My third day in Hongkong now. Temperature has dropped almost 10degC since I arrived and it’s due to drop another 10 by tomorrow. That’s a good change from Singapore’s 35 – 36 degC “spring”. The shoot is going to happen in about 30mins time. This shoot is going to be “no sweat” for me. I’m sure.

And I’m happy that we’ve got 4 placings in the final quarter of the WPJA 2009 Contest. It’s one of those things that makes you smile after a year of making wedding images. It sounds kinda silly, but it’s like having exams. The morning I received the emails, I logged into the website via my phone while still in bed and scrolled through them one by one. It’s just one of those fun things that I miss during school… checking results (not all the time though! lol!). Many thanks to the couples who have given me the opportunity to do this.

Here are the images,

2nd place in Bride getting ready category

12th place in Creative Portrait category

16th place in Groom getting ready category

16th place in Dancing category

Just a short note, we’ll be moving from today till 6th Jan. During this time, I may not have internet access. Please contact me via mobile if you need to reach me. Thank you for your patience and I look forward to see you at my new place!:D

Happy New Year!:)

It’s so quiet here isn’t it? Yes it is. I didn’t even open up my blog for the past 2 weeks. When I clicked on it last night while trying out the new browser from my phone, I was both shocked and ashamed that it hasn’t been updated as much as I’d like to. Being busy is just part of the reason (the more legit one).

Been working on alot of images lately. From Bali, dogs, weddings to portraitures. Beyond that, I was looking for an office space, which I’ve just more or less settled. Now, the things are going to get REAL busy from here. I will keep you folks updated once things are formally finalized. For now, just bear with the silence for awhile. There will be a series of announcements out later this year and early next year. Watch this… empty space. LOL.

I got this rather interesting link from a friend. And if you see someone familiar in it. Yes… he is the hero.

To my dear clients and friends. I am currently in Bali for visiting (Mantas, mozzies and a few others). Please drop me an email and I will reply you as soon I get internet access like now. Thank you for your patience and watch this space:)

Another late post. Bought the magazine just before I left for Bali. That’s quite awhile ago. A 8-page spread on Ming and Elaine’s wedding on Herworld Brides. A Vegas themed wedding. Poker soon?:D (and I’m so tempted to point out the sharks who won my money…:P)

I’m experiencing some problems accessing my emails in Bali. I am able to download the headers but not see the content. I’m trying to fix that when I get to the other hotel. Please bear with me if the replies are not not as quick. Thank you for your patience and we’ll be in touch really soon. I will be back in Singapore on 16th September.

Ocean World, dolphins, cable car ride, Jumbo restaurant, 女人街, remote control cars… and actually, some men’s magazine (ok only the cover! I was too young to know what it was, we were at a newstand). That’s my memory of Hongkong when I was like, hmmm… 8? And I remembered the waitress who said “多谢” in cantonese when we were leaving the restaurant, which I mistook it for “讨债” in teochew. My family had a good laugh over that. These are the memories I had of Hongkong. The current impressions are from the scenes of Young and Dangerous, which I completed watching 4 episodes in the past 2 days:P

Anyway, this is going to my second trip to Hongkong. The first after the 1997 handover. Feeling a little excited:) I do hope we’ll be able to do some diving next weekend before I return. I’m bringing my laptop there, so I’ll post some updates on this blog and my facebook.

I’ll be away from 17th to 27th July 2009. Please bear with me if my replies are a little late. Emails will be the best form of contact for now.

I’ve been sitting on this for the longest of time. I first created a page on facebook a year back but didn’t publish it (for unknown reasons:P). So why is it up today? And at this ungodly hour. I had a little too much durians after dinner and dozed off after that. Woke up at 3am and realized I’ve happily screwed up my sleep cycle. Instead of trying to coax myself to sleep, I decided to do something constructive. So here, goes… the “fat-barrel” goes on facebook!:D In future, I’ll cross post the images and slideshows both on the blog and facebook. And here’s the link:)

I was really happy when I was told that the wedding I took was featured in Herworld Brides earlier last year. To cap a fantastic year, I got it again afew more times in 2008. Happy as I was, I didn’t blog about it. Although I’m not a big fan of magazines, I did buy them for keepsake (afterall, it feels good to see your works appearing on magazines). Just hours before I left for Bali, Lilian dropped me an email reminding me that their wedding was featured in the March-May issue. I guess it’s a little too late to buy them. Thankfully, she sent me the scans:D

I will be out of town from 20th – 28th May 2009. For enquiries, please drop me an email and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

… I can hear the oceans calling:D

I am planning for a trip to Bali in May. So if there’s anyone who wants to do a shoot 3rd week of May. Let me know and we’ll work out something for you. Bridal, casual, underwater, whatever you can think of.

edit: Ok. I realized it’s a really bad day to post an announcement… only after someone emailed me asking if it’s an April Fool’s joke.  Alright, folks, it’s not. I AM really going:)

Our email servers are currently down. If you have tried sending emails to me  from yesterday onwards, I may not have received them. In the meantime, please forward a copy to feldberyl@gmail.com. We are in the midst of resolving the issue. Sorry for all the inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience.

edit: Our mail servers are up and running again!:D Thank you for your patience.

 Yes, the new look is up!

 Been working on this for awhile now. If you don’t already know, I do up my website myself. I like mucking around with things. There will be a little more tweaking in the days to come.

 Apologies to my readers, I know I haven’t been very hardworking with the posts. After this major update, it’s business as usual again!:D

Yes, the day has arrived.  I will be shifting my workstations today. The rest will go on Wednesday.

During this period, I may have limited internet access (I’m trying to hook it up with my mobile phone and it seems fine for now). Sorry about the inconveniences.

Btw, the new place rocks!!:D
