There are not too many weddings that I’ll end up having a whisky with the couple at the end of the night. Chilling out and having a party… I do that at most wedding, but to have a whisky and just lie back and relax, I only do so at the special ones. These are weddings where every element comes together. I don’t read the stars, but I’m sure somewhere out in the mysteries of space the stars are aligned. Of course, it has to be a wedding where I’m very confidant of what I’ve achieved as well to kick back in this way.

This is the wedding of Suan Jin and Rachel, we went to Beijing earlier this year to have their pre-wedding photos taken. Now it’s back to Singapore for their wedding day. They are 2 seemingly different people, as Suan Jin said himself, they even have different accents. Suan Jin is in banking and finance while Rachel works with NGO. (teaching forest tribes how to find alternative source of income, working with governments on policies of birth controls…… you know, that kind of stuff)

Rachel’s wacky aunty, and her wackier friend are memories I take with me from this wedding. There are not too many weddings that the official photographer gets told “excuse me, you are blocking me !” :p

So at the end of the shoot, with just 7 hours in between before I need to catch my early flight to Japan, I went over to Alley Bar to have my whisky with Suan Jin and Rachel. Like I said…… only for the special ones
