It’s the second day of Scott Robert Lim’s workshop. I’ve learned sooo much already. It’s amazing being surrounded by all these great photographers from all over the world.
Scott just makes the workshops unforgettable. You just keep learn
Have a look at Scott’s work..u’ll be blown away! http://www.scottrobertgallery.com/ http://www.scottrobertjournal.com/
I can’t wait until the NYC and San Fransisco workshops!
John & Karen’s wedding was on August 8th. I must say that the wedding was absolutely gorgeous. Everything was perfect to the finest detail. On top of that, everything was so well organized - it was just timed perfectly.
The love story was fun to shoot. We shot at UBC, which made for a great backdrop. The engagement shots were done in gas town. Alice and I had a lot of fun setting up poses for the engagement shoot…they came out great! Karen had warned me about how shy John is, but I must say I was very touched with what he said in the love story. Both Karen and John put so much deep thought into their answers. I can’t wait to work on their album!
I always love trying something new and different. Last week I shot John & Karen’s engagement shoot in gas town in Vancouver. We spent about 2 hours shooting in gas town, and then headed over to UBC to film their love story.
John & Karen were great to work with. They had a great dynamic, and were willing to try anything. I have an entire gallery posted on my Facebook page…but here are a few to look at.
I just shot Markon & Marie’s wedding last Saturday. It was a great day. The wedding was at the Law Courts restaurant in downtown Vancouver. The venue was beautiful, and the view of downtown made an awesome back drop. Markon & Marie are quite the couple. They both have huge hearts and care so much about the people around them. On top of that, Markon is hilarious he’ll have you laughing until your stomach hurts in no time,
I filmed there Love Story about a month ago. I must say it was an entertaining experience filming this love story. It was played at the reception and it was a riot. I was really happy to see how it grabbed everyones attention from start to finish. Have a look below. Watch it in HD!
I’m getting quite excited about an upcoming photography seminar in Victoria BC. It will be taught by Scott Roberts. He is an amazing photographer who specializes in weddings. You can view his work here http://www.scottrobertphotography.com/ I love his very unique style and the fact that he is always trying to do something different. Being in Victoria for 4 days is going to be a nice break from my regular stressful days in Vancouver. I’ve heard nothing but great things about his seminars, so I’ll be sure to pass on the knowledge when I get back!
I went up to Whistler a few weeks ago with some friends. It was a much needed day off. We went Zip Trekking, which I highly recommend. They basically strap you to a thin cable and then send you flying at about 50km/h over jagged rocks and trees. I had actually done it before, but this was a different tour than the one I had done before. I wanted to follow it up with some bungee jumping, but I couldn’t convince anyone to join me. Next time!
I’ve been working on multiple projects for the past few weeks. It’s getting busier and busier for me, which is awesome!
I have posted a trailer for Zab and Nancy’s wedding below. I highly recommend watching it in full resolution - just click on the “HD button” on the right side of the screen. I’m now shooting with a Sony V1U, a huge upgrade from my GL2. HD is the way to go!
I’ve been super busy for the past few weeks with wedding shoots and love story interviews. My desktop computer is busy capturing video from my camera so I thought I would take a few minutes on my laptop and post another video.
This video was shot at Queen Elizabeth park earlier this month. It was a really fun shoot as it usually is. Zab and Nancy were a great couple to work with. Zab is quite entertaining to be around. He’s the type of guy that will make you laugh without even trying. After spending the evening with Zab & Nancy at the park I knew there upcoming wedding was going to be a blast to shoot.
I went to my friend Lawrence’s wedding over the weekend. The ceremony was held at Minoru chapel and the reception/dinner was at Harbor center. It was certainly a memorable event.
I’ve known Lawrence since our high school days. He’ll be moving to Seattle soon for work. I’ll miss having him at my place for birthday parties etc.. At least Seattle is not far away at all…
I’ll be posting a slide show of photos from the wedding on my blog soon, but I chose one photo I really like to post now.
