Sze Wan and Wen’s wedding was all about the BLING BLINGS. Did I tell you I love details? I can spend all morning shooting them. Lolz. Sze Wan had details after details ranging from Christian Louboutin, Jimmy Choo, Tiffany, Cartier, Badgley Mischka etc.

Here is a teaser from my first Indian and Chinese wedding. More details to come about their love story and wedding.

Barbara and Kai have known each other for 1/2 of their lives and they finally cross path again 8 years ago. Their wedding reception took place at a very modern chic venue out in Glen Cove, Long Island called The Metropolitan Club. We had a great outdoor photo session at The Planting Field. The weather was extremely beautiful for a November weekend with great fall foliage. Enjoy these couple of teasers.

What a way to celebrate gay pride in New York this weekend. Governor Cuomo made it official by signing the bill to legally marry gay couples. It’s a great pleasure and honor to witness history in the making. I am very thankful as a wedding photographer I had a chance to photograph Jaclyn and Stephanie’s lifestyle session 3 summers ago in Coney Island. They were married a few years back in Vermont since New York did not legalize gay marriage. I am sure Jacklyn and Stephanie are celebrating this wonderful news. Below are some photos from Jaclyn and Stephanie’s lifestyle session. Enjoy!
