Celine and Nicolas – Solemnization

I have had an amazing time with Celine and Nicolas. While the sweet and gentle Celine is a Singaporean, Nicholas is a charming and humorous Mauritian Chinese who can easily pass as a local Singaporean from the way he speaks. We had some spare time to take outdoor pictures before their solemnization in Shin Yeh. They are such a great couple to work with.

Not unlike a retro studio shot. And it took a less than a minute to sneak in and out of this place and grab a shot.

Mum was touched to tears.

Shang Ping and Gim Cheng – Solemnization

To say that Shang Ping is one of the nicest person he has ever worked with does not seem to do much justice to the guy. Anyway, when Mr Nice Guy approached him to take some photos for his solemnization lunch, he accepted the task gladly.

The lunch took place in Peony Jade Restaurant in Clarke Quay. It was a casual and relaxing afternoon affair with close friends and relatives.

It was also probably the most fun photo shoot he has taken so far, because there were so many adorable kids around.

After the lunch, they proceeded to the nearby Fort Canning Park for some extra photo taking. The day ended with a tea-break in Park Mall’s Dome.

Singapore River Festival 2008 – Legenda Singapura

As part of the Singapore River Festival 2008, the Legenda Singapura held in front of The Central is an hour-long journey of music, dance and puppetry, showcasing Singapore River’s colourful heritage and its transformation into a modern metropolis. The fact that Jovie was involved in the makeup for the dancers has auto-included him to lug his camera and arrive at the scene on a lazy Saturday evening.

The performance was mesmerizing with a mixture of multiracial, traditional and modern dances and spectacular lighting. Instead of the usual 50mm 1.8, he experimented with his 55-250mm IS on ISO 800 this time.

The Singa has been creatively adapted with a lion-dance. Even a cook sneaked out of kitchen to watch.
