Shorty and I were up by 7AM this past Saturday. I can’t even remember the last time we were up so early on a Saturday. We had a good reason to be up though…. to start a long day of wedding photo shoots. There were going to be 3 locations.
In the morning we would go to a studio to take pictures. In the afternoon to a park in TTDI and at night we ended up at Petaling Street. There are so many things to decide on when doing a pre-wedding shoot. First you have to pick a photographer, then a theme and then where you want to do it.
Well the first thing was easy. We picked One Way Ticket to do our photos, I’ll explain why I picked them in the next entry. The theme… well Shorty came up with that entirely so credit to her.
The last part though was the venue. Lots of my friends go overseas for their pre-wedding shoots to take pictures in beautiful locations all over the world. One thing Shorty and I always wanted to do though was to have our shoot in KL. Why KL?Because it’s the place we met, the place we spent the past 3 years of our lives in and the place where we will start our married life together.
Plus I always believed that a good photographer will always be able to find and bring out the beauty in any location you choose. So we did that.
It was a really tiring day and we took loads of pictures that day. At the end of it I figured that it was something I wouldn’t really wanna do again… but then again it’s something I’m glad I did.
Our official pictures are not out yet though. All these pictures I posted here were taken from my phone camera. When it does come out though, Shorty and I promised that we will look at the pictures together and we will share some of them up here for you guys
The photos are expected out end of this week so I guess you’ll only hear about that then. So until then… have a great week everyone.
Here’s from Tim and Aurdrey… haha.
You can read more about the behind the scenes of this shoot at Shorty’s blog.
Shorty and I just discovered this version of Christina Perri’s A Thousand Years and it’s beautiful. So beautiful that we’re thinking of using it for our wedding.
We were just talking yesterday when I told Shorty that like it or not, “our song” for the rest of our lives is going to be “A Thousand Years”, the soundtrack for the recent Twilight. The irony is that Shorty and I don’t like Twilight at all. Twilight actually still holds the record for the only movie that we ever walked out of the cinema of halfway through the movie. So much that when we first found out the song in our meme proposal video was from Twilight we were thinking of changing it. But we loved it so much that we decided to keep it.
And now… A Thousand Years will always be the song of Fatty and Shorty.
This week is only halfway through and it’s already been a pretty cool week for me. For the start of it, some of the Nuffies from the Nuffnang Hong Kong and Nuffnang Singapore office were down in KL for training. So I took them for dinner at where all hipsters go.
Publika.
I love getting to know all the Nuffies from all the different countries. They’re all similar in the way that the share the same culture but they’re different based on the different backgrounds they come from.
In this short week so far though I managed to see five pretty cool things. Here are the Top 4.
4) Superman Sticker
I saw this sticker on the back of Wilson from Milkadeal.com’s laptop. I thought it was especially cool when the laptop was turned on and the Apple logo lit up.
It wasn’t as cool though as what I saw on his girlfriend’s laptop which brings me to Number 3.
3) Minions!
This was on the back of Wilson’s girlfriend’s laptop. Her name is Huey Chin. Makes me wanna go… Ba ba ba ba… ba ba na na.
2) Man Utd Chair
If you watch football enough you would probably know what this is.
At Old Trafford, Alex Ferguson and some of the players often sit on this red Audi chair. When visiting Pierre’s house on Sunday she showed me this one that he had. It was signed by all the players in Man Utd.
Cool shit. Nobody dared to sit on it though. Some chairs are not meant for sitting.
1) Wedding Invitation Card
The number 1 cool thing I saw this week has got to be the first print of our wedding invitation card. Shorty and I didn’t want a grand wedding or anything. We wanted to a happy and colourful one so we opted for an UP-themed wedding (from Disney Pixar’s UP).
So we decided that our invitation card had to be along that theme too. So here it is.
