A recent maternity shoot for Sherry, together with her husband Dennis.
The photography style this time differs slightly from my usual preference of using the environment to tell a story. Since Sherry opted to do the shoot in the comfort of her home with simple and clean backgrounds, we revisited some evergreen classic shots, with the focus and emphasis on her and her baby bump.
A shoot right in the heart of our city this time round for the couple Rita and Michael, who wanted me to capture a series of images for them against some of the iconic landmarks to remember their time by in Singapore, as they may have plans to relocate a few years down the road.
How often are we actually able to celebrate the second chances that our lives have for us?
As Jennie celebrated Rong Qing’s birthday with a photo session for the two of them, more importantly, I guess the shoot also signifies a new chapter of their relationship as they get back together again as a couple for a second time after parting ways several years back.
They had wanted to do a shoot during their previous relationship together but missed the chance to do so as they broke up many years back then. I’m glad to be able to play a part in capturing these moments for them this time round and wishing them all the best as they embarked on this journey together a second time.
Today, as we welcome 12.12.12 (12 Dec 2012), we also celebrate Jessie’s birthday. I was already looking forward to this shoot as this was my first with a beautifully restored classic Volkswagen Kombi (finally, get to see it up close and personal and a joyride home on it after the shoot). Check out the Kombi Rocks website if you intend to rent one for your photo shoot.
I never knew it was such a challenge to look for an open space with greenery where the vehicle can drive up the grass field, though I managed to find this place (and it was illegal) after several recce trips. That’s Singapore, your urban jungle! We worked around the color theme pink and I am actually quite glad the color coordination and combination turns out much better than expected.
Gwen has just graduated from University and wanted to have a portrait session done together with her dearest mum in appreciation of her support and care all these years. Actually, they do not behave like mother & daughter at all but are really like best of friends instead.
It is indeed an inspiring experience to witness this special relationship and chemistry between them and their sporting and sunny dispositions have certainly brightened up my day more than any sunflower does.
Boon Siew and Oliver wanted a non-conventional and more creative approach for their pre-wedding shoot. Being a funny guy himself, we decided to go along with a comical and fun approach to the shoot, just like how the two of them usually behaved, having fun and enjoying each other’s company as a couple.
Thus, ditching the conventional wedding suit and gown, the couple came out with their own wardrobe and locations while I assisted them with the art direction and props. They are a really fun pair to work with and I must say this is one of those shoots which I have really enjoyed myself and could not stopping laughing throughout. Haha!
We were blessed with relatively good weather and light on the late monday afternoon during the photography session with Trisha. I was really hoping for a good and clear sunset but it ended up with the sky turned all cloudy towards the end of the session. Still, it was a fun and enjoyable session, with Trisha being sporty and enthusiastic enough to go along with most of my art direction and suggestion.
Here are a few other extra photos from our shoot:
Let our lifestyle kind of photography and narrative images mark that special occasion for you and your loved ones.
Be it your first year together as a couple or that decade old wedding anniversary, celebrate the occasion in a different light by spending some quiet and intimate moments together in a fun and relaxing photo shoot. At the end of the day, besides having a set of great images to remember the occasion by, may the fun and enjoyable process of making the photographs together brings both of you closer with a deeper understanding and appreciation for each other.
No two individuals are ever the same and that’s what makes photographing people such an exhilarating, challenging and enjoyable process and experience.
From creating images for a personal portfolio to preserving those memorable & precious moments as a couple, siblings, friends or families to the special phases of your life, we aim to depict the real you in the most natural way. Our narrative and creative approach to environmental portraiture is the extra ingredient that makes a picture root to your hearts and we look forward to capturing these moments that will tug at your heart string when you look back years after.
It has always been an inspiring experience to shoot for families and to be able to witness the bonding and chemistry between the closely knitted individuals.
Be it an anniversary to commemorate, a graduation day to celebrate, a casual and joyous day out or even just for the fun of it to remember and show your appreciation for your loved ones who have care and stood by you through the years, we are always ready to make the process a fun and enjoyable one for all of you.
