With Estee and Dennis, it almost feels like coming home to photograph family members. There were so many in attendence that I had previously photographed their wedding and seeing these familiar faces made me feel so at ease. I often tell my wife that the hardest part of heading to a wedding shoot personally, was the initial hurdle of having to make everyone feel at ease - with the prescence of a stranger that will be with you the entire day. Glad today wasn’t that kind of day.

Initially, Cheryl was comprehensive about spending on a photographer outside of her bridal packages, but I am so glad she eventually decided to go ahead with it.

”I teared up several times going through the album just a month after the wedding - brought back some moments and emotions that I’ve already forgotten with the hustle and bustle of life. Looking forward to going through the photos again 6 months, a year later - perhaps bringing a new wave of emotions each time. :’)” - Cheryl

When I look back at what she wrote for me, I feel emotional too, tbh. Cheryl was actually also a cousin of one of my graduated couple, so it was good to see familiar faces at an unfamiliar location (yes, shooting at Dusit Thani Laguna for the first time!).

Elizabeth and Sam’s wedding ceremony at Fullerton Hotel. Although they had a proper wedding celebration in the States, they also felt compelled to have one for friends and family residing here in our sunny little red dot too.

It became literally super sunny that day haha.
