Ming Yuan and Jin Yi

February 24th, 2009 | No Comments

Husband, the photographer; wife, the makeup artist. The Dream Team. The Perfect Partners. Aces Go Places. How wonderful.

This was the second time they teamed up for a wedding (first time was for her colleague’s). Jin Yi is her cousin, and she had in fact just did her ROM makeup one week earlier. On the other hand, it was his first attempt with his new toy camera body to shoot for actual day wedding. He lugged two camera bodies simultaneously, and it was fun! It also marked the first time he shot a church wedding.

Jin Yi really looked marvelous as a bride with her tall figure, fair skin, and most importantly, her angelic sweet face. Of course the makeup artist deserves her credits too ;) . Ming Yuan (aka Mr Principal) on the other hand appeared wonderfully cute and chubby for a bridegroom (yes, the hair helped a lot).

Ipoh Trip 2008

February 12th, 2009 | No Comments

Plenty of backlogs to clear, with all the RAW files sitting in his harddisk screaming to be post-processed since late last year. He shall start with the Ipoh field trip with the usual suspects, right before Guo Loong’s wedding.

After an 8-hour bus trip from Singapore’s Golden Mile Complex, Chern Ye, Poh Yen, his wife and him reached Ipoh at about 6 in the morning. He barely had a wink the whole journey with the stomach grumbling relentlessly. But already he knew what Ipoh had in store for him. Soon after the rendezvous with the rest of the gang at Jye Sheng’s home, they headed towards Foh San Restaurant for dim sum breakfast. It wasn’t exactly easy to get a table to fit nine people during the early morning rush hour, but they didn’t wait for too long either.


Rush Hour


Makan and minum.


All cleared.

Next item in the agenda? More food! And off they went. But just before they entered the next makan place, Yew Nam pointed out an alley that might arouse the interest of the only guy who was lugging his camera all the while. He was darn right.


Nostalgic Alley


Comfort Zone

The specialties of the next coffeeshop was their super-sweet “Dan Dan” (caramel custard dessert) and Chee Cheong Fun. The latter was so good that Wen Ho had 3 servings!
