(1/3) - 2024 Icon Photography Awards Competition

Pretty hard to believe, but here we are with 3 awards from Icon International Photography Awards’ 2024 competition! Honestly just can’t believe it…but more than anything else, feeling super grateful to all my family and friends for all their love and support, as well as the couples who trust us year in and year out to capture their stories and wedding journey—thank you so much!! ❤️ There is no way any of this happens without each and every one of you!

More than anything else, these photos and all the fun bts shots we took during each of those prewedding adventures represent cherished wedding memories for our couples /.thoughts and / ! That we get to win awards for our work is really just cream cheese frosting on top of a sumptuous red velvet cake!

This first photo from Padar Island brings back the sweetest memories from our prewedding shoot with Chloe and Patrick! 🏝️✨ After a fun (but super hot!) hike up to the summit, we were treated to a blazing sunset that painted the skies in hues of gold and blue - it was amazing seeing our couple stand at the summit (particularly Chloe in her super epic wedding gown) all shimmering in the sunlight!

Thankful also to my incredible teammates Xinyi and Benny (and Yuka!) who helped to bring their creativity and camaraderie, and help turn our creative vision into reality! And finally, thank you to for all your hard work in putting together this incredible competition and uniting the global wedding photography community!

(2/3) - 2024 Icon Photography Awards Competition

Our second award (and our first Distinction!) took place amidst the vibrant hues of Pink Beach, again with Chloe and Patrick (yes that’s two amazing photos with them, both taken on the same day)!

As the late afternoon sun kissed the horizon, the pink sand shimmered under their feet, and crystal-clear blue waters sparkled behind them. Wouldn’t have this shot without - thank you for noticing that the late afternoon shadows were long, and so we could use them to add an extra special dimension to this photo!

One of my favorite bts shots of us ever - bringing the photo to the Labuan Bajo fish market where we had dinner and seeing Chloe and Patrick’s reaction to this shot!

Once again, teamwork made this dream work! Appreciate Xinyi and Benny (and Yuka!) being there to help bring their expertise and energy to every shot, helping us capture Chloe and Patrick’s story!

(3/3) - 2024 Icon Photography Awards Competition

Earlier in the year, and brought a different kind of magic to Pink Beach! It was a cloudy day (and not long after, we would face some crazy rainstorms up on the island, but keep shooting anyways)!

The soft light made the colors were even more vibrant, and we did one of our favorite ever drone flatlays, where everything just came together! I can still remember stopping by Eugene and Jeanette’s room later in the evening with Kenny so we could all collectively wow over this photo and talk about things prewedding photography related!

This shoot was also a testament to great teamwork, with Kenny and Yuka both there to help bring this prewedding journey to life!

Here’s to one of my happiest places - Padar Island, the power of teamwork, and the love stories that inspire us every day. 💖✨

Team is everything 💪, and having our team shoot together is always an absolute joy! ✨ The chemistry we’ve built over the years makes every shoot feel seamless 🎥, and it’s something we’re always grateful for, whether it’s a wedding in Singapore 🇸🇬 or an overseas adventure! 🌍 Recently, had the chance to shoot with Xinyi and Benny at Mountain Terrace 🏞️ in the Bay Area for Hailen and Ye’s wedding, and what a joy it was! 💍🎉

Always a blast adventuring around with these two —from exploring the Golden Gate Bridge 🌉, catching a Giants game ⚾, and indulging in burgers at In-N-Out 🍔—so many great memories both on and off shoot! Teamwork, trust, and the friendship we’ve built are what truly make this journey in life special! 💖

A special shoutout to and for their kindness and hospitality during our time in the Bay! 🫶 And coming up soon—we’ll be sharing more photos of the whole team 📸 from our team shoot! (Yes, including our Frenchie Royal (aka Team Mascot) 🐶 who can’t wait to take some pictures too!)

Just had to share one last series of family photos! So, we just about found our newest happy place! 🌵✨ Had an absolute blast exploring the magic of Joshua Tree National Park with all its... Joshua trees! Nate was so jet-lagged he slept the whole day but woke up just in time for sunset! 🌅😴 Hopefully next time, he’ll catch more than just the golden hour 😂 On top of that, it was awesome showing Nate and Jade where I grew up in NorCal and spent my college/working years in SoCal — super nostalgic (and kinda mind-blowing 🚀) because when I was younger I never quite imagined what it would be like to come back again one day with my wife and son (and doing things like spending so much time at Trader Joe’s and Costco 😅)! Super grateful to all my family and friends who made time to catch up and meet up, it was so nice seeing all of you again! And to for making these memories look as awesome as they felt! 📸💫”

Such a memorable and heartwarming wedding morning for Claris and Timothy, full of love, laughter, and unforgettable moments 🤗 including a gatecrash replete with consuming gummy bears from all kinds of places, and human pyramids to top it all off! Cherishing every moment from this beautiful day. 💖

An amazing time witnessing the marriage of Claris and Timothy under the grand white arches of The Clifford Pier! Can’t say enough about what a blast it was spending the day with these two and their super fun high energy bridal party! From the beautiful wedding ceremony, moving praise and worship session (“Been So Good” by Elevation Worship 😇❤️) and Claris and Timothy’s heartfelt speeches, the day was so full of love in the air and the presence of God shining all around! 🥰 Loved every moment of this special day, and so blessed to be given the opportunity to capture all these special moments! 🙏

