Testimonial from couple: Dan + Jessica Mah

My husband Dan and I got engaged 14 years ago in the UK while we were only graduate students who couldn’t afford professional photography. Not only did we miss out on pre-wedding photos, but we had a very low budget wedding without much to remember it by. Now, 14 years later, we have built our life in the US with busy jobs and 2 small kids so we rarely get the opportunity to feel glamorous. This past summer, we travelled to Penang to visit my mother-in-law. I decided that now might be the time to make up for our missed pre-wedding photos since photography is more affordable in Malaysia than in the UK or US. Dan and I also lost about 120 lbs together over the past year and we wanted to celebrate our new found health. Vernon, Kat and their team helped us to achieve that feeling of captured glamour and beauty. We are so pleased with the photos that will last us a life time.

What made us chose Vernon over other photographers that I researched online was his use of light and angles, as well as the drama of the natural environment. For our photo session, we chose the Tropical Spice Garden for our personal theme and the Peranakan Mansion for our formal theme. One of the photos from the Tropical Spice Garden is now the wallpaper on my computer at work and my coworkers comment daily on how beautiful it is. Some who know me well ask why I look 25 years younger in the picture, but even coworkers whom I don’t know stop to tell me how much they enjoy seeing the photos that I place on my computer wallpaper. I tell them that the credit goes all to the talented photographer and his editing skills.

Dan and I love the Perankan Mansion photos so much that we enlarged 5 shots and made huge canvas art pieces to decorate our living room wall above our fireplace. Friends on facebook call the photos stunning, regal, and perfect. One person said that our event looked better than the wedding from Crazy Rich Asian, which was the popular movie that was playing in the theater during the month that we had our photo session.

I feel a little guilty that we had this great experience without including our 2 kids in the pictures, but it’s nice to have a fresh romantic moment after being married for so many years. Maybe we will go through this again for our 25th year anniversary and allow our kids to be in the photos next time! I will be tempted to hire Momento if I visit Penang again, even though I don’t need any more formal pictures.

Kat was a pleasure to work with. We exchanged detailed emails for weeks between the US and Malaysia in preparation for meeting in person. She was always prompt, professional and courteous with her responses. She was also great in helping me choose the perfect gown rental. (I love that dress so much! My friends keep asking if there’s a way for me to buy it.)

Jamie, the hairstylist and makeup artist, also made me feel so comfortable with the experience. Even though my husband and I are over 40, we’ve never had anyone do our hair or makeup before so it felt awkward at first. I trusted Kat and Jamie with their ideas for hair and accessories and it turned out just right! Kenny, the assistant photographer, was also very nice to work with. I took all the edited proofs and made a photobook on Shutterfly. I had to include the final selfie team picture with Vernon, Kat, Jamie, Kenny, Dan and myself because they all made the experience so enjoyable and memorable.

 

 

Testimonial from couple: Roy Ang + Vivian Goh

5 stars studio.

I booked both pre-wedding and wedding from Momento and the reason why is rather simple – no hidden cost and we love their photographs.

We had 2 days pre-wedding photoshoot in Bali back in June, Vernon make us believe that our money well spent. The service received was phenomenal, still remember when we went to hidden canyon, just because Vernon want to take some photo from different angle, he decided to walk down to the rapid river and stand between 2 stones that are not visible. Of course, the photos were fantastic and we loved it so much.

Then we decided to use their service during actual day and when we speak about the package, Vernon is providing his professional advice for me to go for the lower package since my dinner come first than the actual day so same day editing may not be useful, eventually, the photo comes in only 1 month after my wedding but the photos were edited nicely and even my friends and family members loved it.

Wedding is only once in a lifetime, so make your choice wisely.

