I was given the opportunity to capture my friend Nick's "Teochew style" wedding last Sunday. This is my first wedding day shoot assignment and when I heard the reporting time, I almost fainted. 4am?! First thing that appeared in my mind was "What time do I need to wake up in order to reach the bride's house punctually?". I definitely couldn't shoot with natural light since it was still dusk. Flash photography would be required which happens to be my less preferred style.
Next was the details of wedding banquet. 60 table shots would have to be taken within 2hrs as requested by the wedding couple. That meant that the timing for the guests of each table to be ready for the shoot and to take each shot must be within 2mins. I asked Mark for help in this wedding assignment and thus there were 2 photographers and 1 videographer (Nick's Brother) covering the whole day event. I actually preferred taking candid shots during the wedding banquet but due to the sheer number of tables and the tight programme schedule, I could not really capture much candid shots. But I must say I really enjoyed the whole process of the wedding and the banquet. Nick and Fionn, thanks for inviting me to be your wedding photographer and to share your happiest moments on your wedding day.
