Wedding

on January 12, 2008 by Zainal

I normally dont shoot wedding, but for relatives and friends, when there’s need and time I shoot and enjoy every minute of it.

I like to take when they are at their best and without them knowing it.

For those who are interested please drop me a mail. Enjoy. Thanks

This shot was taken while the bride and groom were waiting to walk into the hall for the reception.

Again this shot was taken when they having light moment together before the reception. Its good to hang around them just watching them and shoot when necessary.

Flower girls always make a nice pictures itself. The only problem with them is one have to always be on alert cause it happen fast.

This another one of my favorite as this child was running around while everybody was busy doing something.

Guess she worry about what to do while sitting there with a basket of flower.

This shot happen so fast. I was just hanging around as most of the guest for that day had gone. Then….here comes this boy from nowhere handing flowers to this couple. Its good to have two camera bodies as I dont think I will have time to change lenses when this thing happen.

Many people asked me if I pose this moment. Well, honestly I dont like to pose and dont know how to get people to pose as I am not good at that. Guess that the reason I became photojournalist rather than studio photographer. Anway, back to the question, this was not a pose picture. It just happen and at that time i was hiding or sitting behind a wall in order not to let them see me. So when they were sharing moment together off it goes….bang …bang…bang.

A must for all wedding occasion.

I was just standing there among their friends waiting for the something to happen. I like this kind of shot as it shows the happy moment for the couple and their facial expression shows it all.

Well, wedding most of the time we have to pose for pictures. Two flashes was used in this picture.

    I have not done Malay wedding before, but have seen a couple and like your wedding pictures as well. I guess its your style that you take it naturally.

    thanks affacina …. that’s what i like to do … guess in photojournalism you can’t set up pictures, and when i take wedding i apply it.

    Waa abg Zainal,
    really like the way your photos tell a story.
    BTW, I know the army guy, was my batch at ATMA,
    though its been so long, forgot his name. Is he your relative?
