Daniel Yap – The Wedding & Portrait Photographer bio picture

Welcome to my world

When I was about 12 years old, my dad started to teach me some
basics in photography. Back then, all the cameras were using film. And
everyone in the family has a camera, mostly point-n-shoot. However,
dad's camera is something different from ours, his camera is heavier
and bigger, with funny looking barrel (lens) - a SLR. And this is where
I started to have interest in photography.

I remember once we went to the a park near Tawau old airport, dad had his camera setup on a tripod to take our family portrait in black and white. It was pretty amazing to see there's an auto timer to do so.

My mission

Back in year 2005, my passion for photography grew even deeper and I
always wanted to capture photos as seen in National
Geographic. My dream and goal is to attend WPPI (Wedding & Portraits Photographers International) events with other professional photographers - to learn and share our passions in Las Vegas.
How I see things

Everything is created beautifully. There's always a moment for everything. I always thank God for all the wonderful experiences I had and never stop counting my blessings.

Devina and Sandeep Wedding Celebration SDE Preview

1 comment

They are the super sweet, super loving, super cool and super wonderful couple I have known.

This is my very first Punjabi wedding photography assignment (5 days of wedding celebration!). It’s super awesome and I love the whole wedding process. Every moment is about fun and there so much dancing and singing throughout the whole 5 days event. Yupe, 5 days. And the beautiful rhythm of dhol is still beating in my mind (it’s a musical instrument produces high bass with very energetic tone).

Day 1: Sangeet Night for Sandeep
Day 2: Sangeet Night for Devina
Day 3: ROM and Oil Ceremony on each side + Mehendi Ceremony (henna) for Devina
Day 4: Actual Wedding Day and Luncheon
Day 5: Wedding Reception with 1000 guests (TYT of Penang was the guest of honor on that evening)

Here’s the highlights of their 4 days wedding celebration, and this slideshow is being shown on the 5th day during their wedding reception at Equatorial Hotel Penang.

p/s: total memory card capacity used for the 5 days celebration is about 80 GB.
