Justine & Brian

For the last 8 years, I’ve helped countless wedding couples document perhaps the most important day of their life and I’ve always been known to be the man behind the lens for as long as I could remember. Came Feb 22, it was finally my turn to settle down and for a change, I’m the man in front of the lens. The feeling was very surreal.It almost felt like I’m attending yet another wedding but this time it was mine.

For those who have known me for a while, you’ll know I’m a film photographer. My wife Justine is also an avid film photographer and has a mean collection of lomo cameras. We also love things that are handmade. So, we really wanted the wedding to be very representative of what we love – film photography + handmade stuff. That’s how we came out with the idea of the “film canister invite” and decided to hand make most of our wedding stuff.

One question I’ve always been asked as a wedding photographer – who would be the photographer for my wedding? That task fell to my two associates, Benny Ong and Tony Eng, both are excellent wedding photojournalists in their own right. In fact, over the years, I’ve had the privilege of meeting some the best talents in the wedding industry, many whom I regard as close friends now. I’m honoured that some of them were part of my wedding, contributing their special touches in their own unique way.
