Bridal portrait with Jess and Einstein in Melaka

Celebrating Jess & Einstein

Nothing is more fun taking the wedding portrait of Jess and Einstein together with Jess’s family. Both Jess and Einstein are from Singapore and tied the knot in Singapore. However some of Jess’s relatives are staying in Melaka so both of them decided to have a simple tea ceremony and dinner for their relatives especially grannys who were inconvenient to travel to Singapore for their wedding.

Having a simple ceremony, Jess requested for an outdoor portrait session with her family before the ceremony. We headed to the heart of Melaka town and started the session. Drizzling didn’t stop us from having the fun at all. They were so sporting and non-stop making joke and teasing each other even the parents. There were the clicks of shutters and lots of laughs.

Jess loves the beach so much which made Klebang Beach our next shooting location. Though it was cloudy it didn’t rain when we arrived at the beach, it was cooling! Thank God, luck was on our side. We had another wonderful session with again filled with lots of fun.

Jess and Einstein, thank you both so much for inviting us to be your wedding photographers. Congratulation and we wish you a lifetime of happiness together now and forever!

Here are just a few favorites from the gorgeous day. WelcomEE May!

How the poor live? 什么叫做贫穷?

By CJ Compassion, Photography

One day, a father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose of showing his son how poor people live. They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family. On their return from their trip, the father asked his son, “How was the trip?”
“It was great, Dad.”

“Did you see how poor people live?” the father asked.

“Oh yeah,” said the son.

“So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip?” asked the father.

The son answered, “I saw that we have one dog and they had four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden, and they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lanterns in our garden, and they have the stars at night. Our patio reaches to the front yard, and they have the whole horizon. We have a small piece of land to live on, and they have fields that go beyond our sight. We have servants who serve us, but they serve others. We buy our food, but they grow theirs. We have walls around our property to protect us; they have friends to protect them.”

The boy’s father was speechless.

Then his son added, “Thanks, Dad, for showing me how poor we are.”

一位亿万富豪想让他的儿子体验什么叫作“贫穷”，于是就把他送到乡下的穷亲戚家去亲身体验。他儿子在乡下住了三天三夜。

在回家的路上，他父亲在车里问他：“你觉得怎么样？”

“很不错”，儿子回答。

“乡下跟我们家有什么区别吗？”父亲又问。

儿子说，有许多不一样。

1、我们家有一条狗；他们家有四条。

2、我们家院子里有个游泳池，里面是加工处理过的水；他们家有个大池塘，水很清，里面还游着各种各样的鱼。

3、我们的花园里有电灯照明；他们的院子里有星星和月亮照明。

4、我家的花园一直到围墙边；他们的院子一直延伸到天边。

5、我们买饭吃；他们做饭吃。

6、我们听CD；他们听小鸟、青蛙和其它动物的音乐会，当他们在田里工作时，所有这些美妙的音乐都会伴随着他们。

7、我们使用微波炉做饭；可是他们的木材炊饭比我们好吃的多。

8、我们家四周都是围墙；他们家任何时候门都是开着，迎接朋友们的到来。

9、我们与行动电话，电脑和电视紧密相连；他们与生活紧密相连，蓝天，碧水，绿草，树荫和家庭。

父亲对儿子的观点很吃惊，最后儿子总结说：“谢谢，爸爸！你让我看到我们有多么的贫穷！”

我们一天比一天更贫穷，因为我们已经感受不到上帝为我们创造的大自然。

我们每天想的都是拥有、拥有、拥有、更多的拥有，从来没有想到过存在与奉献。

Celebrating Eva & Bryan

Actual wedding day photography with Eva & Bryan from Melaka

Celebrating Eva & Bryan

Brendon, King and I were pleased to meet Eva & Bryan, and photographed their wonderful wedding in the final quarter of last year.

There are so much to tell about Eva and Bryan two lovely couple from Melaka. We have something in common, as Eva and Bryan are outdoor lover especially for the beach, sunshine, and scuba diving.

Eva was dressed up in a beautiful gown and golden heels in the morning waiting for her man to come for a crazy gate crush session. The playful bridesmaids must have brainstorming the night before for the games which took the groomsmen quite some time to complete them so that Bryan could enter the room and gave the lovely bride a kiss to last a lifetime.

Luncheon reception was held the next day at Equatorial Hotel Melaka. It was sweet and full of romance when the couple marched in after a saxophone lead. A photobooth was also setup near the entrance allowing family and friends to have fun shots together throughout the reception.

There was something really heartbreaking to me and to couple and family, when knowing the passing of Bryan’s beloved father weeks before the wedding. It was an unfortunate timing however Bryan had his family’ support.

Although they missed dad so much, they honored the his memory and carried the wedding ceremony as planned. Lots of hugs and tears happened during the wedding showing the great support and encouragement from family and friends. The moments were emotional yet touching.

We had a great wedding shoot time with Eva and Bryan, and thank you again for having us on your special day. Congratulation on your happy wedding and may you find peace, faith and love in each other’s arms. May all bEE happy.

Family outing with the Murphy’s

By CJ Family portrait, Photography

Meet the Murphy’s

Promised to his children earlier, Murphy decided to bring his wife Ann and children Darren and Valerie to the beach for kite flying after Chinese New Year. He is a busy man with his career, however always does he reserve quality time for the family.

Murphy and I were finding difficulty in scheduling a family shoot which he always wished for. After knowing his plan for kite flying at Klebang Beach on a beautiful evening, I told him I would tag along to have fun with his children, and also to do a casual family shooting with them.

The evening was great for kite flying with warm breeze. It was challenging to get the kite going for the first time, however the kids were surely having lots of fun. We had the portrait done while Murphy and family was having their own sweet time and I just love capturing the cute children and spontaneous joyful moments.

Thank you Murphy and family for inviting me to your outing and allowing me to capture your lovely time!

Sharing some of the shots taken during the outing. More photos available on Facebook juesatta.

May all bEE happy 🙂
