“Mountain, Forest and Beach Prewedding”
“I’m in love with you and your entire being. Your hands and the way they hold mine. Your eyes and the way they smile at mine. Your lips and the way they fit with mine. Everything about you. And it’s all mine.”

The magnificent landscapes of Lombok really stole our hearts. Ola, Todi and us surely were so excited while exploring part of the island for 3 days. From hills, ocean, caves and waterfalls, they all looked so splendid not only in pictures but in real life too.
It definitely needed a lot of effort to get to these places but it was definitely worth it. We walked under the scorching sun, we rode a tiny fisherman’s boat. But the hardest, scariest and the most unforgettable one was when we tried to get to the bat cave. It was pretty horror when we had to walk while crouching down on the ground that was full with millions of cockroaches (!!!), ants, worms & other insects too. Not to mention we went through all that in complete pitch black. Our guide said there were some snakes too and we saw one. Then we walked through thousands of bats flying and screeching on top of us until we finally saw THE LIGHT. After the shoot we had to climb a tall and vertical bamboo stairs to get out of the cave. But guess what, the pictures we took there became our favorites!
We were really thankful to Ola & Todi who brought us to Lombok for some real adventures. They had been so nice and kind to us, and more importantly they didn’t complain despite the challenging situations, we love that! Glad that we could share all the thrills together and got back home safe & packed with interesting stories we will always remember.
“Javanese Traditional Wedding of Mixed Nationalities in Bali”
Photographer: Andre
Irna & Matteo, two free souls who are destined to be together. Irna is from Indonesia, Matteo is from Italy. When you’re around this couple, there’s always so much laughter. They are seriously so fun & carefree. The love of travelling and wanderlust had brought them meet each other in Russia…a foreign land far far away from their home countries. From a casual chat when they were at the Red Square Moscow, they became travel buddies soon after. They also traveled to Kyrgyzstan together and they got more attracted to each other and fell in love since then. Their relationship became more solid as they continued exploring the world together and have many many adventures together.
Matteo proposed 3 times to Irna. The first one was very casual and just a random “Let’s get married” that caught Irna off guard so she replied with “Are you sure?”, Matteo replied “Yeah”, and Irna was like “No, I want a sapphire ring. But yes.”
The second one was on the rooftop with a beautiful sunset view in Bali. This time was a bit more romantic, Matteo asked with a classic “Will you marry me?” in an awkward way and Irna just laughed because it was too funny but she still said “Yes”.
And finally, for the third time Matteo proposed to Irna. This time with a ring in his hand, a sapphire ring that he purposely went to Myanmar to find. Irna told us that she asked for a ring not to be materialistic, but just to test him if he was really being serious, and he really did it. So that third proposal made Irna teared up with happiness.
When we asked what made them decide to get married, the answer is because they just want to live this life together, no other reasons..as simple as that. And I think THAT is the ultimate answer. Like seriously, what is more beautiful than wanting each other and to be together in life? That simple answer explains everything that really matters in a marriage, I love that.
“Singapore Family Session”
Photographer: Andre
Remember the maternity shoot I did a while back for the lovely Singaporean couple in Bali, where the baby inside the bump chose her own name? Click here to refresh your memory.
Last year I got to visit them in Singapore and did a family shoot for them with Kaylee as the main star. Yesterday Kaylee just turned ONE! We wish you to grow up to be an amazing girl and hope all your dreams come true!
Here is a collection of photos of them, when Kaylee was still tad bit smaller but already full of expressions. You can see her faces when she’s happy, bored, annoyed or when she cried with passion until she tired herself to sleep 😀
The most touching moment for me was when her mum, Jophia, was getting emotional when she breastfed baby Kaylee. And maybe because baby Kaylee could feel it, she then started crying too, so Jophia had to bring her inside their room to calm her down.
This was a story of a little family in their home full of heartwarming love.
