We had a lot of laugh when we shot Har and Nia’s pre-wed photos, ^_^ A number of our Indio friends were also there participating, so no wonder it wasn’t even close to feeling like work. ^_^
The wedding day, though more serious, wasn’t that much different. It felt like shooting photos of your friends, rather than carrying out a project for clients. A breeze. ^_^ I wish all of our projects were like this one. Well, a person can hope, right? ^_^

Big thanks to Danny Ahadi, for lending us his exotic Mini for this photoshoot. The car is amazingly beautiful, though its “cuteness” made it difficult for me to find the perfect angle,

This one was long overdue, ^_^
Peter and Yenny have been quite famous among our fans for their pre-wedding pictures taken last year, which summed up fun and romantic in one album. So it’s no surprise that people had been wanting to see their wedding pics uploaded.
Just like the pre-wedding sessions, the wedding day was filled with laughters, and funny faces (see the church couple shot with the funny faces, ^_^). All in all, the pictures were my reward for the very long and tiring day.
Cheers,

It had been more than a decade since I last visited Surabaya, and Surabaya stopped at nothing to surprise ^_^ To say the least, I was dumbfounded, not realizing Surabaya is the 2nd largest city in Indonesia. Huge malls, luxurious housings, tall buildings, good food, and yes, crazy traffic jams, lined up in front of me.
But, I probably would’ve never visited Surabaya, if not for Rudy and Yaya’s wedding. In fact, even if we hadn’t been asked to cover their wedding, we would’ve flown in anyway. As I really really wanted to see where the two got their kindness, sense of humility, and warmth.
And it’s so apparent. From daybreak till close to midnight (yes, you read right), not once we were treated as vendors. The two families were so nice and welcoming that I truly felt sad the day had to end.
Yaya is now several months into her pregnancy. In 20-something years, he/she will be getting married. And there’ll be a young wedding photographer who’ll share the same experience as I did. I can only wish I can be there as well.
Cheers,

What makes a good person? Their background? Appearance? Behavior ? Words they utter? Actions they take?
I don’t normally go on a “fun” shooting trip, as the weekly photography projects as they are now, are already taking up so much of my time. But when Ron (one of our all time fave clients, ^_^) asked me to come along on this session, I was in need of a break, so I went.
I was so glad I said yes to Ron. I now know what makes a good person to photographers: a couple that’s (even though you just met) so friendly and nice that you’d have so much fun photographing them.
Andrian and Yuwi: thanks for letting me come along.

The world is getting smaller and smaller.^_^ Mike came to us because her friend, Inge, had a blast when we took her family picture. But little did I know that Mike’s husband was living in the same apartment as my pool buddy from years back. No wonder the guy looked so darn familiar, ^_^
And that just made the wet and gloomy morning so much better. Though the sun decided to hide for the most part of our photo session that we had to photoshop some “brightness” into our pictures. But the smiles in all the pictures? They were original, ^_^

Although we were approaching the end of the wedding season, I was really really looking forward to this wedding. Ronald and Diana had become more than *just* clients to us , they now were a part of our extended Indio family, ^_^ So the day went so smooth; the families were so nice to us, the friends as well.
(Heck, even the dog, whom I hadn’t met before, was nice, ^_^) Hence, big smiles and laughter filled the day, and some happy tears (yes Ron, I meant you, ^_^). All in all, what a way to book-end the wedding season. See you around guys. Cheers
