Keeli + Avinash | Pre-Wedding @ Frasers Hill, Malaysia

Posted on 04-20-2009 under Indian Weddings, Preweddings

Hi everyone… yes, I know it has been a month since I’ve updated my blog… I’ve been so busy travelling both within Malaysia as well as overseas. In fact, next week, I will be traveling again… this time to Chiengmai, Thailand, for a pre-wedding photoshoot.

Anyway, here’s one of my recent pre-wedding photography sessions to share with you all. Not only is Frasers Hill a well-loved holiday location in Malaysia, but it is also an increasingly popular destination for pre-wedding photography.

Whilst there to photograph Keeli and Avinash’s pre-wedding on a week day, we bumped into two other groups of photographers on various shoots!

The cool refreshing climate up there is a welcome change for wedding couples all decked out in their resplendent attire… gives new meaning to the happy term ‘no sweat’!

Despite a slight drizzle, the weather was lovely… cool, fresh air, and just the right amount of sunshine… We spent some time shooting at the park, a few colonial bungalows, and the golf resort… plus some Bollywood style shots as well. The sporting couple were attired in the customary white wedding gown, traditional Indian garments ie sari and kurta, and evening wear.

Hope you enjoy viewing the photos!

Daran & Teepa | Indian Wedding

Posted on 02-10-2009 under Indian Weddings

I love Indian weddings! They are just so full of colour, sights, and sounds… and offer a wedding photographer like me so many wonderful photographic opportunities.

Anyway, I’ve wanted to shoot an authentic Indian wedding for such a long time, as I’ve always enjoyed seeing such vibrant colours, feeling the pulsating beat of the drums, hearing the resounding blare of the trumpets, and most importantly, feeling the energy and warmth of the close-knit family relations within the Indian community.

2009 has been a really good year for me so far, and I’m truly blessed and thankful as the list of things that I’ve desired to do seem to be coming true one after the other.

Now, come with me to this feast of colour at Daran & Teepa’s wedding. I hope it will delight your eyes.

Donít forget to view the wedding slideshow. It may take some time to load but believe me, itís worth waiting for! The song for the slideshow has been specially requested for by the bride and groom.
