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.

As usual Romin, you never cease to inspire me with your observation and visionary skills. I feel your heart and sincere effort in all the images here. I only wish my kids (eldest 9) were old enough to get married, as I would love for you to document their day. Maybe in ten or twelve years time... :) J.
I love how these seem so timeless. Lovely captures! Thanks for sharing them.
They are beautifully captured Romin, full of love and excitement!
These are amazing! The colors, location, emotions, LOVE it all!!!^^
wow, gorgeous, gorgeous shots. I don't even know these people and I feel moved. especially loved the image with her mother's hands adjusting her hanbok... chills.
