Carmel engagement session photographer | HIMYM-inspired theme | Angela and Eugene

Junshien — Fri, 04 May 2012 19:57:35 +0000

Here’s one incredibly fun, playful, and lively couple… Angela and Eugene are big fans of How I Met Your Mother, and wanted to incorporate elements of the show into their session. Since it wasn’t quite feasible to head over to New York to shoot in a bar, they decided to pull in a couple details. Fans of HIMYM should be able to pick out the allusions in these pictures. =P

Makeup Artist/Hair Stylist: Christina Chen; Makeup by Quis
Wardrobe styling: Kate Wang

Lunchboxes have special meaning for these two. When they first met at a birthday party for a mutual friend, Angela had brought a bag of games and lunchbox full of cards. Eugene, being fond of games himself, was immensely impressed!

This has got to be the most RANDOM picture I’ve ever taken for an engagement session. Props to Angela and Eugene for braving the freezing cold! I was bundled up in a jacket and hoodie, and even that wasn’t warm enough for me!

Managed to squeeze off these shots right before the sun slipped below the horizon.

Melbourne pre-wedding photography | Miranda and Ronald

Junshien — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 14:12:36 +0000

One of the blessings of our job is being able to meet clients from all around the world. Miranda and Ronald are a sweet couple from Hong Kong, and were originally going to come to California for their pre-wedding pictures. But when we announced that we were going to be shooting in Australia, they managed to also plan a trip to coincide with our dates.

It was a full day of shooting, with quite a bit of traveling inbetween! We started in Melbourne, then headed off to Brighton Beach, and then finished up at Yarra Valley! Due to the logistics, we had to take two separate cars, and Miranda had to drive for the first time in years! Major props to her, because it’s not easy especially with Melbourne rush hour traffic!

Session Phtographers: Jen & Junshien; Junshien International
Makeup Artist/Hair Stylist: Christina Chen; Makeup by Quis

Dusk, fallen tree, green hill in the background, winery at the top of the hill, good looking couple … yes please!

The famous Brighton Beach bathing boxes!

The best sessions often happen when the couple is relaxed, having fun and just being themselves! :)

The ocean was an important part of Miranda and Ronald’s wedding as he had proposed underwater while scuba diving!

Surprise water fight *started by Miranda*! :P The composition isn’t the best, and Ronald is a little out of focus. But for us, we love this shot for the spontaneous moment it captures, and for their laughter which we can still practically hear. :)

Sweet as Macarons!

Melbourne’s laneway cafes have so many hidden treasures. This macaron specialty store being one of the many. :)

“I <3 HIM” & “I <3 HER”

With no bathrooms in sight, Miranda was a trooper and we changed into her last look right on the side of the road. Christina changed Miranda into her last look in less than a minute while Jenny finished lacing her up.

Ronald especially looks great in a suit!

Fairytales do come true.

p.s. Special thanks to Jen for shooting and driving us around for the day! You’re seriously uber awesome.

Melbourne engagement session photography | Jenny and Daniel

Junshien — Fri, 30 Mar 2012 18:12:13 +0000

For a wedding photographer, there are few privileges greater than being commissioned by one of your peers. Jenny has been following my work from 2008, and in the years since then, I’ve seen her own photography skills blossom. She has become an amazing artist by her own right, and even won a few international awards. And so when Daniel and she asked me to shoot their engagement session in Melbourne, Australia, I was greatly honored.

This was a ridiculously fun session to shoot.

Selected styling: Kate Wang

We first started off at the General Post Office …

… then made our way along some of Melbourne’s famous alleyways …

… as well as the graffiti walls that the city is known for …

… and then ended up at St Kilda Beach!

Enjoy the photos!

Jenny and Daniel … a big congrats to the both of you!

Los Gatos wedding photography | Wendy and Mike

Junshien — Fri, 16 Mar 2012 13:17:15 +0000

Wendy and Mike have known each other for over 10 years, and their connection definitely shows through in the way they interact with each other. There’s an undeniable kindness and joy that exudes in their relationship, and it was a pleasure for us to photograph one of the most special day of their lives.

We love this quiet photo of the flower girl waiting before the ceremony.

