SUNG + MIKE // SINGAPORE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

Sung and Mike met while attending NYU, and were friends for years before Mike boldly ventured outside the friendzone and finally asked her out on a date. (Good job, Mike!)

I've known Sung since we worked together in church youth group half-a-lifetime ago. She's told me for years that she expected me to document her wedding someday. I was thrilled when she contacted me last year to say that she was getting married to Mike in his native Singapore.

Sung is a Jersey gal, representing the Korean-American blood -- you'll notice she wore a modern, yet beautifully subdued, take on the traditional Korean hanbok. They had a traditional Singaporean tea ceremony at Mike's family home, in which they presented tea to family elders. Afterwards, they had an intimate Western-style ceremony at the Goodwood Park Hotel, officiated by Sung's brother.

It was an honor to be a witness for them. Thanks for trusting me to tell your story.

MARY SOO + ROSS // FLASH MOB WEDDING PROPOSAL



He and Mary Soo are good friends who modeled for my workshop with Fer Juaristi a few months ago here in Seoul.  When Ross mentioned that he was planning to propose to Mary Soo after a flash mob dance, I knew it would be a really special moment to document for them.  The first few frames are from the final rehearsal, moments before Mary Soo walked through the park in Hongdae with Kim, our sneaky spy.  Ross started the music and began his dance; Mary Soo turned around and didn't realize it was him, and she began dancing along.  Moments later, she recognized his brown dress shoes as friends poured into the park taking their places.  It went off without a hitch, and a film crew from a local comedy troupe interviewed them after she said yes.