 

 

Testimonial from couple: Zhi Feng + Celestine Ong

Vernon is a professional and very accommodating to our needs throughout the duration of our pre-wedding photoshoot. Enquiries are dealt with efficiently, and over all service is great too! Really appreciate that our pictures could be ready in this short time frame

 

 

Testimonial from couple: Zhi Feng + Celestine Ong

We visited Momento wedding as one of our potential prewedding shoot vendor. Their photography skills captured our attention and we chose Momento wedding out of the few other wedding boutique we visited at Georgetown. No regrets at all. I have my prewedding shoot today by Momento wedding. And the whole process was seamless and fuss free (they were super professional!). I am just super impressed with everything from gown fitting to schedule planning and etc. I could go on and on about what they have done well in today shoot. But honestly in short, I would just like to say that I would highly recommend Vernon and his team to any other people who chanced upon his page or anyone who is reading this now! ? They definitely delivered more than what they promised. 100000 thumbs up!

 

Testimonial from couple: Joe Loo + Kayan Looi

来来来我也来凑热闹
写写一些感言 大家在选择婚纱照这part应该会有头痛，担心价钱担心拍出来的效果，尤其是外国摄影….那就看看我怎么打分吧

首先先说说我们的摄影师Vernon Kong
初次见面对他的印象就是很serious的一个人，
那时我觉得惨了他这么serious就不能傻了会很压力 因为我没有model的条件拍照会很木…
但原来他也和我一样疯 很好说话很friendly也很贴心，还记得第一次在Mykonos 见面时 他就问我你怕冷吗？我说我很怕 他就说那你有带厚的外套来吗…答案是没有
他二话不说就拿了他自己的外套借我
有见过他的人都懂，这人长得很高
他的衣等于我的裙
在出国前一天也提醒了我们那里的天气
整个trip来说他是一个蛮贴心的摄影师

Testimonial from couple: Adam + Melinda

My husband and I decided to engage Momento for our pre-wedding and wedding day shooting. Initially, we were quite worry after friends shared on their shooting experiences and photos with other photographers.
However, both of us rest assured after seeing the outcomes from Vernon which proved that our worries are unnecessary and redundant. We like the photos very much, especially on our wedding day, they are lovely natural photos. Vernon really did a great job on the most important day in our life by capturing all those precious moments from start to finish for us and our guests. ????????????????????????
Received compliments and good feedback from our guests and friends on the photos and SDE too.
Thanks Vernon for the beautiful photos and Kat for the coordination!
We have the most wonderful set of photos to look back on in years to come ❤️

Testimonial from couple: Xiang Kee + Qiu Yan

Engaged Momento Wedding for our wedding actual day photoshoot, by Vernon & Kenny. They are both punctual and very friendly. Montage prepared by Momento Wedding was very impressive and satisfied with it. Can’t wait to receive the rest of the photos.

 

 

Testimonial from couple: Steve + Rowena

Vernon and his team did an excellent job with us. We had a lot of fun exploring all the places in Penang while capturing our precious moments. Vernon lets us have our own fun too and is able to give us advice on the things we want to try out. There were some not-so-great moments like road block at peranakan museum, or being forced out of the museum when time is up but the team kept their composure and kept me comfortable in all the outfits in the hot, humid weather. Kat is absolutely professional in helping me in and out of my dresses on top of accommodating our crazy tight schedule during CNY; Jamie was really fun to work with as I came up with funky ideas for my hair, her humor helped ease the discomfort during the hot weather. Vernon is excellent in giving clear instructions on how to pose, where to move and where to look; I wasn’t so sure if I’d look stiff in the photos but to my surprise, they turned out awesome! Always trust a professional!

 

 

Testimonial from couple: Chong Wee + Carol

Momento Wedding did an impressive job at our wedding last Sunday. We engaged Momento Wedding as our photographer & videographer for actual day, and I must admit that it was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. The team led by Vernon were very professional in every aspect of the job. We had a tight schedule for the day (needing to travel to 3 locations) and despite the hecticness, Vernon and the team manage to capture really beautiful moments of our day. This is most noticeable in the 2 SDEs which they produce – it was simply beyond our expectation. They made the experience most enjoyable and memorable. Excellent work you guys!! Me and my wife couldn’t be more grateful to have such a great team with us on our big day, and we look forward to seeing more of Momento’s works in weddings to come.

 

 

Testimonial from couple: Bar + MC

First of all, I don’t think Momento need reviews. Their work speaks for itself. It is more than incredible.

