Hi! shirsweetiepie, Thanks for your enquiry. I have sent the pricelist to you already. Hope that I do not get a bounced mail from your hotmail account as the capacity is small to send images over.
 
Hope you received it this time Shir. I actually sent it again to you using reply. Have a great weekend!

Hi! Joan,

Thanks for your enquiry. I have already sent my price list for your already. Do feel free to call me at 7000 008 0088 or page me at 9500 0088 for an appointment or any clarifications.
 
Hi! all,

Due to the implementation of higher GST next year, there shall be a revision in pricing as of 1 January 2003 for all customers booking their packages as of 1st September 2002 for next year's wedding. Those who booked before 1st September 2002 will still be entitled to the current pricing or those having their wedding this year. The increase is necessary as print costs and other materials will be increased and I have already discussed and worked out the new pricing with my vendors for next year for all materials. I sincerely regret the inconvenience.
 
This is an article by: Harold M. Merklinger extracted from

for those who still have doubts about the technology in digital pictures. Here it goes.

The Canon D60
Well, I have yet to do extensive testing with the D60, but I can say that D60 8X10" prints, and indeed the one D60 11 X 16.5"print I have done so far, are better than any previous 8X10" or larger print I have made from 35 mm colour, no matter how printed. In fact, I would say that the 11X16.5" print is pretty close to similar-sized images printed conventionally (or digitally) from 645 format negatives. In simpler words, I believe the 6 MP D60 is superior to 35 mm colour film–not just the equal. A possible exception might be a really good print from a Kodachrome slide — but I can't claim to have any that are in fact better. To test the issue further, I also converted one of the images to black and white and printed it at 8X10 inches. The eye tends to be more demanding of resolution in black and white prints than it is for colour. Colour contrast helps a lot with the conveyance of information. The black and white print looks fine on sharpness grounds, though it still lacks something — I’m not sure what — that a true black and white image would have. I did learn that I should have converted the file to 48-bits per pixel prior to the simulated filtering and conversion to black and white. My b&w image file has gaps in the histogram of gray levels. That’s certainly part of what I am seeing as deficient.

I have never been sure what it is that makes conventional colour prints from medium format (and larger) better than 35 mm images. With black and white I can fool people into selecting the wrong print when shown two 8X10" images from different formats and asking them to select the 35 mm image vice the medium or large format version. Not so with colour. The medium (or larger) format product has always been easy to spot. Shading is smoother, detail is ‘effortless’, and of course, the gain is tighter for the larger format.

Well, the smooth gradation and absence of grain or noise in the D60 images gives the D60 images a medium-format-like appearance. And I think the nature of the resolution, if not absolute resolution itself, helps these D60 images look more like 645 format than 35 mm.

Hi hilarion

Do you do photoshoot at places like Bintan/Tioman/Langkawi? if so, what are the charges like inclusive of the hotel stay, transport, make-up artist etc?

Thanks!
 
Hi! Ilyena, I just returned from Langkawi about 3 days ago and have done shots at The Datai and along the way to The Datai and Andaman. I have also done shots many times at Bintan. Other locations are availabe upon request. For other exclusive destinations, please enquire. You may like to contact me or Jasmine who shall be glad to be of assistance to you. Do feel free to call her at 9669-1076 or myself at 7000 008 0088.
 
hi

thanks for the info! do you have a studio? would like to pop by one of these days to look at your portfolio. Do you allow that?
 
We just finished our wedding celebration and would just write to thank Hilarion for being our photographer and is so flexible and understanding. His digital pictures are great and certainly journalistic and creative. We gave him the full rights to do what he likes and turned out very creative. His digital is better than some film prints I had seen.
 
Hi hil,

just to check with you, how to adjust the photo to print big size.

what happen was my friend actually took my photos which i downloaded on my website and printed 2 big pieces of photo. think it's about 1 metre by 1. something metre.

the photo turn out to be not very clear. think the resolution not high enough. is there any way to make it look clearer. cos the photos that i downloaded is direct form the cd given to me.
 
