Tuckys Photography

Yippeez~!

Very pleased w Tuck Hong's work. Initially we din know exactly what we were doing and how about we should do to make our pre-wedding shoot w Tuckz different. Thankfully, Tuckz being very experience, has guided and led us into the mood. Our shoot has got many different styles but all incoporated the life-style feel thus making every single shoot very natural. We were not supposed to pose for shoots...instead, we were asked to play among ourselves and he'll capture all our classic moments. Well Tuckz did wan certain pics with unique poses...and usually they are difficult to do. I almost break my back! LOLz...

Anyway... got back all our pics fr Tuckz to view so that we can pick out those that we wan for the album. As usual...brainstorming time... managed to pick out 30+ pics while foregoing the rest of the 400++ pics... *sadz* Cant choose all tho'.....

After doing 2 photoshoots... I've come to a conclusion....no matter how much fun it can be, it's F**KIN' tiring!!! Gosh...don't think i'll wanna do any photoshoot in the near future....

The pics are out~!~!~!

Collected the DVD with 200+ pics of our 1st photoshoot on Sunday. I managed to sort out 40+ of my fav while Nig is in camp. He wont be able to see the pics til Wed when he can finally come home. Whahaha... Hopefully we will be able to pick out together 40 best shoots peacefully...LOLz...

It was a pretty hard decison to make for picking just 40 pieces as all the pictures were really fantastic. Wonder y only 40? Cos we are trying to stick to our budget. FYI, every additional piece is $90 and our package has only given us 26 pieces. Sad right?

Anyway this is only our 1st shoot. This is done by our bridal studio which was part of the package. We have actually engaged a journal photographer to do up another pre-wedding photoshoot which will occur next month. Im very excited abt the next photoshoot. Cant wait for the day to come faster. Hopefully we'll be able to get the pics fast too~!

Updates for July...

Well...finally we have done our photoshoot with French Bridal.

I like the studio shoot. We get to change into many outfits to take different style of pics. 80% of the pics turn out to be extremely good. Oh ya... regarding the orangy-red cheong sum, it turned out pretty good after the lace and breads are up. It didn't looked that orangy after the red laces were sewn. Thank God~!

The outdoor shoot is the most HORRIFYING experience to me.

It was a bloody hot afternoon, AND... i'm wearing an extremely heavy gown, running ard and posing with many "cute" and "lovely" six-legged friends~! It scare the shit out of me. OMG, all outdoor locations are filled with disturbing creatures!!! Just standing in the midst of some lavander looking grass, i thought that i've become one of the lead in the movie "BUG'S LIFE". There were ants, spiders and other creatures crawling on my gown and most importantly, there were many grasshoppers leaping for joy as i stood in their company. FAINTZ........

I'm very glad it's over.

I've collected my blue cheong sum fr Divine and is looking fwd now to our 2nd photoshoot with Tucky Photography in August.

Disappointment...

On Friday 22/06, i went to French bridal to see my MTM (made to measure) Cheongsum. Tho' i didnt pin alot of hope on this particular piece, i didnt expect it to be far worse than my minimum expectation. Well it isn't fully done up yet. They still have to sew on the lace and breads.

The main reason as to why it didnt even reach my min. standard is beacause of the color of the fabric. I wanted a red cheongsum not orangey-red. It is a huge difference to me. I hate orangey-red stuff! Be it a piece of fabric, paper or an object, i just cant accept the color. So can u imagine my entire evening gown is orangey-red in color!!! FAINTZ!!!! I was very disappointed. Tho' i could have highlighted it to the designer, i ended up just agreeing w the entire staffs there that it look very good on me. Now all i can do is to hope that after the lace and breads are up, it will look better and divert my attention away from the color. SADz......

All my hopes are now pinned on my blue Cheongsum from Divine Couture. So far after my 2nd fitting w them, the blue one still look v stunning on me. Haiz... I have to count on this piece of gown liao~!~!

Extremely Pleased...

Went for Divine's cheong sum 2nd fitting yesterday. Didn't expect that the lace which i've chosen can be made into such a beautiful gown. All thanks to Kim, the designer of Divine!

(My French Lace ---> Cost me $500!)

Can't wait for the entire piece to be ready. I've only managed to see & try the skeleton of the outfit and I'm already amazed by her work. Simply cant wait for the 3rd fitting in July. It's totally worth the money~! I'm glad that we didnt make a wrong choice of custom making another cheong sum for the wedding.

Just like my mum, we both have a cheong sum made to keep for the wedding. Mum's wedding cheong sum is still nicely kept. Too bad, neither my sis nor I can fit into it. She used to be so skinny! Hers was an elegant red lace with pink silk and it only cost her $160! Argh... I wished mine was that dirt cheap too...

WE HAVE SURVIVED................



We have finally survived our course for the weekend! As mentioned earlier, we went for E.E. (Engagement Encounter) for the past weekend.


Initially I went with lots of very pessimistic thoughts and is very septical about the course. Cos' i cant imagine having to sleep in different room from my darling + I would be having a room mate + we have no idea what to expect from it. Well... God has bless us. I had a very interesting room mate that click off pretty well with me. Tho' she seems like she doesnt have to sleep at all, she turned out to be a very chatty & nice lady whom i enjoyed her company.


As there are many things to be discussed and shared by the presenting couples and Fr. Arro, the course ran on a very tight schedule. We have to wake up like 6.30am and going to bed just before midnight. Even our meal breaks are very short so that every thing can run smoothly on time.


The peak of the course was at the end of it, not because it's going to end but seeing the presenting & house couples renew thier marriage vows in front of us. I was personally very touched to see couples married for so many years and are still deeply in love with each other.

The stuffs we did at EE was pretty interesting. It helps us to deepen our love for each other, to understand each other even further than what we have expected and also putting God into our relationship. I would say that this course was very enriching for the both of us despite having very little sleep throughout the entire 2 nights.


Nig & I went to bed at 7.30pm when we reached home last night. We "coma" til this morning 9am when i had to go for work. Now I very sick... lol~! Well...I still feel it worth our weekend there~!
