No Swimming?

Last week when i was shooting outdoor wedding pictures. Look what i saw. A couple were swimming in a no swimming area. And it was pretty cold that day too. i don't know why they did it. but they were risking their life. They got out of water after a few minutes. They told us this is what 30 years of marriage can do to you.

Good balance in life



It’s always hard to keep good balance between life in photography and family. As I get more jobs shooting weddings, I have to sacrifices family time. It gets harder and harder saying good bye to my daughter Elyse before wedding job. This is a life being a wedding photographer. Elyse grows so fast, I want to be with her as much as I could. I don’t want to miss her first laughter, her first word, her first time calls me daddy...but when I go out shoot a wedding. I am 100% concentrate on my job. The wedding day goes by so quick. At the end of the day, I am exhausted but I felt rewarding that I’ve done my best to shoot the couple’s biggest day of their life.




relaxing weekend


I really should update more often because there are so many exciting things happening to my life, my family and my photography journey….

This is post I wrote early the week but didn’t get a chance to posted on my blog until now.

Last Saturday was very relaxing. I was supposed to shoot a wedding on that day but schedule was changed last minute. So we went to have dim sum with couple of friends. The weather was perfect, not too cold. Elyse seems enjoyed the short trip. She was looking around like everything is new to her. She kept on turning her head around, left, right, left, right. I wonder what she was thinking. Was she thinking at all? I certainly don’t remember the things I saw when I was 5 months old. We bumped into our uncle’s family in the restaurant. Elyse saw another of her cousin the first time. He is around 2 years old. He is shyer than my little elyse. Hahaha. My little elyse was smiling and everyone love her big smile.
