Congratulations to Matt and Alana | Adelaide Wedding Photography

Ladies and Gentlemen, presenting Matt and Alana... Adelaide Wedding Photography

Thank you for choosing Scott Goh Photography | Adelaide Wedding Photography as your wedding photographer. Photos can also be seen in our Facebook page via this link.

This wedding has been a personal challenge for me. It's my first wedding as a "Father". My baby is born 2 days before this wedding. Part of me is still exhausted by the birth experience, the other part of me is excited about this wedding that I have prepared and waiting for a while.

I met Matt and Alana about a year ago. Matt works overseas while Alana stays in Adelaide. My wife and I had such experiences being apart for a couple of years. It is tough to maintain long distance relationship. Thumbs up to Matt and Alana.

Temperature was pretty decent on the day but the guys' suits really make them sweat. By night, the weather is just pleasant.

(How To) Photoshop Wedding photos - Merge photos

(How To) Photoshop Wedding photos - Merge photos As a professional photographer, knowing how to use Adobe Photoshop is very useful. Unfortunately, knowing photoshop is not one of the requirement to be a good photographer. Photo editing process does not stop after the finish of each photo session.

Wedding is tiring and very fast pace. Often, important people might just happen not to be around at the same time for a photo. I was asked by the mother of a recent bride to photoshop merge a couple of photos into a single family portrait. One of my photo principles is to ensure that the images that clients received do not look "Photoshopped"/fake.

Photo below: This is the outcome of the first image that was asked. I am very pleased with the result.

Before I agreed on the task, I spent some time looking through the photos that were taken during the wedding. I look for 1. individual expressions 2. lighting 3. angle where photos are taken. In all photoshop work, there will be one single background photo to start with.

I don't take easy way out. I want the best outcome as I understand that there is a chance that these photos will printed and hung onto someone's wall.

Photo below: This is the base photo which is the background. This photo contains the Groom, Bride, Mum and Dad (Both on the right of the couple). I will need to remove the Groom's parents from this photo. I love the expressions except corrections on the Groom's eye.

Photo below: These are the eyes of the groom that will be used. The image of the bride sister is a good potential to be used. Also, you can see that sister's gown (bottom left) needs to be either covered or photoshop. Initially, I thought of using the image of the bride's brother here but he will be the only person standing in the second row. So I prefer him to be standing in front as well. Finally, only the eyes from the groom is selected from this photo.

Photo below: This is the photo of the sister that I will use. Good full body.

Photo below: This is the photo of the brother that I will use. Good full body photo. Can't complain much about this.

Photo below: Next, I actually selected a photo of the nephew standing but decided not to go for it as the lighting and colour don't match with this series. Looking through all the photos again of the nephew, he was quite agitated and was not very pleased in front of my camera. All the photos of the nephew in this series were being carried by the mum (bride's mum) . However, nearly all the photos, the photos of mum (bride's mum) carrying nephew were nearly half face covered. Finally, I decided to take the photo of the nephew and photoshop him into the arms of the existing image of mum standing. It works!

Photo below: Final correction are made to adjust for a better expression on the nephew's face. This is the expression that i used.

That's it. :)

Please only use original licensed copy of Adobe Photoshop. I am using the latest CS6 version which can be puchased directly from Adobe on this link.

(How to) Dance Gangnam Style in Wedding Reception

Gangnam Style in Wedding Reception | Scott Goh Photography Gangnam Style has made it's way topping charts around the world. It's also getting into wedding receptions. If you are the bride, groom or guests attending a coming wedding, do not fear. The article seeks to teach you a few tricks to rock and roll on the dances floor with Gangnam style.

Firstly, let have some background on the Gangam Style. Just in case you are being asked, what the song is all about... Below is a copy from Wikipedia on Gangam Style.

"Gangnam Style" is a Korean neologism that refers to a lifestyle associated with the Gangnam District of Seoul, where people are trendy, hip and exude a certain supposed "class." The term was listed in Time's weekly vocabulary list as a manner associated with lavish lifestyles in Seoul's Gangnam district. PSY likened the Gangnam District to Beverly Hills, California, and said in an interview that he intended in a twisted sense of humour by claiming himself to be "Gangnam Style" when everything about the song, dance, looks, and the music video is far from being such a high class.

Next, let's have a look at the official PSY youtube video. Take note of his dance steps.

Finally, below is link to a news article containing a pdf (in www.news.com.au) that teaches you how to dance Oppa Gangnam Style. Follow the step-by-step guide and refresh what you learnt from the original YouTube video.
