Becky + Kings 03082013

My good friends Kingsley and Becky got hitched last week and considering the short amount of time they took in organising the wedding, the day turned out to be a  charming and wonderfully intimate gathering within the grounds of  Arnos Vale Cemetery. I managed to capture a few moments from the day.

In July I shot my first ever Asian engagement party! It was an amazing and colourful experience. Although the actual traditional Indian wedding isn't until a year later the couple held the their English marriage vows in the evening, so in the end it was a very long but fulfilling day. Below is just a little snipet, the full day can be found here.

Betong and beyond 30052013 - 04062013

So been back in UK for a few weeks now after an amazing time away. I really didn't have time to update this while I was away, and only now putting some of the photos up.
After getting married this year in the UK I thought, due to having roots in Sarawak, why not also have a wedding in Malaysia but in the traditional Iban way. A fascinating experience as Alice and I got to wear traditional outfits, shared out the local alcoholic drink called "tuak", and finally ended with the Iban dance called "ngagat".  Our trip to Betong wasn't just for the wedding but also coincided with Gawai which is a type of harvest festival celebrated yearly. Lots of drinking and dancing was had during our time in Betong, Sawarak, and the photos can only give a slight insight of longhouse life.
