Sheryl and Liang Wei’s Actual Day Wedding

Sometimes, it’s not about the ostentatious couple’s portraits. As a wedding photographer, artistic, creative shots of the couple have become somewhat of a calling card for me. It’s what I do best, and it’s undoubtedly the work I’m most proud of. However, it’s always good to be reminded that wedding coverage is much more than just fancy abstract photography. Sheryl and Liang Wei’s wedding was one such reminder. Laced between the frenetic energy of the gatecrash games and the epic ballroom aisle marches were quieter moments: A conversation with a friend before the day begins, a groom waiting in his car to fetch his bride-to-be, a quick group photo during tea break. The understated scenes that slip by if you’re not paying close attention.

It is these fleeting interactions that are important to capture and hold.

Make no mistake, there was no shortage of loud electrifying moments. A military procession to rival all others, an audience bursting with laughter, and the longest, loudest yum-seng I’ve experienced in recent memory. Sheryl and Liang Wei (and their guests) made sure that this was a celebration to be remembered for years to come. I for one, am honoured to be able to bear witness and safekeep these memories, both intimate and spectacular alike.
