Tyler and Chuan-Chuan’s wedding in Pulai Springs Johor was so much fun. Both were delightful and had a really nice garden wedding that was fun for everyone who came. Tyler’s a New Zealander and there was definitely some influence coming through during the day. As you can see from their wedding photos it was a great wedding.
I was thrilled when Randy and Yin mei asked me to fly to Boston to be their wedding photographer. After we flew into new York we drove up to Boston for the wedding. It was a perfect autumn day in the historic city of Boston, Massachusetts when Randy and Yin Mei tied the knot. The wedding was in the Paulist Center and then on to Boston Common for the portraits. The reception was at the Hellenic Center in Ipswich. We had covered Randy and Yin Mei’s wedding in Malaysia earlier in the year and were thrilled when they invited us to come to Boston. Both Randy and Yin Mei are classically trained musicians from Juilliard, and we were treated to a beautiful recital by them after the wedding ceremony.
The Hellenic Center is in Ipswich, more than an hour out of town. It was beautiful and refined and the atmosphere was warm and intimate…well at least until the dancing started in earnest. In Randy’s family there is a tradition of tossing the groom. You will see this in one of the last few photos when he is riding on some of his cousins shoulders. He was tossed high enough to touch the roof! I couldn’t watch!
The Boston Red Sox T-Shirt was a wonderful wedding favour. I still wear mine! I would LOVE to go back to cover more weddings in the USA, so if you are intending to have your wedding there do let me know.

This Montage album was designed and produced for Mark and Liz’s wedding in July, 2006 at St Katherines in the village of Teversal, in Nottinghamshire. Their reception was held at Cockliffe Country House Hotel & Restaurant.
Been digging around the archives and finding some of our older weddings. This one was in Tirtha Uluwatu, Bali. We went down in 2005 to shoot this for Victor and Michele. This is the montage poster we produced for them. I will look around to find more photos from their wedding to fill this out later on.
Dushen and Sherri had a huge multi day wedding back in Kuala Lumpur, but had a smaller intimate and really fun filled wedding in Ubud Bali. The first night was a cool chill out at the Jazz Cafe, a well known restaurant and night spot followed the next day with a wedding ceremony put together by their friends. These photos tell part of their story.
Technical: Camera used was the Canon 20D with the 17-40L, 50mm 1.4 and 85 F1.8. Thankfully DSLRs have advanced quite substantially from 2005 as the 20D was put under an enormous stress test with the low light and high contrast situations prevalent in this shoot. Newer cameras like the D3, D800 and D610 would have handled these situations much better and are part of the reason why I switched to Nikon.
