Photo Shooting Day!:
Finally the day we been waiting for is here!! The whole shoots took more than 12hrs, was VERY VERI tiring, whole body aching from hours of posing. But it was VERY VERY good and enjoyable experience! We are like friends, talkin n laughing, enjoying the nice view of taiwan. They r veri nice ppl, taking care of our every needs, even small details. It was over our budget bt after seeing the photos, we are like waaaaaaaaaaaa No Regrets! definitely worth the money =D

Feeling very excited when we woke up, we can't make it for our hotel breakfast as we need to reach the bridal place at 8am, so we hurry down to a cafe just at the corner where our hotel is, grab a sandwitch and red tea.

Dear doing his light makeup and stylo milo hair haha he din take pic of me cos he was SLEEPING when i was doing my makup .... power right? my sleeping god- he capable of sleeping in mrt while standing...

Hehe that's me doing my make up which took like 2 long hours, almost fall asleep a few times too haha, but the result is amazing hehe.

Once we got dressed up and make up done, we grab our stuff and head down to our first location in this 6 seater car which installed with a TV to keep us entertain thru out the journey.

But before that the driver drove us to the floral shop to buy some red rose to be use during the shoot, dear couldn't get those full hot red rose because it were sold out, but he got this close to pink color with a light gradient to white rose which is really really beautiful. We were really regret that we didn't keep the rose after the shoot, guess we were too tired to thought of that.

We finally reached our first stop at Mong Hu, a place with a really beautiful lake. we gota walk up the hill and the place was kinda wet. is not raining but they say cos is mountain area so alot of condensation..

The guy in white coat is our photographer call Ah Dou and the one in grey jacket is the assistant call Ah Ren. Both getting ready wif their gadget. i was reluntant to get down cos is was cold up in e mountain area and there is a slight drizzle.

Tada! assistant helping me my dress. this is the lake we want. there was a swing at the other side, but we din haf chance to take own pic cos it was a dangerous spot.everyone was busy wif me including dear. settle me down, make sure e gown spread out nicely la. the angle, lightning, hair, make sure i dun fall into the lake etc.. cos is near the edge of the stones.

Poor assistant on standby - he the Bao Ga Liao chap. carry gadgets la, my jacket, bear, shoes, clothes etc.. when the rocks or seats r dirty, he would use his hands n clothes to clean off for me. when i need to change, he set up the tent for me. buy food n drinks for us etc

he even gota TEST out EVERY rock and path b4 i take my next step. fell a few times to ensure our safety.. we feel so paisei tt day..

They took photos of the swing n it turn out VERY NICE! we picked quite a few jus on tt scene alone. bt if u r there, u will understand how challenging it was, wet floor, rocky path.. there were algae on the rocks so is very slippery.

Here’s our great and funny photographer, they call him Ah Dou, always make us laugh one cos he kept on saying “Yao Shin Fu Wor” , “Smilllllee” haha cannot tahan, but all this funny words helps us relax alot during the shoot. Great to have him as our photographer haha.

More photos of the place

2nd venue - LingJiao, a place with railway track and a secret location where our waterfall is!. all are request by us. And that's our photographer Ah Dou in the photo..

We both want a retro feel, so we choose to have our photos taken at a railway tack, the train station is still in operation btw.

The make up artist doing some retouch up on my face cos I ate all the lip gloss again haha time to reapply

After we took a few shots along the railway sides, we then move off to the waterfall secret location which we need to walk up and down many flight of stairs.

Dear helped me to carry the train, this will give u a good idea of how wet the floor is.. haha amazing thing the photos did not show much of the dirt. the camera is sensitive to white , tts wad he says

We are finally here our big waterfall! we asked for waterfall cos we both love nature so he took us to this very very ulu place, is the photographer self discovered place. he said nt many ppl noe this place as is not easy to go in. had to go through bushes and climb up and down.. lucky im prepared wif flat shoes.

Assistant kana scolding again from photographer.. poor chap, Ah Ren is very strict to him during the whole shoot, guess it's part of the learning process I think.

After our tough but wonderful photoshoot at the waterfall, we move back up to the train track area to take more shots on our 3rd outfit. That's our photographer reading some sign.

Train come liao! he suddenly tell us to run so to make it like we are chasing after the train.. the ppl inside are all looking at us like some freak haha

Walked down to another river part to take pic. he told us this place is abit "dirty" bt we dun feel anitin there le..

Our light food prepared by the bridal studio.

We reach back to the studio in the late evening to change into our last indoor shot outfit hehe. Already very tired but still excited for the indoor shot keke.

Here's me in my last sexy and cool black gown and have my makeup and hair redo to fit to the dress.

Here’s my stylo milo wild hairstyle, really suit the dress alot. Good job to the make up artist. As you notice there are aren’t alot of photos or info thru out this entries, reason been we like to keep the level of surprise as much as possible till we show you guys our final photos, soooo please bear with us for the time being kekeke.

After our photoshoot, we head back to Xi Men Ding to try out this very interesting place call the Modern Toilet. Lets hope they don't sell shitty food.