It has to be first generation. You can use Genuine Fractal to interpolate but nothing is like original file size.
 
For ROMers, there is a special offer for all SB card members valid until December 2002. Do go to the promotional site for more information.
 
Hi all,

Regards,
Chin Leng.
 
We have engaged Hilarion's service for actual day photography and we are indeed a very satified customer in terms of punctuallity and services. My guests were all thoroughly impressed by the fact that they were able to see my day photographs by the evening. He was "hilarious" and that really accounts for his name. Keep up the good work Hil and continue your very excellent service.
 
Thanks Sam & Fiona for your compliments. You both were really loads of fun not forgetting your "jia meis" and "siong tis". Have great fun and enjoy your honeymoon. Hope that your all new Nikon 5700 will be doing justice.
 
Hi Hilarion,

Although you were down with a bad sore throat on our wedding on 22 September 2002, you still display a great deal of professionalism. Thanks for all the great pictures & fun that you have brought to our wedding. We are indeed happy to have you as a friend and keep in touch.

Cheers,
Nigel & Nancy
 
Hi Hilarion,

Seeking your advice... how does the quality of digital pictures converted to B&W compare with those taken on traditional B&W film?
 
Well, the quality is excellent. Those taken on B/W film unless it is manually printed in the darkroom, it may be different. However, if they are sent out to the lab, they are still scanned and produced digitally by the Frontier or the Noritsu machines (the most common lab machines). Do feel free to call me if you want to see some of my portfolio that I had taken overseas.
 
Hilarion
Can I check with u if u r available on 8th & 9th Dec this year. We r having our actual day on 8th (Sunday) and dinner the following day. (9th)
Thanks
 
Hi! Deedee, So sorry, I am not available as I have already been booked.
 
Due to a postponement of a booking on 15th December 2002, I shall still be available for that date.
 
hi hil,

just wanted to drop a message to say a big thank u for ur help n service during our wedding on 14 sept. our guests were so surprised to see our actual days photos ready by the evening n they spent most of their time pouring over the spontaneous n journalistic photos that u took. thanks too for delivering the remaining photos to us the next day. our parents too could hardly believe that the photos were taken using digital camera. the quality of the photos u take hv converted us fr analogue photographers to digital newbies. thanks for answering our numerous questions abt digital photography.
 
Hi! Och, Thanks for the compliments. It has certainly been a pleasure to be of service to you and am glad that you appreciate the pics that were taken. Don't forget to make addditonal copies of the original CD though as you have been give the full rights to make additional copies.
 
Hi! Jojo, thanks for your enquiry. For my updated price list, please send your mail to [email protected] for an automated list. So sorry about that as I am sending this out from my PDA.
 
Hi Hilarion

I saw the messages above and would like to enquire the following:

1. Can I have acopy of your price list - can you please send it to [email protected] Thanks! My wedding is on 21 March 2003, are you booked on that day next year yet?

2. I saw that you are planning a trip in Jan, my original photo shoot is in Jan too, so i am thinking if your trip is not a long trip, but a short trip to nearby places I will be v. keen...

3. Lastly, i saw some posting above that you manage to collate the actual day pics by banquet in the evening - does that entail extra charges? Can you let me know cuz I am loking for someone who can manage that so I ve something diff to sow at the wedding... please advise..

Where can I see your portfolio - to share with my hubby? Looking forward to hearing from you soon..

Many thanks
Veil
 
Hi! Veil, Thanks for your enquiry and I have emailed the price list to you already. As for turn around time, all my clients get their photos in the album by the evening and there is no extra charge for express and white borders as well. As for the trip, do feel free to call me at 7000 008 0088 or Jasmine Tiong at 9669 1076.
 
Dear all,

For those who have already fixed your dates for next year's wedding, do book early especially on the auspicious dates, as bookings for next year are certainly coming in fast up to January 2004. I must apologise to the many who had written to me about the 20th September 2003. This is a really hot date and for those intending to get married on that day (or any other auspicious dates), do book your choice photographer and make-up artist fast. I am sure the photographer's listing in SB should be able to help you get your choice professional photographer.
