Aidan: The winter weddings continue in Hanoi, and the Interncontinental is fast becoming the most popular hotel in town for photoshoots. And for good reason – Thang and Chi absolutely loved shooting here, and had no problem getting comfortable in front of the camera in these beautiful surroundings. We’re really looking forward to the wedding...
Aidan: These images are from Cuong and Khoa’s wonderful Hanoi wedding. Aidan covered the festivities along with our sometime photographic assistant Phuong, who helped capture the flavor at both the Hanoi Hotel and later on at the Intercontinental. Wedding season in North America coincides with great spring/summer/fall weather, and beautiful light. Wedding season in Vietnam,...
Last weekend Aidan got about four hours sleep, between shooting and traveling he was working almost 40 hours to photograph a wedding in Halong Bay and an an hoi in Hanoi before capturing Vietnam’s football team making history in The Suzuki Cup. First up was David and Thu Ha’s lovely ceremony on board a junk...
Julian: I was walking around downtown Saigon a few weeks back, and ducked into the Ho Chi Minh City History Museum, which like most museums here is an interesting mix of fact, fiction, and extreme kitsch. Its a favorite haunt of Saigon wedding photographers, mostly because of the grand staircase in the main hallway, which...
Last weekend Aidan and I flew down to Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) to shoot what some social circles have been calling the wedding of the year in Vietnam at The Caravelle Hotel.

Kenneth emailed me from Hong Kong a few months ago. He and his girlfriend Eunice were planning a trip to Vietnam, and he was going to propose during the journey. He wanted to spend half a day in Hanoi taking casual, fun pictures of them touring the city. Unfortunately, we ran into some of the...
Marc and Hien’s An Hoi was hosted in her family’s house in the Bach Dang area of Hanoi, a great neighbourhood along the riverside, behind the Opera House. I love shooting An Hoi, because it is the traditional Vietnamese element of weddings here: the groom’s entourage arrives in cyclos bearing gifts, to ask permission for...
We actually took these photos at the end of May, but work and holidays piled up and we were only able to post them here now. Zui and Linh wanted some engagement photos done in Hanoi, and we wanted to find somewhere outdoor but private. I had shot Zen Spa last year for a Canadian...
Aidan and I are now knee-deep editing the China Beach wedding shoot for Anthony and Sammi. They live in Hong Kong, Anthony is Australian, Sammi is Vietnamese, and they decided to fly over here for the wedding. Luckily, the weather gods were smiling this past weekend, and we got uninterrupted sunshine on the big day,...