When we were looking for a wedding photographer online and we stumbled upon Vernon’s portfolio we couldn’t believe how amazing his shots were. They were in a league of their own. So we got in contact with Vernon and Kat.

The first thing that struck us about Vernon and Kat are how passionate they were about their job. How lovely and welcoming treatment from them.

During our pre wedding session, Momento moves as professional team. They are transparent and they didn’t stop until we did it.
As the result, the photo outcomes were “the best photos we are ever going to have of ourselves”

Vernon’s photos tell the story of the day like we remember it personally. Every photo captures the magic, the emotion and the personality of us to the finest detail.

Momento was worth every dollar its cost. We wish you all the success in the future, thanks again Kat and Vernon!

This is a note to say thank you for everything you both have done over the last few days. Thank you so much for all your hard work in making this pre-wedding shoot a successful one. Maren and I are eagerly waiting to see your magical touch. You and Becky were an incredibly talented photographer and make up artist. Its a real pleasure to have worked with you both. Also thanks alot for helping us around about food, transportation and etc. Definitely we will miss all the crazy moments we had together for these 4 days…We know it’s isnt that easy to survive long in other country especially when language becomes a barrier. Have a safe journey back guys. Miss you’ll! We will definitely be highly recommending you to anyone who requires a wedding photographer for both local and overseas photoshoot.

Thank you Vernon and the Momento team for your patience and expertise, in capturing those amazing moments of our actual wedding day! You must have been to so many weddings and ours was probably no different to the many weddings you attended, but your professionalism, passion and skills proved to be unwavering!

 

Testimonial from couple: Wei Sin + Wan Peng

Momento Wedding offers services beyond our expectations!
We’re so thankful for those beautiful photos taken by Vernon & the happy photoshooting experience. Their packages are so reasonable priced especially for an award winning photographer. We may hear some stories from couples complaining about the extra or hidden charges when they sign up for pre-wedding photo packages but you can rest assured that this will not happen in Momento Wedding, everything in the package is clearly listed & well explained by Vernon & Kat.
Vernon is a very professional photographer and taught us how to strike a post patiently while Kat is very helpful on choosing the right gowns for the bride. Not to mention their stunning collection of gowns, I was informed that their gowns were handpicked and some were designed by local designer where you can’t find the same piece in other bridal boutiques. The team of Momento Wedding is awesome and we can feel their passion in this industry. We strongly recommend Momento Wedding to couples who are getting married or those who wish to capture their sweet & precious moments in their lifetime.
Thank you Momento Wedding once again & keep it up!

 

Testimonial from couple: JJ + Chloe

Hey Vernon, thank you for flourishing your amazing photography skills on our wedding day. The pictures you and Kit took are amazing. The SDE video you guys produced during the wedding got me in awe. Me and Chloe can’t stop watching the video. It really was a great experience having you guys taking our photos. You and Kit have captured every moment perfectly, and I must say you guys exceeded our expectations. There’s a saying that a picture is worth a thousand word. But the picture you guys took means much more than that. It’s amazing how you guys could make one special day all fit into a short video clip. Thank you so much for your hardwork and proficiency. I am definitely recomending you to all my friends who are getting married in the future. And thank you for coming all the way from Penang just to shoot our wedding.

Testimonial from couple: Isaac + Patricia

What happen if 2 person, who never ever been in a photoshoot before, didn’t know how to pose, it will surely annoys most photograhpers.
But, that’s different from Vernon, who was patient in teaching us how to pose, teaching us how to pose to make us looks good, and giving us encouragement as well, to make the photoshoot a fun time for us, instead of a stressful time.
He is open for suggestion on where to shoot, giving us advice on where to shoot. He also know what he wants, the angles, the style, which makes it easier for us to pose as well. Overall, he is super professional, and friendly, and fun to have our pre-wedding shoot to be taken by him.
Besides that, his team of bridal house, assistant photographer, and make up artist was so professional and helpful throughout the shoot.
No doubt is tiring, but its all worth it. No doubt that there is no hidden charges, what is advertise is what you pay and get.
So I encourage you guys who are planning to have your pre-wedding shoot, please consider Momento Wedding. You will feel satisfied and will never regret the decision made.
