Hi, everyone out there.. can i check with u ppl get back the AD photos from KH? i engage him for my AD on may tis years.. 6 weeks pass and yet to hear from him. tried to call him but failed to reach him. Can anyone advice on tis issues as we r really desperate for the photos. it holds great sentimental values to us... advice greatly appreciated... thanks
 
Hi Nicole,
My friend also signed with KH. Me also..and my wedding is in Sept...my friend's in May too. She got back her photos yesterday. She mention that KH sprain his ankle and limped to pass her photos to her wor. :|
Usually i sms him, he will reply..the slowest next day morning. So I guess he will reply you wan...
 
BTW Nicole,I juz sms my friend and she say she love the photos by KH...im sure you will be able to get yours back..no worries....

Hi Nicole, Gin is rite! I got back my photos just last nite! KH was limping but he still delivered my photos to me rite to my doorstep as we were supposed to meet last tue but bcos he sprained his ankle so cant meet me. So as a form of apology, he delivered my photos to my hse personally with him still limping! He is a VERY sincere person! N I simply LOVE all the shots he took for me.

One other thing is he is a detailed person n he takes pride in his work. He is someone who will work quietly so sometimes ppl might misunderstand tat he is not working. But when u see the photos, you will know tat he is actually finding those small details n taking shots of them to make ur album more meaningful! And he is also an attentive person.

Wat I admire him is he will take e time n pains to literally 'cut' out those small elements n superimposed onto the candid shots. This is why I say he takes pride in his work n a very meticulous person!

So nicole, dun worry! Just call him and if he dun ans then sms him. Usually he will return ur sms the next morning which happened to me too! Rest assured he will get back ur photos n u will be very happy with the photos that he has taken for u!
 
Hi nicole,
I reply ur email liaoz.
happy.gif
I also ask Cheryl, she is my senior and i intro KH to her wan...i also scare he din do his work sia, to come in to clarify things for him....no worries k?
 
hi nicole,
have u found him yet? he usually dun answer calls bcoz he is on assignment, which is good coz i m assured tat he concentrate on taking my photo & not keep answering phone calls.. send him sms and he will reply end of the day or the next morning (after his assignment) dun worry... man-kong-chu-xi-huo.. i m sure u will be satisfy wi ur AD pics and pls share wi me too!
happy.gif
 
Yeah me 2!
happy.gif

All the while only me and sharon speaks here..hehehe...now my senior aka Cheryl joins in...cos we are all the happy customers of KH.
happy.gif
 
Ya nicole. Dun worry too much. U just sms him n he will definitely reply you. I was asking him tat nite when he came to my place abt his schedule. And he said he has pretty tight schedules. He is having another 7-8 assignments to take before Gin's wedding in sept. So u can see he is busy which is a gd sign ya?
 
hi, thanks everyone for the concern. Happy to hear that u people are happy with the AD photos especially cheryl.i think what i can do now is jus to wait for his reply cos really got no other means to contact him.sigh..hope to hear from him soon... cheers...please keep me posted if u people got any useful info..thanks

Hi cheryl and Nicole,
kao_blush.gif

I recently just used him as my photographer.. Just like to know did u pay him in full on AD?

I also like his photos style, hope he does mine nicely too.. Seems like he's very busy these few mths..
 
hi everyone.. finally i received my photos today...to be honest we really like his works.. i must give him credits on his skills and artworks. therefore i must post this msg to clear the air.. we pay him full today when we collect our photos, we only pay 100 deposit b4 actual day..hope tis info is useful to u... ling79
 
hi ling79,
i engaged KH for my ROM and i dunno y i pay in full on my ROM coz tat day too excited liao. hehee... but i think i will pay half on my upcoming AD and another half when i collect the AD photo.. i think tat should b more correct leh..
happy.gif
in anyway u will still recieve ur photos in satisfaction..
happy.gif
 
Hi Nicole,
Glad you got it... I sms him twice to him too...hope he will get back to u soon.
happy.gif

And am glad to hear that good news too. So would u be able to share his work with me? My email is [email protected]
Im still waiting for Cheryl's pics too..actually.
happy.gif
 
Hi Jessica,
Thanks for ur suggestions. In fact $800 for Everafter photographer is slightly more expensive than KH. Anyway Im juz budget concern....
 
Hi gals! Hi Audrey! I have engaged KH as my AD photographer. He did a great job for me. I have been very busy lately so have not upload my photos yet. Will show you gals asap once I have uploaded them.

