O'Moon Tang

OK! What your about to see may shock you or others. It's our series of wedding pix which from the beginning we didn't even really put our mind into it. I just knew I don't want any of those cliche Taiwanese styles. And no 'Make believe Princessy' pix in some La La Land posing with my Prince Charming, wearing as what Choen would say, 'A Meringue Dress'. (sorry, no offence to those who like this style, it's just my personal view). I wanted an 'edge' on my pix.

After some thought, I approached Choen Lee to see if he's up to do something crazy with me. I wanted 2 or 3 shots of simple classic and timeless 1940's inspired vintage style portraits with me and Dom. We got engrossed with the concept and our 2 or 3 shots becomes...

*please bear in mind it's not as photo perfect as of those bridal studios as it's really a DIY concept and effort. Concept/Hair/Make-up is by me and Photography by Choen.Visit www.choen.com to view more pix by him.


WY: You know how to tango or not? Keep stepping on my foot.
Dom: (Thinking) Of course tak boleh lar. You see my face also know lor.


WY: Haiyer, you ar... we hafta go dancing tonite and you never practice! This deserves a nipple pinch!
Dom: Aarrrggghh...!


Dom: Ok... I'm leady! I look like Tony Leung, sure kill all those girls.


WY: I think this time can win the Miss Bedak Sejuk contest!


Ready to paint the town red.


Suddenly got riot in town.
Dom: Die you baddies... have a taste of my Tommy Gun...!!!
WY: (Thinking) Wah! Dom so man... I like!


WY: I shall be submissive Asian women now, dear. You're so man!


WY: Sigh! How did I become so genteel?


Dom: Now I can be lan see... bully me...
WY: Don't push it... ah pek!


Dom: Yikes... sei sing pat koi... (old habits die hard)
WY: GET YOU ARSE HERE AND TANGO!


And they live vintagely ever after.

Here's some scene behind the shoot:
