Angela + Patrick Wedding @ Hycroft

When I attended their wedding rehearsal, Angela and their relatives worried about the weather of the wedding day. After suffering from Vancouver's crazy unstable weather, I found the pattern about Vancouver's rain - once we had 2 heavy rainy days, third day would be ok and forth day would be sunny. So I could firmly tell them that no rain for sure!
The Good weather was important to us and Erik (Love Story Media) because we were going to shoot Patrick's motorbike ride during the day. You should check out Erik's energetic SDE (Same Day Edit) video. (I love the plane shot, Erik...)
We are very busy with photo shoots and editing these a few months. I hope I can keep posting new blog posts on time.

Maggie + Sam Post-Wedding Session

Maggie & Sam are newly married couple from Hong Kong. We hadn't met them until the day for the shoot. They often visited Vancouver (Sam's hometown). They had their pre-wedding photos taken in a Hong Kong indoor studio. Therefore, our task was taking outdoor post-wedding photos for them. The interesting thing was their cute flower girl joined the photo shoot, too.

Tanya + Garry Post Wedding Session

Because of our crazy busy bookings, we are not be able to update this blog every week recently. Last weekend, we had 2 client meetings and 3 photo shoots. At the same time, we have some admin stuff to work on. Moreover, we need to spend some time with our Baby Ethan. This little guy is starting to walk a bit. I hope he won't create huge destruction at home.
After a few months of their wedding, Tanya & Garry came to visit Vancouver again and took their post-wedding photo session. This time Tanya wore two beautiful dresses that she didn't have the pictures on her wedding day. We rarely shoot at Gas Town at about noon in Summer. Lots and lots of tourists were around the Steam Clock and along the street. It wasn't easy to get clean shots, but luckily the photo shoot was pretty smooth.

Monica + Tommy Engagement Session @ Stanley Park

Jessie and I spent a fun afternoon with Monica & Tommy. The couple laughed and played very hard during the photo shoot. It made everything so easy and fast. After shooting at Stanley Park, we took some photos in their house. It was a heritage house with a lot of beautiful antique and modern elements for photos. We are going spend an evening with them again this week at Gas Town to take more night shots.  Can't wait! 

P.S. During dinner time, Tommy told us that he wasn't very happy that day because his new wallet (birthday gift from Monica) was scratched badly on the way to Stanley Park. I hope it can be fixed by the shop.

A New Light Source Test

If you follow our blog and know our photo style, you should know we use various light sources in our photos. Today, I tested a new light source other than natural light, video light, and flash (in our garage). See the above photo of Jessie. The light is a bit softer than direct video light. If I added a reflector at the bottom, it would be even better.

Above: It was the rim light test. It looked great, too.

What is it??

It's a 66 LED coreless trouble light for fixing car. Very light weight. Recharging time of the Li-Ion battery is about 3 hours and it operates for 4 hours. The only issue is... it doesn't have a dimmer. However the most interesting thing is I checked the white balance which is the same as the preset "Flash" white balance in Lightroom. More tests will be done when we are free.