Hi ling79, I paid $100 deposit when I have decided to engage him and paid him the rest on my AD. He is a trustworthy and humble guy!
 
hi lsh, dun think it is fair for you to post this link here, in the first place it isn't KH's fault...

I think that this thread title should have been laid to rest and if you sincerely want to discuss about KH's work, start a new thread with a more appropriate name.
 
Hi LSH,
I had sms KH and I read the thread too. Please kindly remove the link above as its not his fault at all. Firstly the couple changed the wedding date and KH is not available on that day already so he is already responsible enough to get another replacment photographer. And its that guy who is irresponsible. And unable to get that guy then start writing to the forum and started scolding. Please...everyone muz be fair...I know that KH did some 'bad' things in the past, but who dun deserve another chance? And since he repent already and also paid heavily for the mistake he made, he is now a very responsible person to me! I am abit kapo..so whenever I see anything bad abt him, I will sms him and ask him..he also take the initiative to sms me back. I understand he dun pick up calls as he might be on assignment, but he do reply sms at least one day later which is the latest.
And according to KH, when he offered that guy as photographer to her, she is ok. And perhaps by then, KH pass her deposit to that guy already? And also he had explain to that lady already and yet ppl juz started to gif other comments. There are some ppl who is fair abt judgement, but why cant ppl think both ways? Very sad...

Hi dazed,
I tried to close this thread, but it juz keeps appearing....
 
Hi Gin
I think u should ask KH to call that lady up and explain.... if not she will post again and again..... she is going for a CASE......

Although I agree that it was not KH's fault, he should at least pick up or return that lady call...... u put yrself in her shoe ..... on yr AD, yr photographer did not turn up will u panick? will you call the person who recommend u that photographer to ask for help..... it a natural reaction lor..... I know KH is not at fault but at least he should answer her cal to show his professionalism.
happy.gif
 
hi all,

in the first place, i never say chr** s** aka KH is at fault, i juz post this to share with everyone here, if you think i am trying to fault him, by all means.
 
Hi Cooldevil,
He had already clarify things with that lady already.
Like i mention that he is on assignment tat's y he dun picked up call. If you engaged him to be ur photographer, do you want to see him keep picking up other ppl's call?
Regarding put myself in her shoes, yes I did, this is y I sms KH and ask will he do the same on my AD or not. I feel bad after he replies me.
sad.gif


Hi LSH,
Sorry for mistaken your intentions. Nonetheless, we ladies here are here to vow for KH that he is not the old him anymore. So by posting this here and show everyone is going to tarnish his reputation further. If you were him, how would you feel?
 
Hi Gin
hmmm...that's mean either that lady or KH not telling the truth lor ..... cos KH say got explain but she say he never explain or return call ......

If I were him, I will pick up if the person keep calling or left a urgent sms like above case. he can sense the urgency mah ..... that lady 1st msg say keep calling him the whole friday and saturday ..... A simple reply by saying I'm working will return call later would be fine right?

I aso engage him that why I know he is not taking photos all the time... in btw there will be break esp after the tea ceremony. he can simply reply a sms right? He got to change his attitude on not replying call or sms ... most of all he has to improve his after sale svs skills but I have to say he done a great job on my AD!
happy.gif
 
Hi LSH, KH did my AD photography RECENTLY on 22 May! I can vouch for him tat he is a sincere, responsible, hardworking & humble guy! I just wondering the purpose of u posting this thread here to share with us is on wat kind of basis? Is it to show us that he cannot be trusted n advise us not to engage him or to show us how bad he is? You should know that such posting is damage to his reputation so the purpose of u posting this thread only wants to prove to us its either this 2 objectives rite? Pardon me for being frank but I find that you are pretty rude.

Hi cooldevil, when u r working will u want to be disrupted? Also, if after answering a rude n unreasonable phonecall, it will definitely ruin his mood and he will not be able to concentrate n free his mind to take beautiful pics of the couple on their big day rite? U said he has free time in btn like after tea ceremony rite? If u were him, will u rather rest then entertain phonecalls? U can see it for urself how early he starts work n how late he goes home. N he dun drive. N practically the whole day he has to carry the heavy camera and lens and have to be alert n observant to take candid shots of us. This will require his full concentration which is very taxing. So I would rather let him rest during the short intervals than to entertain phonecalls or to solicit for new clients.

