Just to share some photos from Ken and Cynthia’s Pre-Wedding Shoot in Malacca some time back. There’s a lot of exciting possibilities when you look at a situation and turn it from dull to interesting by adding lighting and a different perspective. Remember this shot?
Well, this was where we were…
And from this angle…
This was the shot I got… Luckily they did not land on me. Haha…
Looks like a jungle, but it was only 1 minute away from Melaka Raya.
Some time back, I blogged about Ken and Cynthia here – when I shot their pre-wedding photos. On the day of their wedding, Mark and I had such a ball of a time as their photographers. Their wedding was full of joy and laughter. It’s so tough to sort through the thousands of photos that we took to narrow it down to just a few. Here are some of my favourites from the day.
It cracks me up everytime I see this photo of Ken…
Mark took this really beautiful sillhouette shot of Cynthia by the window.
After the games session and the tea ceremony, we headed over to a Catholic church in Setapak for some family portraits. Along the way, we stumbled upon this lake – we had to stop and take some more photos of just the 2 of them!
At about 5pm, the wedding ceremony began at one of the rooms in Hotel Equatorial, KL. These yummy shots below were taken by Mark, with his lovely 85mm lens.
Just look at Ken’s excitement as he waits for Cynthia to walk down the aisle…
And here she comes…
Presenting… Mr & Mrs Ken Hong!
Dinner was held at the Equatorial as well…
Instead of Cynthia coming in as Beauty Queen and waving to the audience, Ken decided that his time is now…
The yam sengs were long and loud… and even this kid below wanted to join in, with his water bottle! Sorry, you’re a little too young for alcohol!
For more photos from the morning session, view the photo slideshow that we created for screening at night. Congratulations, Ken and Cynthia!! We will miss you when you leave us for Dubai. God bless you in your marriage!
[flv:kencynthia.flv kencynthia.jpg 600 480]Cynthia has been an old school friend of mine since I was like 3 feet high. (Ok not that it makes much difference, since I’m only 5 feet tall right now). We have been really good friends since school and have gone through so much together. I knew Ken when I came to KL to work – the first time I met him, I was in the Damansara Utama Methodist Church (DUMC) children’s church. He was there to volunteer. I remember him wearing a earring on one side, looking tough and macho, definitely not a person I’d imagine to have a soft heart for children. But ever since then, I’ve gotten to know him a lot better, and I can safely say that Ken is definitely a caring, thoughtful man. Perfect match for Cynthia, who’s always fun and exciting to be with.
So we headed back to Malacca (where Cyn and I are from) for this photo shoot. Ken is from Penang, but, sorry, it’s going to be a one-sided story for this pre-wedding shoot. We had loads of fun doing silly things together. Congratulations on your wedding, and am looking forward to shooting it this 8th of November!
When we were taking this shot below, a young-ish girl passed by us and said that her brother did the graffiti on the wall. She was a tour guide and along with her were a group of French tourists. Perhaps we should have told her that her brother spelt Malacca wrongly!
Ken trying to do the ‘Bruce’.
I absolutely love this little mini. Alex and I found it when we came to Malacca for a recce a few weeks ago, and were so delighted when we spotted it parked in the same location again on our shoot day!
Both Ken and Cyn love the water – a year back, Cyn surprised Ken underwater on a dive trip by unveiling a little banner that she had made for him. It was his birthday and boy, was he surprised!
Thanks for being silly with me!
