Raymond gives me the hardest work to do – selecting images for the album and designing them as they were my own albums. I find it especially hard to do the selection cos there are simply too many beautiful images I want to put in the album. Which explains why I need a little longer time when it comes to the making of a wedding album. Selection process itself already take up quite some time, and then we’ll need to do some further editings on the selected images for the album before doing the designing to bring out the best of the day’s story. I’m currently working on a few album layout, and I can’t wait to show them to the couple once it’s done!!

Hmm… anyway, here are a few images from Christopher and Stephanie’s actual day wedding held in St Regis. I’m in love with Stephanie’s shoes and gowns, and I’m sure many ladies will share the same sentiment as me!!

Sometimes I can get very long winded, so this time round I’ll try to let the pictures do the talking. Enjoy!

I was typing away when suddenly the National Anthem starts playing from Raymond’s Pc.  How randomly awesome is that?

I’m Sulin and I’m the new fridge digger/newspaper girl and oh yes the new D.I Artist to join Raymond Phang Photography. So far working with Raymond and Angeline has been really fun and I’m learning loads everyday. 

Like not locking the toilet door when you need to pee because somehow inexplicably the door refuses to unlock after that. Making you look like a fool banging on the door screaming for your dear life in hopes that someone will rescue you.

I’m sure that you, dear constant reader, will be curious as to how I look like but unfortunately I do not have a recent photo of myself yet. Maybe I’ll take one of myself this monday when I’m dressed in something more atas haha! (I learnt that from Raymond and Angeline too ) I’m such a quick learner aren’t I?

Anyways this is just a quick introduction about myself  and I’m looking forward to growing together with the family/company!

Till the next time I post another entry!

One of the Lagoon suites out facing the waters.

Somehow i have no idea how come the Bollywood theme came about. Wahaha. Must be the jet lag! (excuses) Oh and there is this bag of roses at the left hand side of the room. Over looked it until i came back home. LOL.

Look at how much rose petals we wasted. Their pillow fight ends up with plenty of roses instead of feathers. Haha.

Thinking about it now, i think i should just scrap the flower idea and just get the couple shot. Duh!

I bet it must have felt damn good because Russell really fell asleep! Haha!

Here’s Chris, Rachel’s companion and boy is this guy awesome! Helped me out by holding lights, tripod and other stuff! Bro you are a real gem! Couldn’t do the shoot without you man! By the way the Hermits are still surviving! And like i promised, i will bring back their offsprings to Maldives! Haha!

Thats Russell and his manager, Boa. Incredible woman with big friendly smile all the time! Lovely!

We were heading out on a sunset cruise and because the beaches are shallow, we have to take the smaller ferry (above) and “transit” to the bigger yatches (below) where we had awesome finger food and sipped champagne.

Thats to mark attendance that i am there. Haha!

One of our Taiwan visitors. Angeline says she is pretty! Me thinks so too! Muwahahhaha!

Dolphins, sunset and champagne…what else to expect man!

Did some casual shoots for Rachel & Chris!

Clubmed has free flow alcohol & food so guys who try to use the usual pick up line of buying drinks for the ladies don’t really work well here. Lol!

Endless partying!

Bayan tree. Even with the fisheye lens i cant capture everything. Imagine how big and old that thing is!

O_O!

The place is so nice and romantic that i think all married couples should go! The place speaks of FUN too if you are into water activities. A pity 1 out of 3 days was raining while we are there hence we didnt get any water sports shots.

Pretty heavenly place i would say! waking up breakfast in bed! Fishies can see you shower too! haha

Doing abit of yoga or like the locals called it, “sunset moves” although there wasn’t any sunset as it was pretty cloudy.

And then i saw it! Was walking along the bridge and peek down into the waters. It was pitch dark but there was this light shining into the water and i guess the stingray was attracted to it and lurk around for quite some time. Guess its feeding time for him! Nice!

Perfect logo for this location!

Village Chief, Gianni Merone, together with his team of GOs. That amazing guy can speak 5 different languages! (French-English-Italian-Spanish-Portuguese) and i taught him the 6th! Ni Hao! LOL!

Had some fun with them jumping.

Here they are asking you to GO! Go to Clubmed Kani for fun, sun and everything possible!

