I had great fun yesterday capturing the inspirations of Derek and Michelle. This wasn't any wedding. Both Derek & Michelle is my childhood friends in church - capturing this lovely moments with them together with their ever fun loving bridal party, brings great joy to me. This 2 photos shows how much fun and joy Derek & Michelle has been sharing, and will be sharing together, and with everyone;)

Finally!! After a long wait, our Exclusive Cloth Bound Wedding Album is here! With genuine leather on the outside and velvet on the inside - this album brings a vintage classy feel to your wedding album. That's not all! It's built with a mini drawer for up to 4 CDs / DVDs!
The album - The cover of the wedding album is wrap with cloth, printed with your desired image on it. 30-pages with matte finish flush mounted into a beautiful wedding album to retain lovely memories of your wedding photography images.
Use - The full build of this album is not to be carried around, but display in your very own home where friends, relatives or guest can view.
Why - We decided on this big version of wedding album to work away from the traditional wedding albums which may end up as a white elephant. Coming out with this design, together with our custom printer, we envision this album to be part of a couple's display unit in the home. Not just a display unit, but one with memories that will last a lifetime.
Purchase - Due to the construction and material use for this album, this album doesn't come cheap, but at the same time, we have decided to price it reasonably.
For more enquiries on the pricing, kindly email us: enquiries@inspiration-photography.com
My wife and I had a chance to document the fun, laughter and joy of Joon Yan and Shirley's family. Their boys are really full of energy! Waoh! Very fun and cute!
We will like to apologies for a major glitch in our blog with the commets portion. As our blog is a customized template for faster upload and update. One of our photographer clicked the wrong button... and all comments from Feb & March disappeared.
If you realize that your comment has vanished, we are so sorry for this bad and embarrassing mistake. Do feel free to type it again:(
People always wonder where and how we manage to process photos without getting confuse with files transferring to and fro from 3 photographers. Here is where and how everything gets done with the right procedure and stored for safety. Our office is equip systematically to avoid any lost of information, and also to ensure quality delivered.
We've got 1 more iMac coming in end of this month for better work-flow, and 1 Mac Pro likely to come in in July.
We're currently still in the midst of putting up more shelves and cupboards for more storage space and more hard-drives.
We realised that we've miss out showing off out cozy loft where we meet couples. It's in our humble 5-room flat in Compassvale where Ezra and his wife converted one of the room into a meeting room where couples can feel cozy and relax while viewing the inspirations captured by our photographers.
We've got a wide screen TV to showcase our work of inspirations.
When I met up with Quentin & Liza at my meeting loft, I got pretty stress when I came to know that Quentin runs a creative consulting firm, and his a creative director too. Why stress, he knows his stuff! haha, well, but that's just a moment. Out meet up went great, laugh, chat and more laughter... covering their wedding was a breeze! It was really fun too, besides the challenging lighting situation, but it was filled with emotions that got me tearing too... haha... oppsss.. shhh...
Quentin was preparing some very interesting slides for their guest
the muslim wedding tradition
did some shots for them in Hort Park after the lunch buffet
Quentin peeking...
Quentins' half Scottish... bagpipes march the couple in...
this is the emotional part... it's my favourite part actually :)
Remember Derek & Michelle? Yup! here are more images of their engagement session.
Their getting married in July, so it's coming up pretty fast. Their friends in Singapore are going to be busy, as Derek is base in New York and Michelle is base in Perth, so they're gonna need a lot of help:)
well... I'm looking forward to their wedding:)
ermmm... nope, I don't think Michelle supports Arsenal... heh
We went to a supermart for this part...
This was our last shot before someone chase us out... heh
I'm not sure why Six:Love, but it just looks good... :)
Had the joy to cover Gary and Li Chin's ROM at the beautiful Keppel Club. Li Chin's place is the other side of the island for me so was up reaaalllly early but haha they were so much fun so it was well worth it!
They had this really cutest personalised pair of converse sneakers to wear for their ROM and was so animated throughout their ceremony, such joy!
Haha well I'll leave you with some snippets from their ROM session. Amazing couple and thank you both for allowing me to be there!
The ever-so-loving couple... Derek & Michelle, flew back to Singapore to settle their wedding arrangements for July and have some wonderful shots taken too! It was really FUN!!
This really goes way back... I knew both Derek & Michelle in church, and I think I was primary 6 and they were primary 5... haha...
Of course their relationship did not start at that age... haha... but I must say, seeing the love between both of them really brings joy, and yes, it brings joy to the photos too!! A... LOT.... of JOY!!
Here are some teaser of their engagement session with me....
Waoh! I've known Jackson for really long. I think since we were in secondary school. And he was the one who got me into dirt biking, bringing our motor bikes into Malaysia to travel the dirt... haha...
It's really wonderful seeing how lovely this couple are to one another.

Robin and Rachel had a different wedding program. They had their solemnisation on the same day and their dinner the next day. So it's pretty relaxing for the couple, not so tiring and packed.
Let me see.... this goes way back in the 1990s where I got to know David in church. Yes, we were little boys running around playing catching, police & thief... haha
Finally the day came when David has to say "I do" to his lovely fiancee (now wife) Jade. Yup, flew down to cover his wedding. It was really amazing. I like the way they do it, all in one day.
Alright, I'll upload the bridal photos soon. For now, enjoy their wedding day photos:)
yup, you didn't see wrongly... it's yellow Converse..
Although it's in Australia, that doesn't mean there's no gate crash.. haha
Surprise!!
That's not rubber-band, it's spaghetti...
That's oversized....
errrrr.....
David's brothers trying to be funny at the photo-booth
Mondays are when the working crowd drag themselves to work. For me however, I was eagerly looking forward to Dino & Marion's E-Session!
We had an awesome day, blessed with wonderful weather. Dino & Marion's such a fun couple as you can see from the following pictures! They've decided on a cute sports theme for their shoot haha
Jeremy & Salome - wedding day (by Ezra Koh, assist by Herman Wu)
Finally!! The day has come. I was really excited about their wedding. In fact, I'm always excited about all the weddings I cover, haha. Well, I felt the excitement from Jeremy the night before when I went down to their church to setup the funny booth.
The day started pretty fun and sweaty... haha
grooms should put makeup too...
that's no OREO!!....
the crashing starts from here...
the band of brothers..
Jeremy's grooms-men really did their job well!
oppsss...
I don't think they accept credit card...
yup! that's the correct one.
that's really not OREO...
it's nice to get your famly involve during the church wedding.
Found some time to catch some shots of Salome while Jeremy was doing his hair.
Mac at a wedding... Jeremy told me he only allow Mac at his wedding, NO PCs.... haha... sorry PC users;)
I must say, Christian & Lucia's wedding was kindda different. They had the wedding lunch 2 weeks before their tea ceremony. Above all, it was great fun covering their wedding! Lovely couple!
This is not just my first overseas wedding shoot, but an interesting one too! I knew David since primary school - we were church friends, and became good friends in secondary school till now.
It was fun helping them to come out with the instruction photo for their photobooth. Great idea!
Oh yes, those pong pongs are hand made by Jade. Great craft!
