Ry + Curtis (Bali Elopement)

While most of the people are competing to throw big scale weddings, Ry took a completely opposite approach for her wedding with Curtis. A modest, private and nontraditional celebration with just the two of them was everything she needed. The day felt special even since the moments of preparation. Ry was doing her own make up, and while I captured those alone moments I couldn’t help to imagine the excitement in her heart. All that mix of happy feelings while getting dolled up to get married to the love of her life. Even the thought of it made my heart flutter.

Before the sunset, we headed to the beach where Ry and Curtis vowed one to another in a heartfelt wedding ceremony. The celebration continued with a romantic private dining in a beach cave. Decorated with lights, the cave looked so beautiful. The sound of the sea in front of them accompanied them and perfected the mood of the night. Their celebration ended with a tender wedding dance by the bonfire.

Private elopements like this have a special place in our hearts. It shows love in the simplest and purest form. It represents the very meaning of marriage itself, which is a sacred union of two people, without the need of showing off or being flashy. And as a photographer it surely is an honor to witness and be a part of such a private celebration of love between them.

Amelia + William (Bali Garden Wedding)

August 11, 2018

// A Dazzling Garden Wedding in Bali //

Photographer: Andre

We have been friends with Amelia since we were still living in Melbourne. She has always been a beautiful, kind and lovely lady even since back then, you can’t not love her persona. And that’s what happened to William as well, he fell in love with Amelia the first time he saw her. Yes, love at the first sight does exist in real life. And apparently not just the two of them who felt that chemistry. Based on their stories, even all the people around them..families and friends, including us, knew that they belong to each other the moment we saw them together. We are amazed by how they fit each other perfectly like puzzle pieces.

We believe that if something’s really meant to be, everything will fall into place nicely..effortlessly..magically. Just like how wonderful their wedding night was. We remember laughing so much while listening to personal stories and funny slideshows about them that their families & best friends shared during the dinner reception. Under thousands of fairy lights, surrounded by beautiful flowers, and filled with wines..everything was just perfect. That night we saw how much they love one another, and how much they are loved by all.

“A Pine Forest Fete in Mount Pancar”

Nothing can bring you a better mood than a good ol’ intimate forest wedding, like seriously. Especially a humble one like the wedding of Arthur & Selvia at Gunung Pancar Bogor. Everything about it just looked and felt so good. The moment we stepped into the forest, the fresh air welcomed us, stripping off whatever the stress we had away. The sound of chirping birds and rustling pine trees alongside with music from a band, playing beautifully as the background of people’s chatter and laughter during the cocktail hour.

As it was getting darker, the warm lights illuminated and elevated the whole dreamy ambience. The presence of food trucks stole some attention and it showed how much Selvia & Arthur wanted their wedding to be really casual and fun. The genuine smiles and merriment from all of us filled up the place. It’s all about having a good time after all. For the fairytale ending, we all lit up some sparklers accompanying the wedding couple’s first dance. After that, the music got louder, drinks got stronger, the party got harder as the night deepen. The rainfall afterwards officially ending the night telling us to rest with cheerful hearts.