Regards,

Raymond Phang

Raymond and I never got to meet Sam in person, nor had the chance to interact with him via email before their wedding. He was always CC-ed in our mails, but he never replied. *Folds arm*. Haha! Guess he must be really busy, since he’s based in Australia! So Raymond and I started forming and creating impressions of this mysterious Sam in our heads. Honestly I imagined him to be a little cold and aloof, quite like a typical busy working adult. But I was soooo wrong when Raymond returned from their wedding shoot and told me how nice a person Sam actually was! Very warm and approachable, relaxed, understanding and patient! O_O”!

He seems like a nice guy from the pictures Raymond took on their wedding day, and I actually got to meet the couple during our trip to Sydney last 2 weeks! They were so nice to drive down all the way from Bankstown to Lane Cove/Artarmon/North Sydney where we were located! Gave us a lot of tips and advices on where to go, what to do, and the must go must see must do stuffs! Hahaha! Sam is pretty humorous in his own way, and with the anything-also-can-laugh-about Michelle, they definitely make an awesome match together!!

That’s Michelle!

I thought this is a really nice shot.

Nah, this is Michelle’s brother, not Sam.

A lot of couples commented that Raymond has a fetish for feet. Muwahahahahaha! I secretly suspect so! Cos I always catch him peepin at my dirty ugly peanut toes. =_=”

Here’s the gang of brothers! All air flown from Australia! So nice of them to help out!

I think they’re not used to all these evil gate crashing things back in Australia for weddings, but Sam and his brothers were game enough to have a little fun!

I feel like eating these shoes cos it looks good. Hahahaha! =p

See, I’m not lying! She’s laughing so hard again! =p

Michelle’s daddy and mummy.

Muwahahaha! I think this one is good!! Mummy giving daughter a face lift or something? =p Love the expression on the kid.

Very appropriate! Hahahaha! Michelle is always the one with the big laughter!

Glad the couples are having fun! Raymond was telling me how relaxed and enjoyable he felt when he was photographing their wedding! No rush, no hurry, and the pace was just nice.

Love this one too! Gives me a very koreanish colour, and somehow the image just appeals to me.

I particularly like this one too!

This is what they call laugh until rock forth and backwards.

Doesn’t this image somehow links to the image above? I guess he wanted a kissy kiss too! Muwahahahahaha~

Okie dokie! Phew! Still got a lot of images from actual day wedding to share! Will try to keep the updates consistent! Meanwhile, enjoy the weekend ya? Cheers!

Lots of ♥,

Anyway, here are some images from Ho Wei and Eileen’s wedding in June! Met up with Ho Wei few months back to pass him the images, and glad the couple enjoyed the photos!  

Raymond particularly like this image for the composition.

While I myself particularly like this one!! I like the overall composition, as well as the expression in her eyes! I love it!

So sweet!

Eileen was full of smiles that day.

I think it’s because Raymond wasn’t wearing a skirt/dress! Otherwise that guy’s expression would change to something corny and horny. Muwahahahahaha!!

Here’s the groom!

This is Hsiao Hui, and we’ll be there for her actual day wedding photoshoot next year in January!

Sneaky sneaky…

I like this one too! Love her “rolls eye” expression on this one. Muwahahahaha!

The mums having their face painted.

Where’s Raymond?

Love this one too!

The lovely wedding cake. Has anyone ordered a full real wedding cake before? Wah i think if it’s delicious, i’m gonna finish the entire cake by myself even if it takes me 3 days!

Oh that’s Qi Wei on the right, Hsiao Hui’s hubby tubby!

The emcees announcing the march in.

I still remember the time I attended wedding dinner as a little kid. The music played for march in was totally different from now! So many things have changed, from the songs to the decors to the design and evolution of wedding gowns! Perhaps in many generations to come, our grandchildren will have their wedding banquet under the sea, where guests use their chopsticks to pick fishes they like to eat and they eat it fresh like sashimi. O_O”!

Or maybe high up in the sky where they get to pour syrup over the clouds and eat candy floss? I don’t know, but for sure things will continue to evolve in time to come. Scary!

Preparing for the second march in.

Champagne popping time!

Have always loved this segment cos every person’s expression is different when they pop the champagne! But definitely it’ll end will big smiles and hearty laughs! Hmm… is there any couple who cries after popping the champagne cos they’re scared of the “pop” sound? =/

I like Eileen’s chin and jawline cos they are so distinct. Mine are all meshed up together that sometimes I cannot even tell which is the neck and which is the chin and which is the jaw! Don’t believe? I’ll show you!

Like this!!

