Save the date - Xiaoxing & Mark
Here's another example of "
making something out of the engagement shoot". You just never know what your engagement photos are good for other than displaying them on your reception table. They can turn out to be your save-the-date date card /e-card /postcard, or invitation.

Will you marry me?
Imagine yourself going to a coffee shop with a friend on a cold and snowy night...as you are about to order a hot cup of something, you noticed the specialty drink of the day is called "Will you marry me?" The background music is playing "your love song" and there is someone waiting for you outside in the side court yard. You go outside and there he is, the man of your dream, standing there with some flowers, smiling back at you, awaiting for your answer.
That's what I witnessed yesterday. It was cold, it was snowing hard, but it didn't stop Andy from popping the question to Raechelle.
Raechelle & Andy, you made my heart melted. CLICK HERE FOR SLIDE SHOW

Instyle Transformers
This past Sunday I met with Queenie and Joseph for an engagement shoot. Our concept was to photograph "what they do on dates". That would include : shopping, having a drink in the coffee shop, eating at their usual restaurant, reading at the bookstore, and simply just hanging out.
My most memorable moment of Queenie and Joseph:
The way their eyes sparkled when she said
Instyle and he said
Transformers.When I asked Queenie for her favorite reading material at Borders, she gave me an answer without hesitation-----
Instyle Magazine. There is no doubt that Instyle is Queenie's favorite, she loves fashion, has good taste in clothing, and definitely knows what's in style.
One the other side, Joe pointed out many of his favorite books to me, but nothing compares to when he saw a Transformers book on the shelf. I know he is not into the book itself but more so the idea of Transformers is back and is now on motion picture. The look on his face was priceless, I could tell that it brought back lots of his good childhood memories. I could see it in his eyes.

3 days engagement shoot
Last November, newly engaged Daisy and Waveman said they wanted to come to Chicago for their engagement shoot. We decided to make it happen in June this year. Since then, my mind just couldn't stop brainstroming. Where do I want to take them? When is the best time of lighting for what location? Planning driving routes, marking down locations that they might like, booking hair, makeup, and florist for the shoot...etc, it wasn't easy planning a 3 days shoot.
My first vision was summer white dress girl meets sunny boy in kahkis. Lucky for me, Daisy and Waveman are not the typical traditional couple, they are open minded and up for any kind of cool ideas. This engagement shoot is going to be divided into life style photojournalistic photos and posed shots at romantic places. Let's see how that goes when they arrive tomorrow.

Billie & Lawrence
ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS
It was the coldest day of the year in
February 2007. Seriously, that day was too cold for any human being to be outdoor, my camera started to freeze on me, the images on the LCD screen was fading out...etc. But Billie and Lawrence were probably thinking about Hawaii in their heads, the photos turned out
amazing. No one could tell that we were working in such difficult condition, can you?
INVITATION
Billie and Lawrence picked out 5 of their favorite shots from the engagement shoot and made a series of postcard as their invitation. I must say they successfully made a
collectible wedding invitation postcard set. The responses were great.
