Gaven and Joyce’s poolside wedding at the Renaissance Kuala Lumpur

Gaven and Joyce’s wedding day was a mix of traditional Chinese tea ceremonies in the morning followed by a poolside wedding at the Renaissance Hotel in Kuala Lumpur. Afterwards dinner was held in the Grand Ballroom.

Please note the following images have been transferred from my old site when we were all “Internet load speed” compromised. That’s a fancy way of saying that they are of lower resolution than more recent weddings. Think of them as being “mobile device optimized” as they should look great on your phone screen.

Leon and Thushara’s Baha’i Wedding at the Istana Hotel Kuala Lumpur

When Leon and Thushara contacted me to be their wedding photographer I was somewhat at a disadvantage as I had not photographed one before. Bahai weddings are unique, as the couple decide their own vows, their own method of celebration, whether to have an order of service or not….complete freedom! They celebrated their Baha’i Wedding at the Istana Hotel in Kuala Lumpur.

Group Photo at Le Méridien, Kuala Lumpur

Just a quick post today. I was covering an event at the Le Meridien Kuala Lumpur in Sentral this morning for the INCF event. I was asked to do a group photo for it so got to work. Part of a successful group photo is to feel at ease in front of a crowd of strangers and chat away in a good natured manner explaining what you need from them. Once they know you are wanting to make them look good people will work with you. Important when it is warm and muggy outside. Note the smiles and that everyone is visible. I asked some of them to stand on tip toes in order to achieve that.

This photo was taken with a 24mm lens. This focal length is usually classed as too wide for groups shots because people on the corners start to distort. Switching to anything wider would have been very noticeable and introduced branches from the trees that were adjacent to me into the sides and top of the frame. I would have been happier going to 35mm for a more pleasing photo, but in this case it was simply impossible. That said, the hotel was happy and have a copy of the photo for their future clients reference. Thumbs up.
