I can’t believe it’s been more than 2 months from the last time I blogged. Oh well, it’s not new I guess how terrible blogger I am :D

I am just back from the Indonesian trip where I wasn’t there only to shoot weddings but I was so fortunate to tag along my church team to go a mission trip to several places in Eastern Indonesian. I hope you can check it out some of my sneak peek images from my instagram :D And of course you can check it out my new venture in motion pictures under the BIG films, I will blog this matter on the separate post.

So there are all of my excuses of why I didn’t blog lately. In other words, my boss didn’t pay me to blog hahahah *lol* just kidding.

Desgi and Ngan first time came to my studio after the referrals from Robert + Cindy and also Felix + Dianne to enquire about my motion pictures expertise as they had booked the wedding photographer. However, they decided to book someone else :( When my assistant told me about it, I was kinda disappointed. You know when you are in the industry for too long, you are kinda know what kind of couples whom you wish to be booked. Desgi and Ngan are the couple whom I think is my ideal couple. Not only they are good looking :D but they also are not afraid to express themselves. They are perfect in my style :D Even though, they didn’t book me in but they still referred me several couples to my door. I didn’t know how to thank them for that :D

Anyway, for some reasons their wedding photographer happened to be unavailable, they straight away contacted me to check my availability. I don’t know whether it is coincidence or not but some reason I happened to be available on that day because of cancelled booking. So here we are now :D

I remember this could be the second time someone asked me what really I want to shoot in pre-wedding photo by clients. It’s like to remind me how I introduced the idea about “Life is Beautiful” concept that allows couples to express the real them in the natural way. Now when the question was asked, I smiled and replied back “I love street photography, that’s what I want to shoot the engagement session”.

The idea of what I want to shoot this engagement session for Desgi and Ngan is inspired from how I normally shoot candidly my kids using my iphone or via instagram. And how much I love the photos coming out from any family trip. Since I couldn’t have a long trip with them, so I just told them to let me to spend time with them for a few hours of their weekend. And there you go.

We took it easy about the timing and also traveled places. It started from the shoe shop, lunch in sushi train, walking trip from CBD to circular quay to catch up ferry, and Manly. So it’s not surprising to see Desgi and Ngan full of food around them, because Desgi is always hungry (Seriously).


Desgi confesses he is a shoe collector. So not only girl loves buying shoes right?

Then they relied on their iphone’s Good Food Guide app to look for what to eat for lunch.

Sushi train is the destination

Seriously this looks yummy especially when I was shooting.

Not sure you can see it, I could see how satisfied Desgi was after the meal from the way he sat :D

We missed the ferry to manly, so we were full around in circular quay for a bit

Of course they didn’t trust me to shoot a better look of them, so they relied on stranger and their phone camera… *lol*

Feeling proud with his new shoes, Des :P

“Hmm feeling a bit hungry now!” Desgi said.

“I thought we just had lunch” Ngan said

Finally they couldn’t resist not to miss the famous fish and chips in manly

Ben & Jerry was next for the dessert :D

We stopped by to have a quick snap after looking at cool lighting from the car garage in one of the apartment we passed by.

Check it out for more photos in my facebook page.

Phew, I successfully shot a prewedding session almost without posing, only to give a direction of where to go and to sit. I am happy :D Thanks guys for giving the opportunity to play and of course to get to know and have fun with both of you :D I know I am so looking forward working my sock out on your wedding day :D

See you guys soon!
