Its such a beautiful season… and New York’s awesome this time of the year, with the whole of Central Park awashed with rich hues of gold, red and brown. We were very happy to have Maira for hair and make-up and she’s extremely helpful too, navigating traffic in Manhattan is not for the faint-hearted. Here’s a sneak from our recent shoot in New York.

This was the very same spot that Jason proposed to Wei Pei a few years back. He couldn’t have picked a better spot! : ) The light was special and I loved how Wei Pei’s eyes are affixed on him.

Dear friends,

Our studio will be closed from 26 Oct – 8 Nov as we will be away for a shoot in New York. We can still be reached by emails. Its been a very busy month and have hardly been posting.  Will certainly write more often in time to come and hope to show some images from the upcoming shoot.

We were very excited to be featured in an article in the Straits Times on 6 Oct 2009, Tuesday. It writes about the growing trend of couples here having their photos taken abroad and one of our couple, Jeffrey & Jaslyn, was featured in the article (and also their images!)  : )  Jeffrey and Jaslyn was our couple for the New Zealand shoot in August this year. You may find more images from that shoot some posts back.

Its a blessing to be shooting in Paris again and what beautiful weather we had. Here are some of my favourites from this shoot. Can’t wait for the next shoot in Europe. It’ll be Rome in December with room for either Paris or other cities in Italy. Due to the peak travel season, we will be closing the December (Europe) openings by 9 October.

What a journey I had with this couple… We started our first shoot in New Zealand then to Paris and its rounded off with a beautiful wedding in Bali. The day started off quite intensely with lots of sun and splashing around. The setting is just perfect; the sea, the breeze, the sun and the sound of waves crashing beneath the cliffs. The wedding planner behind all these is none other than Jonathan of Wedding Acts.

A man of few words but Daryl’s vows to Sushi were so touching… one of the best I’ve heard!

This is a first for me, bridesmaids throwing away their bouquets but what a way to do it!

This is a funny one. Noticed this guy ‘inspecting’ the wedding cake. (its a real cake btw)

The breeze blew the ashes and soot inland, its funny to see everyone shielding themselves and covering the glasses..

The party continued to the pools and with alcohol flowing freely for the night, you’d expect some really cool pictures. Here’s what I can show you only. This is a wedding I’ll never forget.

I’ve just returned from NZ and its been a priviledge to shoot there for the 2nd time this year and we’ve got some good stuff this time, even in winter : ) On some occassions, the temperature dipped below zero, super kudos to Jaslyn for braving it all for the shoot. I’d say its worth all the goose bumps : )

This is the best sunrise I’ve ever photographed and I’m elated that we’ve gotten it. The colours are really wicked isn’t it?

JL and Sherine tied the knot in his hometown, Bourg-les-Valence, about 1 hour south of Lyon. The weather was great, so were the food, wine and company : )

Love the oriental touch of the wedding favours which were all hand-made and brought over by Sherine’s sister-in-law. Wo.. Heard from JL that their lunch reception is at a 3-Michelin-star restaurant. Cool!! Even more exciting when I was invited to their kitchen to catch them in action. We’d like to thank JL & Sherine for giving us this opportunity to savour the exquisite cuisine and fine service.

The day continues back home with more food and lots of local wine. JL’s dad was very good at “pushing” his Clairettes, ensuring glasses were always full.

Dear friends, we have completed our shoot of 3 couples in Paris together with the hair & make-up maestro again, TG Goh. The gowns (from Tan Yoong, Dang Bridal and Kai Bridal) and make-up by TG really sent heads turning throughout Paris and were always accompanied by congratulations in all languages.  The shoots went well and the well-wishes made it even more romantic.

Parisians celebrate love. You’ll see couples, young and old, kissing everywhere and we even engaged in kissing ‘competitions’ with them occassionally : )

We had a great time and we’d like to thank all our couples for putting in so much effort and your new shoes to the test, haha.. and we are looking forward to our next shoot in Paris in September.