Gained too much weight already. *sobs*! But I can’t stop eating, and resistance is futile when it comes to yummy food! OH!! I have so many things to blog about! Speaking of food, the nasi lemak RICHARD cooked was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo YUMMY!!!!! I can eat a whole container of his ikan bilis with peanut, and the rice itself without anything else!! Wah you guys should go and befriend Richard! We were suggesting to him the other day to make a cooking lesson video. With every dish he cooks, he’ll pretend it’s too hot and warm, and remove one piece of garment. Confirm a hot seller. MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! =p

Ho Wei’s daddy.

Guess the speech must be really touching. Sometimes when I see images like this, I’d wish I was there as well so that I can listen and know what’s going on.

Fun time now! Who says only girls are “camwhores”!?

A happy neverending ending!!

Congratulations once again to all couples who are already married, planning to get married, and are getting married!

I’m a little groggy and drowsy now from the medication. Caught some flu/cold over in Sydney during the last day when we drove back from Brisbane to Sydney. It was a super long drive, and we kept dozing off. It was raining, road was long and some extremely winding. Our tyres skidded a couple of times, but luckily we survived. Haha! Alright, more updates soon ya? Cheers!

Here’s Ting Yin!

And that’s Ting Yin’s brother in the mirror!

They had a purple theme wedding and one of the sisters gamely bought down a purple scarf together with a purple wig! Well done!

Loved this picture because you can see plenty of action and plenty of things at different layer thru-out the room!

Ting Yin’s father!

Finishing touches done and Raymond can’t resist sneaking a peek to appear in the picture. Muwahaha

That’s Koh and his merry men.

Voting to see who gets the best pose…..

And obviously the groom gets the winning pose!

Open up open up!

The boys had a hard time with dances and singing and the earlier yoga poses.

Contract signing!

With thumb imprinement! O_O

Finally a winning kiss from the queen!

“Ka-ching!”

A quickie in the lift lobby before getting home.

“Weeeeeeeeeeeee~~”

As usual, Raymond’s car shots are in my favorite list

Very cool rims!

Still having plenty of fun with the wig. Haha.

The classic Singaporean flower toss where nobody wants the flower. Haha.

daddy & mummy

Feels like some old school make up artist studio with the lightbulbs all round the mirror! Haha.

Half eaten dinner for bride and groom. I think if is Raymond and I there won’t be any left overs at all. Haha.

Raymond the botak again stealing the limelight again. Haha.

Love the silhouette of dad teaching his kid how to walk. Sort of heart warming and touching at the same time.

The charming Ting yin and suave Koh, both getting ready for solemnization.

Winking and laughing to her friends that she finally has a ring on her finger! Haha. Ting yin’s such a sweet heart.

Reality finally sets in and Ting yin can’t believe she is really getting married to koh as memories of their past and present and even future sets in. Really love to see couples during the ceremony as the most exchange of emotions take place.

Band of brothers

Reception @ Legends – Fort canning

“GASP!”

Why are all these girls crazy over me!?”

Must be someone farted and went away and left this uncle to smell. Wahahaha.

This looks like Koh is digging his nose! But is actually scratching the side la. Raymond’s so naughty to capture that! Haha.

Bubbles, confetti and everything else!

Food for everybody!

“Let me teach you how to eat noodles! Haha!”

“Second march in this time round I must hit their faces with this tube….”

Rock on man! You guys are amazingly fun!

The champagne bottle cork popped unexpectedly. Haha.

Koh’s band of brothers really worked hard at the yum seng toast. Raymond came back with one ear deaf. Haha.

Lotsa hugs and kisses from their friends and buddies. Some really touching moments here and there which really brings the mood.

And to end it all off with a classic photo shot.

It’s been a blast to have us down documenting your day Koh and Ting yin. Your dedication and love for each other despite everything that’s in your path really thought us something which is to always cherish whatever we have. You guys rock and we salute for it!

While Raymond is busy messing up and adding sands + dusts, here I am attending to the backlogs of emails to clear and blog update. My turn will come to do the cleaning later on when he’s done. The messing up is fun, but the cleaning up is not. Grrrrr…. =_=”

Will reply the comments once we’re done! Kelvin’s and Richard’s. Hungry now, thinking of Richard’s Nasi Lemak. Will fix a date very soon k? Cheers!!

Lots of ♥,

*Faints and concuss from excessive laughing!*

Actually it’s not his bum, but it’s something edible! Raymond took this during one of his shoot. Make a guess, and have fun! Muwahahaha! Cheers!
