We simply love pre-wedding shoots! There are so many ideas to explore. We have been waiting for the right couple - someone who possesses high energy level, adventurous and yet leave everything else to us. Then Collin and Vivien came along and they are exactly the ones we were waiting for.
Collin and Vivien are a friendly and simple couple who enjoy common activities. After we got to know the couple, we realised 1) they love to play tennis and 2) they go to Pulau Ubin on a regular basis. You can find them on the island so often that you'll think they are Ubin's PR!
We travelled in a big group that day -- Collin, Vivien, 2 of their best friends (Yvonne and Jeffrey), a makeup artist, Jeremy and us. As we walked through Millenium Walk, we got countless stares from on-lookers. The couple were like movie stars with their very own camera crew. Haha!
Collin and Vivien were very pro "actors". They were so focused in playing tennis that we see beads of perspiration on their forehead appear on our LCDs very soon. They just continued to play for us to get all our shots and left everything else to us. We appreciate that kind of trust and confidence. It gave us the freedom to try new angles to craft their pre-wedding video.
The whole shoot went very smooth. We felt like a family and the shoot didn't feel like a job. It was much like having an outing together. Yvonne attended to the couple's and the working crew's needs. She brought us food and tissues. Jeffrey was a great volunteer-porter too. He carried the Collin and Vivien's stuff and our equipment too!
Finally the day ended with a toast of sparkling grape juice that the couple had brought along in their picnic basket. With the sun setting in the background, we couldn't ask for more. Jeremy has posted some of his spectacular photos on his blog too (http://www.jeremyfoo.blogspot.com/). We shall not reveal too much here before the wedding....
