Vicky & Vincent Tea Ceremony

It was our pleasure to provide this free service to Vicky and Vincent on their wedding day. We would love to do more free weddings for people who can not afford the service of professional photographer on their wedding day. Please send us your request and we will let you know if we can provide our services to you.

Vicky & Vincent’s wedding was a mixed religion wedding, as Vicky is Buddhist and Vincent is Catholic. They both agreed to make compromises to have both religious ceremonies in their wedding, but are both happy that they are now husband and wife. I hope you enjoy the images. I will try to explain the meaning of the images when I can.