Purple and green are perfect together.

:’)

Everyone’s a wedding photographer! lol

This was one of the takeaway shots of the wedding party, but we love the energy here we had to include it.

Brother of the groom. It isn’t an exaggeration to say that Mike has deeply touched the lives of many.

AT&T Park engagement session photography | San Francisco | Rachel and Joseph

Junshien — Mon, 05 Mar 2012 13:11:45 +0000

Rachel and Joseph are big time Giants fans, and so it was fitting that they did their engagement session at AT&T Park!

Before we start a session, we tell our couples that the most important thing for them to do is just have a good time, and not worry too much about how they look on camera. But we didn’t really need to tell this to Rachel and Joseph, because anybody who spends five minutes with them will immediately realize that they’re such a fun-loving couple. Hopefully these photos convey their personalities and good energy, despite their confessed nervousness before their engagement session! =D

Assistant photographer: David
Wardrobe stylist: Kate Wang
Makeup and hair: Van Pham

matching jerseys!

Recognize the press room?

And here’s the changing room!

Better half. Other half.

Major props to Rachel and Joseph for braving the freezing freezing cold!

Junshien — Wed, 29 Feb 2012 12:56:29 +0000

Jenna and Patrick were married at an intimate ceremony right by the waterfront of the San Francisco Bay. It was a classy wedding, lit mostly by candlelight. Gorgeous white tulips were used through the event, from the bouquets for all the women, to the centerpieces that graced the reception tables.

The groom awaits with anticipation.

Finally, the first look…

Before the ceremony. Groomsmen hanging out at the balcony overlooking the Ferry Building.

Candlelight along with the sparkling night view of San Francisco Bay Bridge made the evening even more magical.

FAQ: What camera should I buy?

Junshien — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 15:48:40 +0000

Question: I’m looking to get into photography, but don’t want to spend too much money. What SLR should I purchase?

Answer: For most people, I actually recommend NOT getting an SLR. They’re bulky, heavy, expensive, and likely something you won’t take with you very many places. It’s like having to bring an extra purse with you everywhere you go! I know many people who have purchased an SLR for whatever reason, and then a few months later, find themselves leaving it at home most of the time. In fact, I hardly ever bring my SLR with me when I’m not on the job!

Most people would be better served getting a regular point and shoot (P&S) camera. They’re lighter, smaller, a whole lot cheaper, and the image quality is almost as good (from what the average person can tell). You’re more likely to bring it around with you when you’re out and about, or even when you’re traveling. The quality of P&S cameras are now a lot better than what they were even a few years ago. Some of the best P&S currently on the market are the Canon S95, Canon G12, Canon ELPH 300, Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5, and Sony Cyber-shot HX9v.

However, if you’re set on purchasing an SLR, go with any of the Canon or Nikon bodies, and you’ll be fine. At the time of this blog post, the Canon Rebel T3 is $440, T2i is $615, T3i is $670, and 60D is $1k. All of them are great cameras and will last several years — it all depends on your budget. However, keep in mind that the lens is more important than the body, so you’ll probably want to shell out at least $400 for a decent lens. Don’t buy the stock lens–they’re usually sub-par, with a few exceptions.

If you’ll be purchasing only one lens, and sticking with that for a while, you’ll want to get a general walkaround lens with a decent zoom range. If you have a Canon body, a good budget lens will be the Tamron 17-50 f/2.8, the Tamron 28-75 f/2.8, or the Canon 18-200 f/3.5-5.6. Some photographers love the Canon 24-105 f/4L, though I’m not a big fan of that lens myself. But if you intend on buying more equipment later, then start with a prime lens. It’ll help you become a better photographer down the road.

Also, consider purchasing 2nd hand equipment — it might save you quite a bit of money.

And if you want to do deeper research, check the reviews on Amazon for specific equipment. I find them to be rather accurate, and they generally give you a good idea of how hundreds of other people use their equipment, the weaknesses and strengths, and potential alternative choices. Also, Amazon prices tend to be cheaper than most other places.

TL;DR: If you’re set on purchasing an SLR, go with the Canon T3i + Tamron 28-75 f/2.8.
