something called photography . . .


You know, how many times we wished we had a perfect setting for a wedding, nothing typical, something unique, something to call your own. Maybe it's given S'pore's limited landscape or creativity of our locals or the acute sense of capturing tt moment. But i'm also curious why do they keep discussing on how to price their works, commenting that top photographers earn USD$10k a day while they earned peanuts while browsing forums. I mean top photographers are called TOP for a reason right? They always share the same kind of feel that the local industry pictorial mood is like getting mood from each other, lacking of fusion. Wah say i talk like machiam a photo critique. Alright then, you be my judge. Here's some Singapore Photographer's work from what i've browsed.











It would have been pretty good, capturing the mood and stuff.
Photos, would be photos. That's what i thought.
Not till i chance upon Gary Fong's wedding while looking for some inspiration.
Other then the location, i could see and feel the emotions that went through every shot.
It was then i realise i've been elevated to another level of photography.


















Well, the local photographers hold Gary Fong in high esteem as well. Who is he? Just type Gary Fong on google search engine and you have the answer.
And the people who captured these moments are world renowed photographers, taking shots for the USA President's memorial book and stuff. I'm already not doing justice to these pics cause it's in smaller resolution. So if you want the link, i can try find for you.
For now, i can only make do with my tight budget. Maybe for my kid in future.
