I am a pharmacist in study, but a photographer in trade and heart! I am the husband of my dear wife Michelle (the editor) and the father of two healthy boys (the monsters).
I blame my wife for pushing me into this profession. I blame her for forcing me to follow something that releases my passion to be creative. She is the one to blame when I catch that moment when a tear falls from a bride's eye during an embrace or when the reaction a groom expresses when he sees his bride to be for the first time walking down the isle in her wedding dress.
Thats what my life is. I love to shoot. You can blame my wife for pushing me to do this, but you can blame me for loving it!
Thanks for visiting again! I have finally updated the blog site to WordPress and I am soo happy with it. I used moveable type and was so disappointed with the interface!!!
Ill be posting more often because of this, so please keep an eye out!!! Ill leave you with a cute picture of my son… I know, not really wedding related, but I always wanted to play with the wireless strobes to light up a car… In this case — lightning McQueen!!
I used 2 off camera flash (one under the car and on the side, Mcqueen didn’t like the catch light too much and the plastic frame was a little too thin so the red got to his face)
1 MicroPro LED for the hair line light (Just to see how i’d look)
I had a few better pics, but the model was a little fussy!!! I still LOVE the outcome!
I just love referrals! I met Maysa and Jeremiah from Mychau’s wedding. Maysa is Yotin’s cousin and is busy finishing school off and planning a wedding! Congrats to the future newlyweds! We ventured out the the Morton Arboretum on a chilly October morning to find a wonderful day full of color and life! Amazingly on that day, the weather didn’t keep nature lovers from flocking to the garden to see and feel the last remnants of fall!
The wait is OVER! The MyChau and Yotin slide show is officially done. The day was planned so well and the photographs came out so good that it was hard to break it down to the 100+ pictures that actually made it to the final cut of the movie! Congrats to both of them as they begin this journey together. I am proud to say I was there when they started to date and was there to witness their union! They look so natural together and I was happy that they chose Patrick Louie Photography to document the day!
The rest of the photos are in the gallery… Currently it is locked until the bride and groom can look thru it. Check back in a few days when I get the ok from them!!!
We have already completed a rough draft of their wedding book and I cant wait to finish that as well. We will post the final as it is done! Can’t wait!
Nuong and Hao finally got hitched!!!! What a hectic ride it has been for those two! It was an honor on being their wedding photographer! I’m sure they had a blast and are relieved that its OVER!!! Here are a few shots!
We’ve been busy editing and shooting, but I’ve finally got around to blog about a wedding that I second a few weeks ago with @dangin. It started out a chilly day, but ended up PERFECT! Congrats!
Here are some samples from Ashley and David’s wedding!!
