I recently had the privilege of capturing one of the most stunning Tinghun ceremonies I’ve ever witnessed. I’ve seen my fair share of these beautiful Chinese engagements, but this one truly took the cake when it came to jaw-dropping colors and intricate details. Now, you know how the traditional red gown usually steals the show,...
For this set with Jarvis and Geline, we traveled before sunrise for a day in the city of Pattaya. Our first stop was an elephant sanctuary where we worked with these gentle giants. It was my first encounter with these magnificent creatures, and I must admit, words hardly do justice to the awe-inspiring moment. We...
The pandemic has taught us a lot of things, and one of them is that love can flourish even in the midst of a crisis. The story of Manuel and Nicole is a perfect example of that. In fact, the situation may have even strengthened their bond because they had to communicate more deeply and...
When it comes to pre-wedding photoshoots, many couples often dream of exotic destinations like Paris or Santorini. But tucked away in the heart of Southeast Asia lies a gem that is often overlooked: Thailand. A couple of months ago, we had the privilege of embarking on a two-day shoot with Jarvis and Geline.

The makeup and hair need...
It’s been discovered that what makes the experience of listening to music enjoyable is anticipation. Our brains figure out the pattern of the song, and a rush of dopamine hits the pleasure center of our brain just before the refrain. The same thing happens when we ride a rollercoaster: it’s the split-second of stillness before...
A Ting Hun is just one of the traditions that we encounter with Chinese weddings. For some, it is just as important as a wedding and that’s why we capture it similarly—complete with portraits and family photos before the event. It also has a series of parts but to put it simply, it’s like the...
GB had taken the ring out of his pocket while Coreen was looking away, still laughing about a Notting Hill comment that he made a few seconds ago. When she looked back at him, he had the ring out and all noise fell away. So much so that GB had to ask what Coreen’s answer...
Being wedding photographers, our ultimate job is to capture the love. And we’re not just talking that of the two people about to get married, we’re talking about the whole celebration. Because at the end of the day, it’s also our role to capture the love filling up the entire place–the love of friends and...
