He also showed his brilliant photography skills when he and his wife shared their own wedding photos from their three-month photography session/honeymoon across the world last year.

The man reportedly claimed that a designer dress priced between 4,000 Malaysian Ringgit ($1,000) to 15,000 ringgit ($3,800) is a must-have to pull off good pre-wedding photos.

Challenged by the man’s assertions, Keow immediately set out to prove that a good photographer — not an expensive dress — is what makes the photoshoot.

To prove his point, Keow and his wife, Marta, purchased a pair of inexpensive dresses at a shop in Kuala Lumpur for just 80 ringgit ($20).

The couple then traveled to the scenic Cameron Highlands, where he took photos of his wife wearing the cheap dresses just as the sun was rising.