Gals, the purpose of replying to such comments here is not to argue nor to blame anyone here who have posted their threads and comments. I just want to support KH and stand up for him cos I know him to be a responsible n hardworking guy!
 
Hi Cooldevil,
Since like tis, do sms him and tell him how you feel about his attitude ok? Hope he will change for the better.

Hi Senior,
Heee...*waiting* :P
 
Hi Cheryl,
Will ur photos be uploaded in KH's website? I thought he will upload all his assignments into his own website, should be stated in ur agreement too..
happy.gif
 
Hi ling79,
He dun load all his assignments...website doesnt have such a big space...he chooses some to load i guess...
 
hi cheryl
of cos not answering all the calls fr the particular person lah... what i meant is if someone call u numerous time a day (she/her must sound yr urgent) will u call back at least once? I'm not saying KH must return every call..... i dun know did he return yr call promptly or 1-2days later...maybe u think it right for u to wait for 1-2days but not everyone thinks the same........ he can return call when he is on his way back when he keeps all his equipments and can relax.....
happy.gif
dun tel me if whole week or whole mth he got assignments then he never return yr call or sms, you are fine with it ..........

I'm in customer svs line ... to be professional and gain customer's trust, we have to do our best even we have some unreasonable customers ...

hi gin
No need, he still come in here once awhile to read
happy.gif
I have to be considerate mah, sekali he having assignment lei....dun wan to disturb him....

oh ya cheryl, u might get a good svs fr him but not eveyone does...I recommended him to one of my gfs, he was ok (I got a good feedback after her AD) but when they arrange to meet to collect their CD (cos this first CD Kh gave them cant be viewed so they make another arrangement to meet).... guess what he did?? he did not turn up, my gf and her hubby keep calling him and he never return call ...... neither did he call my gf to inform them he cant make it to the apptment
If u were my friend how you feel....will it be alright for u to waste a trip?

everyone can just give feedback in tis forum, it up to oneself whether he/she can accept his ways of doing things and do u trust him or not... like me even I heard alots of bad things abt him I still use him for my AD...But after my gf incident, I stop recommending his svs ....
 
Hi Ling79, on the invoice it did state tat he will upload my photos on his website. However, if he doesn't its ok for me. Will show u gals once my photos r ready by tonite!
happy.gif


Hi cooldevil, think your experience with him is pretty bad yah? Then in that case, better not recommend him to ur frens after the terrible experience. For me, he will return my call n sms the next day morning.
 
Hi Cooldevil,
To be frank, I recommended him to Cheryl too. Even though I heard alot of bad comments about him. To me, its really how he decided to cater to his customers. I will still recommend cos he did a good job on my ROM pics. And of cos I told my friends, no obligations...they muz be comfortable with him then sign with you. Hope u noe wat i mean.
happy.gif
So far he is very prompt with impt smses....I meant whenever I sms him on something bad i heard in forum etc...
Im not sure why he reacted that way towards other customers of his...but I am still having him.
Anyway I also from customer service line. So we are fellow 'retailers' perhaps. :P To me, customer service is very impt. If your package is super ex, but you had wonderful service, I dun mind hiring...so I guess u r the same ba..
 
cheryl
No lah that's why I recommend him to my friend lor...who know this kind of thing will happen and I very pai say..... although he aso did not reply to some of my sms (got to sms again and again)and a few hipcups but still ok lor, anyway, on my AD he done a gd job ....

that's why i wan him to improve on his svs nia.... it good for him ...maybe he doesnt realise his mistakes mah..... it's a pity, he is good in taking photos and at the same time providing some "Bad Svs" he will not do well lor.....
 
hi gin
I understand what u mean... no worries...I meant well too I just hope he will improve his svs lor....

He used to reply me promptly that's why i still use him and aso gif him a chance to prove his skills and help him to get new customers.... I will tell my gfs what's happening and the way he do things lor ...if not if really something happen to them how am I goin to answer and they might blame me for not telling them in the 1st plc..... It's up to individual to accept it or not .....

His package is consider cheap compare to other photographer .... but did u ever wonder/ask why he never increase his price???? It might becos he got bad reputation liao and if the increase his price no ones will go to him.......... so he got to build up his rapport with new and old customers even his package is cheap.......
 
Hi cooldevil,
Perhaps lah...anyway guess we are all on the same track already. Just hope thay he will change ba....
 


Hi cooldevil, hope that he will polish up his after sales service n be more contactable. hahahha.... all of us meant well for him. So hope he will improve on his bad points lor.
