(1) No Money, No Honey

This is usually one of the first obstacles that the groom’s party has to go through. The bridesmaids will ask for an amount of money to be given to them before they allow the groomsmen into the house. The usual amounts are usually HK$ 888 or HK$ 999. This is because 8 is considered lucky in Chinese culture. On the other hand, 9 represents eternity, which is fitting for the start of a marriage.

Vendor Spotlight on An Ant Capture: A Closer Look at Wedding Photojournalism

June 13, 2017 / Posted by in Photo & Video

We featured a Koh Samui wedding a few days earlier, and many readers noticed the difference in style.

Rico is the chief photographer and creative director of An Ant Capture, whose style reflects a photojournalistic approach to wedding photography.

 

What is photojournalism?

“Photojournalism is a pure approach to record incidents with photographs,” Rico explains. However, what makes it truly unique is that it goes beyond a mere pretty picture, and almost always tells a story that is full of emotions. The focus is therefore different because while all photographs are a capture of events in time, not all pictures are a capture of emotions. Photojournalism captures both, and sometimes even much more.
