nak semua boleh tak? HAHA. masa my engagement, ralat gile cuz my photographer suke tangkap candid moments. and my bad sebab tak bincang dengan dia about what poses there should be. gambar with my mum and mother in law pon takda. GASP. caya tak? haih..pastikan tak silap!!

ikot list ni, rasa nak semua je! pengantin boleh pegang checklist tak . haha

good info. sometimes its good to have photo checklist for reference, but it'd be better if the photographer to shoot candid moments jugak. yg posing2 ni better leave it to them je..

maybe kita just cakap je nak gambar family atas pelamin and few shots wajib. the rest just leave it to them and pengantin pun memainkan peranan yg penting jugak. some pengantin malu2 kucing, tu yang gambar jadi kaku. just be natural and act as if photogs arent there.

if possible before the wedding u dah save some pics taken from internet n letak dalam phone or ipod and show to yr photogs and say u want yr pictures to be something like the pic :)

nahwal: u bley bincang dgn family u.. utk jadi u punye 'organizer'

or u blh minta pengapit u pegang checklist

or

u bley jumpa jurugambar yg berkenaan dan berbincang

tak semestinya kita poses... kadang2 gambar berkeaan perlu.. sbg kenangan yg abadi... :)


dell: kadang2 kita tertinggal sbb kita pengantin tak boleh ckp apa2 masa jadi raja sehari... jd kita mesthi / make sure yg jurugambar itu tahu apa yg dia nak amik...

cuz i dah tgk previous2 wedding.. ada sesetengah tue... gambar dgn keluarga family phun tak dhe...

so up to u...
i juz for our reference... :) besh of luck dear
