When I'm not shooting for weddings and engagements, you'll often find me working on creative editorials! I find it truly rewarding to put more meaning into my work, and to put an idea originally at the back of my head into reality.
I can't stress enough how important it is to keep my passion and my 🔥 going. To have the privilege of directing a shoot from start to finish, from deciding on the mood board, wardrobe, hair and makeup, to choosing locations, posing, photographing, culling and editing, these are what spark joy for me. Work will always be busy but I find it so important to keep my side projects going. That's how I bring a fresh perspective to my work. And I hope I can inspire couples to express what they deeply resonate with, know that the finer details are worth putting time into, and to understand that anything they envision/imagine for their own shoot is possible!
This shoot is part of an ongoing multi-year series I'm directing. It celebrates Chinese traditions with a modern twist. Having started photographing weddings in Vancouver at the beginning of my career, I realised how important it is to the couple’s family that they still incorporate tea ceremony in weddings to honour their family. I personally love this meaningful tradition, and can honestly imagine couple’s family would really appreciate the extra effort put into designing a beautiful tea ceremony. From choosing an embroidered “cheongsam” (such as this one by @cinobicinobi ) to finding a fitting location, there’re so much couples can do to bring surprise and awe to their family!

The Meaning of Life
“This is the end of the matter. All has been heard. Fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man.” (Ecclesiastes 12:13 WEB)
Does the word “commandments” throw you off?
The commandments for us today are not the Ten Commandments. It’s only two: to believe in Christ Jesus whom the Father has sent, and to love one another just as Jesus loved us (1 John 3:23).
To fear God simply means to worship Him with reverential awe. When you ‘fear’ God this way, you won’t have the fear of man.
If you want to know the meaning of life, it’s found in the main verse above.
Worship God, have faith in Jesus and let His love be known to the world through your words and actions.
This is great wisdom and also the whole duty of man, so let all you do be centered around this!
Even if we live 120 years, our lifespan is just a vapor of breath in contrast to eternity.
Let it have eternal impact by being a yielded vessel for God.
Don’t stumble through life blindly and in vain, chasing after things that don’t matter.
Being drunk with wine is pointless and harmful, but being drunk with the Holy Spirit is great gain.
I pray for you to enjoy the overwhelming lightness and joy of being under God’s power—there is so much joy and life in His presence!
One of the best things you can do is to study God’s word to understand His heart of love towards you.
On this page, I endeavor to send forth fresh revelation every day, at least twice a day.
As the Holy Spirit reveals truths to me, I simply share them after receiving from Him.

My Takeaways from Proverbs 31
To never miss a new post:
1. Like this Facebook page.
2. Click “Following”, then under “In my news feed”, select “Show First”.
(Day 24 of #ProverbsHesedWisdomChallenge to read a chapter from the Book of Proverbs each day which corresponds to the date as suggested by Pastor Joseph Prince in 7 Jan 2018’s Vision Sunday sermon -
http://www.miltongoh.net/miltons-blog/the-year-of-hesed-wisdom-vision-sunday-new-creation-church-theme-of-the-year-2018 ):
Meaning of the name “Lemuel”: Belonging to God/ Devoted to God.
This chapter’s wisdom is for those who belong to God - believers in Jesus Christ.
God’s heart is to be the Defender of the defenseless.
He is on the side of those who see themselves as weak, not those who boast in their own strength.
“Open your mouth for the mute, For the rights of all who are unfortunate and defenseless; Open your mouth, judge righteously, And administer justice for the afflicted and needy.” (PROVERBS 31:8-9 AMP)
Proverbs 31 has 31 verses! Verses 10 to 31 is an acrostic poem: Each verse begins with each successive letter of the Hebrew alphabet -
This poem describes from beginning to the end of the qualities of a virtuous woman.
Jesus’ is the “Beginning and the End” - in Hebrew that is “Aleph Tav” (the first and last letters of the Hebrew alphabet) -
A man finds a virtuous wife like this when he is in Christ.
A God-given wife like this is a great blessing to a man.
Single men should pray for a wife like this, and single women should pray to be a woman like this.
“An excellent woman [one who is spiritual, capable, intelligent, and virtuous], who is he who can find her? Her value is more precious than jewels and her worth is far above rubies or pearls. The heart of her husband trusts in her [with secure confidence], And he will have no lack of gain. She comforts, encourages, and does him only good and not evil All the days of her life.” (PROVERBS 31:10-12 AMP)
This is the fifth verse of the acrostic poem - The first Hebrew letter corresponds with Hei (5) in Hebrew which represents grace.
When a man has a wife like this, he obtains grace: prosperity and provision abounds in his life.
“She is like the merchant ships [abounding with treasure]; She brings her [household’s] food from far away.” (PROVERBS 31:14 AMP)
A virtuous woman is multi-talented, diligent and not lazy.
She is led by the Lord to bring income into her household on top of her parenting duties.
She does it all without complaining and has the grace for it so she doesn’t burn out from all the hard work.
“She looks for wool and flax And works with willing hands in delight.
She rises also while it is still night And gives food to her household And assigns tasks to her maids. She considers a field before she buys or accepts it [expanding her business prudently]; With her profits she plants fruitful vines in her vineyard. She equips herself with strength [spiritual, mental, and physical fitness for her God-given task] And makes her arms strong. She sees that her gain is good; Her lamp does not go out, but it burns continually through the night [she is prepared for whatever lies ahead]. She stretches out her hands to the distaff, And her hands hold the spindle [as she spins wool into thread for clothing].
She makes for herself coverlets, cushions, and rugs of tapestry. Her clothing is linen, pure and fine, and purple [wool].
She makes [fine] linen garments and sells them; And supplies sashes to the merchants.
She looks well to how things go in her household, And does not eat the bread of idleness.”
(PROVERBS 31:13, 15-19, 22, 24, 27 AMP)
A virtuous woman does not need to seek affirmation or praise on her own because her actions will attract praises on their own.
She is focused on getting things done instead of wasting time worrying about what others think about her.
Everyone in her life: husband, children and people all esteem and hold her in high regard.
“The heart of her husband trusts in her [with secure confidence], And he will have no lack of gain. She comforts, encourages, and does him only good and not evil All the days of her life.
She opens her mouth in [skillful and godly] wisdom, And the teaching of kindness is on her tongue [giving counsel and instruction].
Her children rise up and call her blessed (happy, prosperous, to be admired); Her husband also, and he praises her, saying, “Many daughters have done nobly, and well [with the strength of character that is steadfast in goodness], But you excel them all.”
Give her of the product of her hands, And let her own works praise her in the gates [of the city].” (PROVERBS 31:11-12, 26, 28-29, 31 AMP)
A virtuous woman’s heart is aligned with God - she is generous and cares for the poor and needy by blessing them with prayers, help and provisions.
“She opens and extends her hand to the poor, And she reaches out her filled hands to the needy.” (PROVERBS 31:20 AMP)
God’s definition of a praiseworthy woman is not someone who is physically beautiful - that is not the number one priority.
God looks at the heart: a woman who loves and worships Jesus is a praiseworthy woman.
“Charm and grace are deceptive, and [superficial] beauty is vain, But a woman who fears the LORD [reverently worshiping, obeying, serving, and trusting Him with awe-filled respect], she shall be praised.” (PROVERBS 31:30 AMP)
