Desre & Magtellus : Sarojin Resort, Khao Lak Wedding
Julian: Desre and Magtellus traveled over 10,000 kilometers for their wedding – from Cape Town, South Africa to The Sarojin, Khao Lak, Thailand. So there was no way they were going to let a little rain dampen their wedding day. Which is good, because it’s rainy season in Thailand, and that means some serious downpours. [...]
Kat & Jason : Halong Bay wedding
Julian: I headed out to Halong Bay a few weeks to photograph the very, very intimate wedding of Kat and Jason. Their only guest was their friend Hollie, and I became their fourth wheel for the afternoon. Someone had to help create symmetry at the lunch table as Jason dined on fresh crabs and everyone [...]
Kim & Scott : 6 Senses Hideaway, Ninh Van Bay, Nha Trang
Aidan: Having got engaged there one year before, Kim and Scott brought there close family and friends back to Ninh Van Bay a year later, to the truly breathtaking 6 Senses Hideaway. Kim and her siblings had taken a break from touring with their rock band “Krill” to spend some time in paradise! A beach [...]
Nhu & Mets: Diamond Bay Resort, Nha Trang
Aidan: Diamond Bay Resort, famed for hosting Miss World 2008 was the stunning venue for Nhu and Mets wedding. Brining dozens of their families and friends over from New Zealand and Australia, they really were here to enjoy themselves. Laughing and joking all day, Nhu and Mets were great hosts and by the time the [...]

Truc & Jason : Ho Chi Minh City wedding
Julian: Man, did Aidan and I have fun at this wedding. Truc and Jason came over from Australia for their nuptials in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City), and brought an amazing group of family and friends along with them. The day was split into two, with a traditional Vietnamese ceremony at Truc’s mother’s home in [...]
Kim & Dane : Hoi An Wedding
Julian: Kim and Dane are a lovely young Aussie couple who decided to marry in Hoi An earlier this spring. I haven’t been to a wedding yet where there’s been such obvious love and support from the tight knit families and friends who traveled over for the big day. It was easy to see that [...]
Novita & Juien, La Perla Hideaway Retreat Bai Tram, Quy Nhon
Novita and Julien wanted to re-new their wedding vows with their two young children, Regina and Sebastien. The location was the beautiful Bai Tram Resort near Quy Nhon, Vietnam. With its own secluded sweeping bay, luxurious villas and an old French house, all set in the local countryside this really was a choice location. The [...]
Joleigh & Marcus : Hoi An wedding
Julian: Joleigh and Marcus met in Vietnam a few years back, and decided to fly over from London to have their wedding in Hoi An. After all, with their families in Australia and South Africa, why not meet somewhere in the middle (kindof)? Image by Julian The ceremony was set for the fantastic Red Bridge [...]
1 week, 4 weddings, 6948 images
Julian: Last week I shot four weddings – one in Saigon (with Aidan) and three in Hoi An/Danang. They were all unique, and amazingly good fun, but at the end of it, I could barely see straight. In fact, at the last one, when I was setting up a remote strobe for the first dance, [...]
Joel & Vinuon : Wedding in Siem Reap, Cambodia
Julian: What do you get when you mix the sheer beauty of Angkor, the brute power of Kung Fu Panda, and the finest of fine tequilas flown in from around the globe? InOpulencia – Joel and Vinuon’s fabulous multi-day wedding in Siem Reap, Cambodia. Vinuon’s family is Khmer (and Joel’s is Filipino), so they had [...]
The things they carried….
Julian: Last week I shot a wedding in Siem Reap, Cambodia, something I’ve wanted to do for a long time. Not sure there’s a more photogenic spot in Southeast Asia, and the wedding was split into traditional Khmer ceremonies and a western reception, so it had a little bit of everything, and a whole lot [...]
Brian and Aneela : Wedding at The Sarojin, Khao Lak, Thailand
Aidan: Hailing from Texas and Trinidad, Brian and Aneela met in Edinburgh before traveling over half the globe and now residing in Singapore. Despite always wanting to discover new places, one country always stuck out for them and it was Thailand that they chose to get married in. The location was the award-winning boutique hotel, [...]
Duong Thuy Linh & Andy Nguyen Viet Thang : Hanoi Wedding
Julian & Aidan: Thuy Linh and Andy’s magnificent wedding at the Daewoo Hotel in Hanoi managed to seat over a thousand people into the grounds outside by the pool, which was really so much nicer than inside a dimly lit ballroom. I really enjoyed photographing Thuy Linh as she and her bridesmaids prepared for the [...]
Thuy & Evan: Hanoi Wedding
A lost passport and canceled flights due to heavy snow didn’t prevent Thuy and Evan making the long journey over from the US to Vietnam. Evan’s mother was making her first ever trip out of the US and his father’s first for 40 years. However he quickly picked up the language and his speech, delivered [...]
Donna & Steve : Khao Lak wedding
Julian: Last week I flew to Thailand to photograph Donna and Steve’s wedding in Khao Lak, a gorgeous beach area near Phuket that was flattened by the tsunami five years ago. I spent three weeks covering the tsunami aftermath there five years ago, and it was a bit emotional getting back there. It’s great to [...]
Tuyen & Nhi : The Inter Continental Hotel Hanoi Wedding
Aidan: After relocating to HCMC its always fun to return to Hanoi for a wedding and what better place than The Inter Continental Hotel. The weather denied us a reception at The Sunset Bar but they put on a stunning dinner in the ballroom.
Vinh & Diep : Hanoi Wedding
Julian: Two weeks ago we photographed Vinh And Diep’s Hanoi wedding. Vinh is a worldly young man who studied in France, Canada and the US, and its remarkably romantic that he married Diep, the girl next door (or, the girl from about a block and a half away). The weather gods were not smiling on [...]
Cynthia & Michael : Saigon Wedding
Aidan: This was one of the most fun weddings we have shot, full of games and entertainment, and back to the stunning Park Hyatt Hotel in Ho Chi Minh City. Julian was caught covering Typhoon Ketsana in Central Vetnam, so we called in Francois from NOI pictures to help out with the day’s coverage. We [...]
Natalia & Jaroslaw : Hanoi & Halong Bay Wedding
Aidan: Natalia and Jaroslaw loved Hanoi so much when they visited two years ago that they brought their families over from Poland to get married here. A relaxing day cruising in Halong Bay was followed by a cyclo ride to a pagoda in The Botanical Gardens for a beautiful ceremony by the lake, with dinner [...]
Vietnamese wedding fashion show
Julian: Weddings are big business in Vietnam. The global economic meltdown hasn’t deterred young couples in Hanoi and Saigon from spending money on lavish affairs. These images are from a wedding fashion show in Hanoi, where industry vendors showed off their latest wares for the 2009 wedding season. And if the designers are to be [...]
