June 7 photography assignment

Lau Tzun Hon (far right) and family
The wait
Elizabeth Chia nee Elizabeth Lau - the bride
Making her entrance - accidental shot
Taking the marriage vow..

I hate weddings. It sucks when people engage you on a job that zaps your energy and for the whole day, made to run around like a headless chicken. As a matter of fact, it was my first wedding photography assignment in 10 years.

I keep a low-profile when people ask on whether I shoot weddings or not. I don't have the equipment nor the patience to deal with families and fussy folks who wanted this and that. And since my in-laws had requested, and the wifey had put in the word, I felt obliged.

Anyways, spent the entire Saturday taking shots of Michelle's cousin's wedding in Church, tea ceremony and the dinner. With alcohol still running in my blood, I felt wasted and I didn't know how I sprained my left index finger -- my bread and butter body part...

Oh, well, here are some samples I shot on my Canon Powershot G-7 on Saturday. Played with the B&W and colour mix feature on the camera. And yeah, the angpow given was also SUCKY! Saving grace was the dinner, great company of some of Michelle's relatives and the good food including lots of beers!

Fuahhhh!! Four years and going!!!!

On Saturday, we celebrated four years with a simple dinner at home.. Well, here's to a lifetime ahead of us!

I remember the week before I got legally married to Michelle. We were rather busy and nervous as final preparations were made to book a date at the registrar of marriage in Petaling Jaya. When the day came, it was our happiest moment.. We signed the papers and that was it! I had to rush down from Malacca to formalise the legal paperwork with my aunt and mother in-law as witnesses.

Alas, the real day came on Dec 19, 2004. We threw a dinner and the rest was history. My wife knows me like a book and best of all, she knows where I keep my knives and how to use them.. *gulp!* Anyways, a woman who loves knives, travel, beer, good food and fishing can be my life partner! *heeheheee!*