16/07/2024

Loving all the fantastic vibes from Claris and Timothy’s sweet wedding 🤵‍♂️👰 at The Clifford Pier, one of our favorite places to shoot in all of Singapore 🇸🇬! It was everything you could want in a wedding, good company, good music, good food, and endless amounts of love! 🥰 One of those days we could have just kept on going, which we kinda did, 11 hours straight with a bright and early 530am start! 🙌 Just when we thought it was all over and nearly all the guests had left, our sweet couple (and their amazing bridal party!) asked if we could do a bridal party shoot, to which we said, sure thing, why not!!! 😇 (We’re always up for more good times! 🙃)

In the hush before the rush, amidst anticipation and excitement, there’s a beauty in the quiet moments shared between couples before the ceremony begins, loved loved loved capturing these for Miri & Kai!!✨

Elly & Khai:
We’d been monitoring various villages across Japan for months to track the snowfall. The day before, the snowstorm had been so heavy that we decided to wait a day and head to Arashiyama first (not for the bamboo grove, but for delicious mackerel soba, and in hopes of snow!)

The sleepy, snowy village was gorgeous beyond what we could’ve imagined, albeit a real challenge to get to — and we will never forget accidentally shooting on top of a frozen river (please do not try this), and Elly’s hands turning bright red from mild frostbite.

Bracing ourselves, we left the fur coats, gloves and heat packs behind to capture gown and suit shots in -5 degree, heavy snowfall. It was pure adrenaline keeping us going at that point, which increased each time Darren would show us breathtaking shots through his camera’s viewfinder.

A hardcore moment to wrap up the shoot — we had exactly 20 minutes to get our bridge shot before the last bus of the day arrived.

One of the best things we’ve ever done together, but might recommend to do this as a leisure trip instead 🤣 Remember, Gore-tex gloves do wonders.

Darren:
What an adventurous day, where we were hit with a heavy snowstorm but decided to shoot anyways, because, heavier snow, more epic! It was around -5 degrees and I can’t imagine how cold Elly was in just her wedding gown - I was freezing and couldn’t feel my hands even while wearing 5 layers!

It was amazing exploring this super rustic village with its charming houses and majestic bridge! After an initial journey around the village in wedding attire, our intrepid couple revealed their true wizard selves and were joined by none other than Hedwig while we traversed the snow-laden pathways on the other end of the bridge!

Definitely the most challenging shoot I’ve ever done, with not only the freezing temperatures to deal with but also with the knee-high snow making it difficult to walk around and the constant barrage of snow in our faces making it tough to do just about anything (except of course, cast spells with our wands, obviously).

Elly & Khai:
Hermione would be proud of the amount of homework that went into this magical endeavour! We had a recce/play day beforehand to mark our route and maximise chances of an empty castle — and it was breathtaking (literally, from all the running too) to have Elly’s dream Hogwarts photoshoot become a reality.

Equipped with our newly adopted owls and butterbeer, we zipped around the Hogsmeade grounds enchanting quaffles, levitating in front of Honeydukes and sirius-ly contemplating a purchase of the latest Firebolt. (Mad-eye) Moody shots with steam billowing around the Hogwarts Express, and chocolate frogs in surprising places, we nearly abandoned our plan to leave for Marioland but thankfully our Keeper of Time, Indie, herded us out of the Hogwarts gates.

Jaws dropped further than when Harry’s name came out of the Goblet of Fire, when we first took in the vibrant, intricate details right out of the Super Mario video games — and ran for the ‘?’ boxes with our Yoshi wristbands and Super Mushroom balloon.

Same day, next adventure — getting to Kyoto in time for our kimono & hakama fitting.

Darren:
By Dumbledore’s beard, what an adventure it was to brave the wait 2 hours in the cold before the opening of the gates of USJ, all to be the first to reach the hallowed grounds of Hogwarts Castle! Such unwavering dedication! Needless to say, the experience was wholly magical, and verily worth every moment! A round of Butterbeer, wand selection, and the procurement of our own owls ensued to mark the occasion!

I must commend Elly and Khai for their meticulous attention to detail – Gryffindor and Slytherin scarves, Potter and Voldemort wands, and, above all, Elly’s Slytherin-inspired nails! From the delights of Honeydukes to the warmth of the Three Broomsticks, from the bustling Platform Nine and Three-Quarters to the sight of the Weasleys’ Flying Ford Anglia, this shoot had it all! To collaborate with fellow wizards on an adventure like this has forever been a dream of mine, and I count myself fortunate to have crossed paths with these two kindred spirits! 🧙‍♂️✨

Needless to say, this couple are ultimate outdoor enthusiasts! Their pre-wedding shoot perfectly captured their wild and whimsical spirit✨ From catching a stunning sunrise at Pinggan Village (hiking gear and all!) to braving the elements with a rainy hike up Padar Island! 🌄 Congratulations Jeanette and Eugene! Wishing you both a lifetime of unforgettable adventures together💞

What a dynamic duo! Shooting with this lively couple was an absolute blast, and exploring the stunning multi-tiered layout of Hilton Orchard was a first-time thrill! We personally loved the energy-packed bridal party shoot by the Singapore River, truly brimming with laughter and infectious good vibes! Wishing you both a blessed marriage, Alicia & Yu Xing!💍✨
