Hedina + Kids

Date: 22 August 2010
Location: Kent, England

This has been my first time photographing personal family portraits. Without the necessity of a superficial studio set, I was allowed to freely capture Hedina and her kids in their own little garden. That vibrant dress is quite striking, and even in a light rain shower, the colours remain vivid as ever. And the kids were genuinely exuberant and up-for-it, striking up all the poses they were asked to do. Bless them. A great big bravo to Maya for organising this little photography sessions. Without her, this wouldn't have been possible. Big hugs.

Jo + Nathan Wedding

Date: 27 February 2010
Location: Kent, England

If you get married in Britain, weather is always a foremost issue. So what do you do when it rains during your wedding day? Smile and break into laughter. Unfazed, Jo and Nathan consider this a blessing in disguise. Despite the pissing weather (perhaps the most challenging element in wedding photography), this couple has shown that whatever comes through their way, the fun never stops. This is also a testament to all the people involved - the ever-cooperative bridesmaids, groom's men, and the family - who all made this event possible. For Jo and Nathan, it's been a genuine pleasure working with this couple, very amenable and never runs out of energy.

Special acknowledgement also to Milan, my associate photographer whose contribution in this entire panoply is tremendous, and to Maya, my manager/agent/publicist who gets things done steadfastly and efficiently.

Here are the preview photographs below.
