Jauh amet?? N Free????

Well, dr awal persiapan, vendor inilah yang paling fix dan sudah pasti. Karena ownernya adalah Dee's husband. (who is Dee? Read this)  Jadi, sedari awal Mr. sudah dibilangin bahwa mereka yang akan jd our vendor untuk foto dan video include our pre wedding pics. That's why it is free. 

Ak sempet yang mikir ribet juga ya krn kan ini didatangin dari Bali, mikirin juga gimana ini dan itu nya. Trz pengennya bisa ada same day edit tadinya, tp jd ga bisa. Mendekati hari H, ak uda cuek aja sih. Yang penting ada. That's all. wkwkwk.

Untuk prewedding session uda pernah kubahas juga disini. 

For our D-day, fotografernya 3 flew dari Bali kesini, untuk akomodasi kita bener2 ga siapin buat mereka. All from our bro in law. We just need to provide the driver n car aja buat mereka.

Overall, ak puas2 aja dengan hasilnya. Sedikit anti mainstream karena gaya shoot mereka tipe nya beda sekali dengan "standard" kebanyakan di Jakarta. . hehehe.. Tipe foto mereka adalah candid and krn di Bali mostly klien mereka adalah bule jadi simple yet capture the right moment jd gaya andalan mereka. However, klo di Jakarta sepertinya bound by the "tradition" here jadi sedikit kurang pas rasanya. Trz ak merasa kurang byk fotonya yg candid krn keharusan untuk foto2 yang diatur..

Basically, ak prefer mingling and blending with the guests, tapi kita tu seperti diatur or "keadaan" pada umumnya dimana bride n groom hrs ada di stage saat games, hrs foto dengan grup A, B, C dll diatas stage. Jadi walaupun kita punya fotografer tim yang cocok ma gaya ku and Mr. A, tapi situasi tidak mendukung. >.< 

Tapi hasilnya masih oke koq. Ak cm menyayangkan moment yg  ditangkap kamera tu bukan tipe yang ak mau krn kondisi2 tertentu itu, ^^

So, if you wanna have a wedding outdoor or in Bali boleh contact vendor ini! 

Spoiler pictures down here.. =P

PreWedding- It's a wrap!

Yes, it's a wrap! Glad we've come out to this already.

It was on April 29,2015 night that we flew to Bali. We had to take off days from our work place for this moment. The next morning, I have to choose the wedding gowns there. But I decided that I dun want to wear a wedding gown for our prewed pictures. The reason is only one I want to be a one day bride only. ^^ That day, we had to choose which album that we want and the size for the canvas later on. The PhotoFactoryBali has several types of albums. You can see it here. We chose white  E-Series Albums type. However, we just knew that we will get 2 albums (grey and white) when we got to choose the photos. However, we can't decide the canvas size yet because we are still confuse what to do with that after the wedding day *grin*

The fun fact is we get this all for free because it is belong to Mr. A sis and bro in law' We are grateful for this. Really are........

Okay, the following day was our photo shoot time. Our venue is Pura Ulun Danu, Kebun Raya Bedugul and Pantai Batu Bolong. It was my request to have a greenery view, a Pura and beach view. Our concept is just casual and natural. So our pictures mostly look away from camera. 

From Pura Ulun Danu, we almost changed direction to Tanah Lot because of the weather. We were chased by the dark cloud. Luckily, we still able to shoot as the schedule, thanks to the photographer instinct and our good karma still bless us ^^.  It was a wonderful day! Both of us hardly get a good pictures usually and for Mr. A takes picture always needs permission. But that day, we took 500+ pictures and all smiles. We got to get bored looking at each other all day n running out of topic to discuss to get the natural pose. *LOL* Here are some of the pictures.

We got the raw files the next day and be able to choose 50 pictures for the albums in the evening. Because photofactorybali is an international based photography, they are used to finish everything fast. Actually, our albums can finish in two days however, we had to get back to Jakarta by Monday. We request to send our albums together with my wedding gown from there on August. So, I just can't wait! 

Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.

Pre Wedding Teaser

I can't wait!!!! *lol* Like I have ever mentioned when I started to write about my preparation that cute pre-wedding is in my list about marriage. So, here we are.. Mr. A and me will have our pre-wedding next week! 

In here I wrote that we didn't choose any vendor for photography from the hotel because we choose from Bali. Our photography is Photo Factory Bali The reason we use this photography simply because the owner has related to Mr. A aka. his sister and brother in law's. So, we are really thankful for this. 

However, we have to go to Bali to have our pre-wedding shoots. The problem is time. Both of us are working and in very different field. I am working in education field which means I don't have what we call annual leave permissions but my holidays are the same with the students terms break schedule. So, we have to match it our free time to mostly my free time. Previously, we chose to have in on mid March. However, at that time, I have a recollection session before my baptism and I had to go to Puncak. Mr. A didn't want to fly to Bali on weekdays. So, we postpone until the next long weekend. We can't do it on June on my next break also because we will have our lessons at church and I might have to go to Solo. So, we decided that May will be perfect time. 

Last week, we got the information about the places and what we will need for our photo shoots next week and last weekend we went to shop what we need to wear. Well, mostly it was Mr. A who shops because I have prepared mine little by little since previous weeks. Luckily, I also have lots of great friends who help me with the dresses. There are stuffs that I ordered also months before for the details I wanna have in our shoots. Here they are. 

I love greens so I request @fun_ocraft to make this for me. lovely!

We got our plane tickets already and things we need. We just have to wait..and as for me.. DIET! hehehe. I did my mayo diet on February coz I thought will have the photo shoot on March and for the past few weeks, I ate a lot!. So, I do a light diet since early this week. 

Oh, one more thing, aside from the excitement for a short gate away, I also feel worry about the shoots itself. Both of us are not the type that lovable on camera. *ups* especially Mr. A. Take pictures with him were always a struggle.This pre-wedding pictures also will only outdoors since he doesn't like the formal style. So, I hope, I wish, I pray for that both of us will enjoy it and all is well. :)
