Wendy + Hansen | Hycroft Manor Wedding | Same Day Edit

These two love birds have incredibly fun personalities. You will always see a smile on their faces. We had the pleasure to meet them recommended by Anita Lee, one of our favourite make-up artists to work with! We did not know that Wendy has this obsession with cats until we arrived at their home in the morning and saw 2 adorable cats. Then she told us she has five cats! Five! Too bad we didn't get to the other three cats that were hiding but we saw a tall glass display shelf FULL of transformer models, figurines, and what-not. We knew Hansen likes Transformers but had no idea he has an obsession for them!  But we know that nothing can beat their obsession for each other. It was a great day working with many great people. The sunshine came out in the afternoon after a little rain in the morning.

Jessica + Nathan | Same Day Edit | Vancouver International Airport

We met Jessica and Nathan for almost a decade ago, they are two genuine, kind-hearted friends that one is lucky to have. We knew that this couple will eventually tie the knot and start a new chapter in their life together one day, we just didn't know when it was going to happen. When Nathan approached us with the good news of they're finally getting married, it also came with a very heart-breaking news that Jessica's dad only has so many days left before he can't walk the aisle with his daughter. It was an emotional news for us.

Despite all the pressure on putting a wedding together within 4 weeks, working out of town, visiting hospital everyday, and all the other bits and pieces, Jessica and Nathan managed to be strong and their wedding was unique and beautiful. We are very honored to be their videographers to capture such significant day for them and the family. Every moment is important and needs to be well reserved. We were very glad to show Jessica's dad parts of the ceremony when we visited the hospital just right after the ceremony. It was a very emotional, tearful, but also joyful moment for everyone.

Nathan and Jessica managed to have their wedding celebrated at, for the very first time, Vancouver International Airport (YVR)/Fairmont Vancouver Airport! It was an unique experience for everyone including us. Can you imagine having a wedding at the airport, turning it into a ballroom, and also having a slow motion booth too? No need to imagine all that, you'll see it all in the video!

Amy + Robin | Wedding Highlight | Four Seasons Hotel Vancouver

Amy and Robin are high school sweet hearts who have been through many years together, hand in hand, tears and smiles. It's one of those things that I really admire. We are so happy to be a part of their intimate wedding at the Four Seasons Hotel in Vancouver Downtown, beautiful wedding decorated with their theme colours - royal blue, with lots of personal touches such as personalized ribbons and gorgeous wedding cake by Kien and Sweets, and their well-planned games and decorations. 

It was also our first time working with Helena and Jessie from Elysium Events "officially", such a pleasure to work with those two fabulous ladies. 

Amy and I worked together at a small kiosk in Coquitlam Centre many many years ago, we clicked really fast and had so much to chat with whether on the phone or at work. We both love reading comics and had so much to talk about our boyfriends. It's not easy to find good friends once we're out of school, I was fortunate enough to have met Amy and so grateful to have this friend though we lost contact for several years. It was a little disappointing that I couldn't photograph her wedding (the popular date - Sep 7th of 2013!) but at least I got to photograph her engagement session. Thank you for the support and love. We wish you and Robin all the best in the future years. =)

Amazing people who created magic <3

Jenny + Andy | Dr. Sun Yat Sen Garden + Continental Seafood Restaurant

We had the pleasure to capture another Cambodian wedding this year! It's been so long ever since Serey + Marcus' Cambodian wedding last August. We were thrilled when Jenny and Andy told us that they will be having a Cambodian ceremony at a backyard because we love everything at a Cambodian ceremony. All the vibrant colours, flowers, paired trays of exotic fruits, blessings from beloved family and friends, and the best part is - their beautiful outfits!!! Oh, and there's always so much delicious food to eat. Yup, and the list goes on! 

It gets better the next day, second part of their wedding - the Vietnamese tea ceremony at Dr. Sun Yat Sen Garden. It was probably the best venue to have a tea ceremony. All the Chinese touch to it with the beautiful traditional outfit, Jenny looked absolutely astonishing! Like any tea ceremony, there's always the infamous Door Games that comes first. The perfect chance for any bridesmaids to ask the groom and his groomsmen to do anything and also legitimately ask for red pockets (the monetary gift!). Andy and his men were asked to sing of else no bride for Andy, one of the common "tasks" but yet always entertaining to have.

The reception was something that we had waited for the whole year - a 500-people banquet at a fully decorated Chinese seafood restaurant in Richmond! It was definitely a huge party all night long.  So glad we had the opportunity to be a part of such an incredible wedding. Now, please enjoy their epic Same-Day-Edit and be ready for the best Thor Punch Action ever filmed for a wedding film!

Willette + Dominic | Terminal City Club | Same-Day-Edit

https://vimeo.com/74484959

"Two are better than one!"

Love brought Willette and Dominic together by surprise. Willette never thought they would be together and here they are, at "this beautiful hotel", they sealed their promises with the kiss. Dominic and his groomsmen went through all the infamous Door Games, even with one that we've never seen, the "Break the Eggs Hump"! And man, that chocolate on the diaper looks too real! In the SDE, one of the groomsmen licked the "brown" part on the diaper and said with a relief "oh ok it's chocolate." That was hilarious!

We were so glad to see Christina from Red Carpet Ready by Christina  at Willette's wedding. One of our recent additions to our Favourite Make-up Artists. Christina did an amazing job for Willette - different looks from white wedding gown to the traditional Chinese red gown with a touch of the big red rose in Willette's hair design. Near the end of the day, we overheard Dominic saying how Christina did an amazing job with all the beautiful make-up and hair styling; he even mentioned how Willette was once a tomboy so he's not used to the looks but she looked absolutely beautiful. Though we weren't the make-up artist but we were so proud hearing that!  

It was a pleasure to work with Willette and Dominic and we are grateful that another bride Amy recommended us to them. We love our couples and grateful for the kind people that we get to work with. Willette and Dominic were definitely a great couple to have. Thanks for trusting us to capture your beautiful day.
