Would you believe me if I said I shot an entire pre-wedding session in Bali just using the Fujifilm Instax camera?

Yea, neither would I.

Two weekends ago Amelia, Leonard, Jinny and I were in Bali for Amelia and Leo’s pre-wedding session. Here are some ‘behind the scenes’ shots just to show how ‘interesting’ a pre-wedding session can get ;)

Barely 5 minutes into the session, Leo was already sweating buckets! The towel became his bestfriend for the next two days. And Amelia was proof that women don’t sweat, we glow ;p

That ‘Korean tourist’ you see on the left there? That’s Jinny, Amelia’s bestfriend who also became the professional sweat wiper (thanks!), dress holder, bag carrier throughout the trip. Poor girl got conned. Hahahah!

Leo & Amelia together with their instant Balinese family :p

While I was taking some test shots, Leo nearly got humped by a monkey. At least someone was getting some action :p And no monkey was hurt throughout. Seriously.

“What?!? McDonalds when we’re in Bali?!?!”. A short lunch break in the afternoon called for a quick lunch :p

Heeeheeeheeee…

The trip was planned around the fact that it was right before the peak period and I had envisioned the temples to be half empty with plenty of space to work with. Little did I know that weekend was part of the time that Balinese celebrated the Galungan festival and that weekend was the finale of it which is the Kuningan festival. Which meant that the temples were PACKED not only with tourists but also devotees 0.o

Yes, our whole session at both Uluwatu and Tanah Lot were shot with tons of people surrounding us. It was actually quite funny cos Amelia was the centre of attention, with people wanting to take shots with her. I should’ve charged them :p How often do you see a bride in a full gown at a temple during the festivals right? ;) Thanks for being such troopers you two!

A post of the actual shots will be up nearer to their wedding reception day :)
