A love for the great outdoors was what gave groom Low Han Siong and bride Ashley Leong the idea to shoot at various open-air locations such as the zoo, Choa Chu Kang park and Pierce Reservoir. Despite the hot weather and a light drizzle, they managed to come back with a lovely set of pictures that showcases their good-natured personalities.
"We enjoyed the overall experience and have lovely photographs that captured the precious moments of the day. We don't take many photos together, so these are especially precious," says Ashley. The bride gives us more details here.
What is the concept behind your pre-wedding shoot?
We really love the outdoors and animals, so the zoo was one of our top picks. We also wanted to include some of the items Han Siong used to propose to me like Lego figurines and a dog key ring. We loved shooting at the reservoir despite the heat; we enjoy being surrounded by nature.
Tell us what it was like working with the crew?
It was fun working with them. They never once complained about the heat or having to lug heavy equipment around. Though we were uncomfortable in our bridal attire, they made it fun and stress-free and never pressured us to pose in positions we felt uncomfortable in.
What were some of the other challenges?
Mostly the heat and unpredictable weather. It was scorching one moment and raining the next. I was also struggling to move around in a restrictive mermaid gown. Luckily the chairs we brought along from Tiffany Chairs Rental proved to be handy, offering a comfortable resting spot whilst out in the fields.
Any funny behind-the-scenes moments?
We were at the zoo just before closing time and noticed that the animals were actually waiting outside their cages to be let in for the night. They couldn't wait to get off "work". It's funny how they are just like us, and couldn't wait for the work day to be over!
