A Timeless Style of Photography
How soon do you think this First Day Portrait of Baby Lucius was taken?
Mummy Denise gave Baby Lucius a really nice name. Lucius meaning “light” or “to shine” also goes well with the characters of his Chinese name, which has the word “Sun”. May Lucius live up to his name and brightens everyone in his life like the warm rays of the Sun.

William’s best man, Adam was giving the opening speech to the wedding day’s church ceremony. He was advised by William to keep it short and simple. How did the speech go? I’ll let you figure that out from the little girl’s expression. ; )

Some images from the wedding celebration.
Unlike Shan, William’s room do not get the best of natural lighting from the sun as it is shielded by neighbouring flats and had only a small corner window. The only available light before the sunrise comes from the ceiling florescent. As light bounce off the walls and take with it their colours, there is a tint of cool cast in the images caused by the blue and green walls. In post-processing, however, I was able to make the colours warmer.
The day began early and I started at William’s place with a cup of coffee. Michel, my associate photographer was assigned to be at Shan’s. Kenneth came in at about 0630am to style William’s hair before making his way to Shan’s to do hers. Thank goodness the couple stay near each other. At about a quarter past 7am, William begins his preparation as I click away.
Looking back now, it somehow dawn on me that the images look a little like a Gatsby commercial. Perhaps I’ve subconsciously been impressed from watching too many Gatsby commercials on YouTube featuring Takuya Kimura. In case you’re wondering why, it is because William, Shan and I once had a discussion about that corny yet funny Gatsby facial wash commercial so I went on YouTube to look up more Gatsby ads as I recalled how wacky and entertaining they were.
I just love singing along to that catchy tune of
“I~~~ will give you Gatsby~ Gatsby~~ Gatsby~~~”

The first thing I felt when I stepped into Shan’s room was the sheer presence of the golden morning sun shining in from the windows behind her.
It is moments like this that you truly feel that a wedding is blessed.
The magnificence of the light made my job easy in photographing Shan. But of course the make-up and hairstyling helped too, and not forgetting the beautiful gown from Silhouette The Atelier. Not trying to make all this sound like an advertisement, I also want to add that the florist did a fine job with the bouquet too. My policy is that I will not fail to give credit to where credit is due. Gratitude is a virtue.
I love roses, especially the cream and champagne ones.
Note: Sorry I don’t have the contact for the florist at time of writing. I’ll update once I get it from William+Shan when they are back from Tokyo. Yes, they are blissfully having their honeymoon there.

It’s another long title (what is it with me on long titles this week?) but I feel it appropriate for this image. The words are from an Elvis Presley song. Can you recall which one? And can you feel this magic too?
