Post processed with Aperture and Photoshop CS4.
Introducing the soon to be newly wedded couple:
Teri.
She’s getting ready for her big day.


She looks so elegant. A natural portrait.

And The Groom , Steven.
He looks so relaxed. Like after this day, their nothing he can’t accomplish.

On our way to the Bride’s resident. You see how happy Steven is?

The groomsmen have to buy their way into the brides resident. Luckily… Jay is an expert in bargaining.

Finally in. The couple gives their respects by offer tea to their parents. A chinese tradition.

The parent’s is giving the soon to be newly weds their blessing… along with other things.

She’s out and ready to start her journey into the first day of her new life with Steven.



She show me how much Steven loves her.

Arriving at our photo location. Steven is still smiling.

The driver took out a bottle of champagne for Steven. Took him at least 5 minute to pop the cork out of the bottle.

Everyone making a toast to the soon to be newly wed.

Group photos of the bridal party.


Some couples shot by the sandy beach coming up.



We were deciding who will be strong enough to pick up Steven. No one seems to want to volunteer.


Please don’t drop them.


Great lights under the shade… perfect for portraits.

Some photos of the bridal party goofing off.





We don’t know where Steven and Teri went.

Arriving at our venue — Jericho Terrace.

The Groomsmen are taking a little break as the Bride and her Mates are getting ready for the ceremony.

In the dressing room, the best man shows me the wedding band. Teri was relief that he remembered to bring it.

One quick portrait by the window.

One last look at herself… take a deep breath… She’s ready…

The parents, Minister, Brides Mates, and the flower girls are all gracefully entering the chapel.

The father walks her daughter down the white carpet… just a few more seconds before he give her away.


The Brides Mates.

And the Groomsmen.

As you can see, the parents are very proud of this moment.

As they exchange their wedding band, the minister pronounced them Man and Wife.
With no hesitation ,Steven went for the kiss before the minister said "you may kiss the bride"


Emotions were everywhere.

Congratulations to the newly wedded couple. Teri and Steven Lee.

After the ceremony, the pretty mates needed to freshen up for the reception. And of cause for more portrait photos.


This one is my favorite.



He wanted to be in the shot. But the girls weren’t impressed.

On the way out to the reception hall… more portraits.

The ambience was so beautiful in the reception hall. Even after the sun went down.

More decor of the hall.

A few shot of what was in for us at the reception.
Yes, that IS a roast pig with a strawberry as it’s eyes. Can’t have a chinese wedding without a roast pig.

The MC is re-telling the story of Teri and Steven. How it all begins. Turn’s out Steven was a very shy boy.
Teri was giving all the signal, but Steven just don’t get it.

Their first dance. Everybody was watching.


… and follows by dances with the brides’ father and the grooms’ mother.

After the dances with the parents, Steven can’t wait to let loose and get down.

Teri shows him how to REALLY boogie down.


And the bouquet goes to…
Congratulations once again.
