Jenny + Johnny {Engagement}

Jenny and Johnny wanted to incorporate a place that meant something special to them in their engagement session. So naturally, the place where Johnny proposed to Jenny would be the perfect spot! We decided to just having a nice casual day of wine tasting in the wine country. I had to pick out some spots [...]

Sana + Ali {Engagement}

Sana approached me back in May after seeing a wedding I photographed of a mutual friend on Facebook. Super excited with plans for her wedding, we began to chat about how to make this all happen! Sana and Ali are easily my most passionate couple! (I am not suppose to call them clients anymore because [...]

Christine + James {Photobooth}

A fun set of images from the photobooth from Christine + James’ wedding!

Christine + James {Wedding}

Christine and James found me through one of Pris’ classmates and we meet awhile ago at a coffee shop near our place. Right away I knew they were a very easy going and fun loving couple! Super nice to deal with and just made everything very easy! The wedding began with Christine’s getting ready at [...]

Sana + Arman {Rave}

Sana and Arman had their wedding a couple months ago. The emotions of the day were amazing and the images definitely reflected that. Me being the shameless self that I am, asked Sana and Arman to give me some feedback to see if they have anything nice to say about me! Dear Rocky, Although your [...]

Kiwi

We recently got a new puppy!! I have always wanted a dog but my family and I have been too busy to take on the big commitment. Now that my dad is retired and is home most of the day, we figured it is a good time to add a new member to our family! [...]

Kat + Morgan {Wedding}

I had the chance to shoot for Kevin Lam awhile back for this wedding. This was our first time working together and I thought things went very smoothly on Kat and Morgan’s special day! Thanks for breaking the rules and trying out a Nikon second shooter for the very first time, Kevin! The wedding day [...]

Thanh + Henry {Engagement Party}

Thanh and Henry had a beautiful engagement party. Very intimate with family and close friends. They had a traditional Vietnamese engagement ceremony which is considered very important in the Vietnamese culture. Back in the day, this is essentially when both families would meet for an arranged marriage. Safe to say this is probably not the [...]

Simat + JT {Guestbook}

So from Simat + JT’s awesome engagement shoots part i and part ii we put together a nice guest signing book for them for the wedding day. Pris designed it because apparently I have no design senses… Click here for the slideshow of the layout! Cheers!

Simat + JT {Wedding}

After two amazing E-shoots (Part i and Part ii), Simat and Jatinder’s big day has finally arrived. It was a week long festivity with guests coming from all over to celebrate the unity these two awesome individuals! Simat and JT are truly awesome clients! They spent a great deal of time and effort into every [...]

Caren + Nigel

My friend Chris from Avant Documentary Photography invited me to provide some secondary coverage for one of his weddings. It was quite refreshing as I have not done a Chinese wedding in awhile and this was a very traditional Chinese wedding. Very relaxed wedding party and things worked out nicely for a lovely wedding! Enjoy

Sana + Arman {Wedding}

Sana and Arman was the first couple that I signed for ROKChoi and that meant a lot to me that these guys entrusted me with their special day, so naturally, I would bend over backwards for them and I almost did when Arman and his crew decided stampede over Sana’s crew during his entrance! Arman [...]

Simat + JT {Engagement} Part ii

After a very successful first E-shoot with Simat and JT, we’re scheduled for their second session with their wedding just around the corner. I’m telling you, these guys came nails done, hair done, everything did! They cared a lot about results of the engagement session and came very prepared. The first shoot was a low-key, [...]

make-shift boom

This was one of my favourite set-ups from Simat + JT’s engagement shoot. I really like the straight-on top-down lighting scheme. In the past, I usually did this by having someone hold the light from behind and tilted towards the subject, but it’s pretty limiting. A boom would be the ideal solution but would need [...]

Simat + JT {Engagement}

This is Simat and JT’s first of two e-shoots we are having and I was prepared to go all out to impress them. Simat was really set on a rustic farm, country road themed shoot but unfortunately the weather didn’t work out but I’m sure they are kind of glad it rained after seeing a [...]
