Wedding Photography on Loh and Eiein’s Big Day at MyTwentyFive.com

Last weekend when our country was celebrating the 51st National Day, my friend Loh has officially declared formation of his family, with his wife Eiein.

Wedding event is always a good opportunity to learn photography. Even though tiring, but the experience and new skills that you will gain from the 1-day hands-on session couldn’t be easily compared to other events.

You will learn to anticipate and expect what will happen next, what are the moments to shoot, when to use flash, and where you should stand to secure a more strategic position.

Eiein is a Malaccan, but she was using a triple storey house in Happy Garden for her wedding. Out of my expectation, there was a lot a lot people in her house, rendered the shooting situation tough. Most of the time, I lifted my camera above my head and shoot haha, ‘cos I couldn’t secure the front-line position.

There was a friend of Loh, using Olympus DSLR attached with flash gun, looks pro. So ok la.. even if I couldn’t get good shots for Loh and Eiein also doesn’t matter haha, no pressure

These are some pics to share. You may browse the complete album by thumbnail or slideshow at Flickr.
