Vivien + Vincent (Beijing China Prewedding)

December 2, 2018

// Cool and Fun Prewedding Session in Beijing China //

Photographer: Andre

Beijing is the place where Vivien and Vincent met for the first time 8 years ago. Fate brought them together to meet during the holiday tour which both families joined. Although they had interactions during the tour, the little love sprouts emerged when they started talking via online after they are back in their home country Singapore and the rest is history. 8 years later, they were back to where it all started. This time accompanied by me and the two videographers from Highest Kites Weddings to capture their lovey-dovey moments while they walked down the memory lane before they officially tie the knot. Beijing is a special city with many different and interesting scenes. From the sand dunes, majestic Great Wall, to the dreamy flower garden that we randomly found.. Everything is undeniably awesome. Exploring Beijing with these bunch of cool people, we did it the millennial’s way, and surely it was so much fun!

Nicola + Corbin (Nusa Lembongan Island Beach Wedding)

// Island Beach Wedding at Sandy Bay Nusa Lembongan //

Just a week before their wedding day in Nusa Lembongan Bali, Corbin and Nicola were trapped in Mount Rinjani Lombok Indonesia along with hundreds of trekkers after a powerful 6.4 magnitude earthquake struck the tourist island. I didn’t know they were in Lombok until I saw their names came up on 9News Australia. I lost contact with them & was extremely worried about them as the whole Lombok was in chaos that time. But thankfully a few days before their D day they contacted me and told me they were safe.

2 days before their wedding, another earthquake happened in Bali & a tsunami warning was issued by the local government. Corbin and Nicola were already in Lembongan but we were still in Bali. We almost couldn’t make it because of the big rising tide of the sea. Luckily the weather calmed down the next day, so we successfully sailed to Lembongan to shoot their wedding. Amazingly their wedding day was blessed with a very beautiful sunny weather! A major contrast from the weather on previous days. As if nothing happened, the wedding was going very smoothly. All those terrifying incidents they experienced before were soon forgotten as everyone was enjoying and really had fun in the party! It was a proof that even the universe was on their side! This made it the most memorable wedding we documented this year.

“You are my favorite”, he said offhand.”Favorite what?” she wondered aloud. “Well, just that. My favorite eyes to look into, my favorite name to see appear on my phone, my favorite person to spend an afternoon with.. My favorite everything.”
