I am sure by now most of you know I am living in Singapore for the next year with my fiance, Jason. It has been an easy adjustment to the heat, food, and culture but what I have been missing the most is my work and trying very hard not to be referred to as a tai-tai, which in Singapore is a housewife. I have been loving photographing all of our adventures and places we visit but have truly been missing photographing beautiful brides and people!
However, this last week, I had an amazing opportunity to capture a pre-bridal shoot in Singapore with Yu Hsin of TinyDot Photography. I emailed Yu Hsin before I got to Singapore because I found his work to be really engaging and real. It was even more inspiring to shoot with him, he has a very artistic and methodical way about his shooting style and the way he approaches his subjects. If you are on Facebook HERE are some of his shots from the day.
I hope to work with him more while I'm here!
You might ask what a pre-bridal shoot is, since I asked the same thing! It is a 6 hour shoot where the bride gets in her dress with full hair and makeup done and goes around the city with the groom and takes photographs! They also do one to two outfit changes! Joan and Julius will be getting married in May and they were my first ever pre-bridal shoot and were surprised to find out that I photographed weddings in the states and had never done one of these before. I told them I didn't think the American bride would go for it, because of everything that goes into it and having your groom see you before the big day in the dress! But hey if any of my brides are up for it let me know! :)
Thank you Yu Hsin, Julius and Joan for letting me come along and shoot with you guys! Here are some of my favorites of the day:

I think this is a great idea b/c then the day of the wedding, you dont have to worry about the formal intimate photos with your husband - just enjoy yourself. Of course there are the photos with the wedding party and parents and such, so perhaps not. Anywho - great pics !!
