Teresa + Darren :: Together…till Forever

Alex Chan Photography — Mon, 08 Aug 2011 04:11:51 +0000

The most special moment in this engagement session was when I get to shoot inside the Canon Theatre. I had been to this theatre for a few times before when I saw the Phantom of the Opera in the 90s. It is a beautiful theatre. I am very happy that I can have the opportunity to shoot inside the balcony section with Teresa and Darren. Then we shoot at the Osgoode Hall.

I like everything simple and pure, that’s the way I photo shoot with Helen and Vincent. A relaxing afternoon at the Harbour Front and Music Garden. We spent two hours in the late afternoon to captured their happy life together.

A relaxing Saturday afternoon, a simple set up for the engagement session with Esther and Terence at a house’s backyard. We’ve got fruit, wine and cheese. This is the kind of lifestyle any couple should have. Sweet, comfortable and enjoyable.

Sabina & Ranky

I still distinctly remember shooting Sabina and Ranky’s engagement session – it was the coldest shooting session I ever had! Now the winter has past, and their wedding has proven truly warm and great fun. They shared so many laughs with me which I still think about. I really enjoyed the whole day.

Sabina & Ranky, thank you for your trust in me and I am happy that I now have two more friends.

Angie & Wilfred

This wedding is a cute one, nothing complicated. I love this couple, always having fun with them since their engagement session at the airport last year. Their wedding took place at the Arta Gallery at the Distillery District. I shoot a wedding at the same location last year with another couple. It is a nice place for wedding ceremony where the guests and the couple are more closer.

Congratulation to Angie and Wilfred!

Connie & Andy

In 2011 wedding season, I have three couples host their banquet at the same location. This is the first of three weddings that I was shooting at the Markham Event Centre this year. I started the day at 8am at Claudia’s home. I really liked how the grooms dressed. The whole day went well except that the temperature was a little bit on the cool side. There was a lot of singing and dancing at the reception and I never stopped shooting to capture all the great moments. Here are some highlights of the day.

TV Interview at Wow TV

The Canadian Chinese Media Network, also known as Wow TV, invited me to their talk show “Life@5″ for an interview. The host Rudy Lau asked me about my photography style and how I work with my clients. It was my first time doing a TV appearance.

Here is the video of the interview in Cantonese (sorry no subtitles)

Jennifer :: Sexy Cool

I have another opportunity to do a studio session at the same studio I shoot with Sarah last time. Jennifer is a performer with a dance company. I enjoy this session so much. She is very beautiful and natural. Love the result of this photo set.

Sarah :: Be Myself

Alex Chan Photography — Mon, 11 Apr 2011 22:37:45 +0000

I haven’t had a studio session since 2009 – it’s been two years! Although I mainly shoot outdoor portraits, I’m always happy to work within a studio setting. With the studio lights on, I posed Sarah in a more “natural” rather than “fashion” style. The black and white shots also came out lovely.

Alison + Aaron :: Always You

Alex Chan Photography — Wed, 30 Mar 2011 02:06:18 +0000

This session is mostly the last winter engagement photo shoot. Distillery District is a popular location for wedding and engagement session. I have been to this place so many time. In two hours shooting, we had a very smooth process and the couple get more comfortable after some warm up shots. The weather was cold but the snow made the photo look more romantic.

Thanks to Gary to do the video and Kitty as my assistant.
