woohoo !!
that’s my first ‘look’ of the day.
18th april is our photo shoot ! 3 locations, 3 looks, 3 hair-dos !
it rained in the morning ! met him for mcd breakfast at jp ! quick bite & make our way to my dream wedding.
we got there at 10.30am, as instructed but the shop was closed !! waited for 5 mins and we call Ivy, our make up artist. no answer !! nerve-wracking few mins.. !! finally, Ivy arrived at 10.40am. she was caught in d mrt jam.
she got us settled down & its time for make up.
i was told to look thru the catalogs again to see what kinda make-up / hair i like or dislike.
erm.. honestly, i dont hv any idea !
we started chit-chatting and she goes ‘you look quite cute. how abt doing ur face & hair in those cute / princess look’
*shrug. fine with me. i’m easy going.
the make up / trying of gowns took abt 1hr45mins !
the 2nd gown is too loose & the auntie work magic on the dress.
we finally set off at abt 1pm, the sun is out ! hooray !
grab our stuff & climb into the huge van. selfish me occupied 2 seats. one for my butt, the other for ‘d rest of d gowns’
quick kervin ! find my camera in my bag and take a photo !!
hehe that’s how we hv these 2 precious photos.
*say hi to man in white – pumpkin – dashing !
look at those hair? its extension !! Ivy applied temp colour on my hair, turning my black hair into brown. look at my bimbo-eyelashes and perfect eye brown ! hehe the gown.. the gown is super tight. i couldnt breath normally. and last, i wore this princess-looking hairband !
1st location – blair street.
hehe ! those pose are kinda funny.
poor pumpkin, tux and all !
lotsa pple stare at us. along d way, some drivers horn, wave, say hello to us ! hehee
moving on to 2nd location – wilkie road
the driver pulled out a table, 2 chairs, bird cage, flowers & a portable changing room.
Ivy help me changed, and did my make up under a big tree !
this time round i have a veil, 3 hairbands (yes, 3!) AND a white gown. this time heavier den the first gown. the clip-on earring is super tight !!
throughout the photo shoot, i saw lotsa bugs making their way to my gown. these little creatures simply hop onto my gown. aargh !!
i freaked out when the photographer told me to sit down !! yes, i did it. wait for the photos..
next location – wikie road empty field.
the driver pulled out a ladder and tie a swing to the tree. ta-dah !! the uncle hold on to the swing while i sit !
next location – train track !
i asked our photographer.. can i wear my red shoes? see the train truck, there’s no way i can wear heels. he hesitated but agreed ! hhahaaa !!
we saw another couple at the train truck. erm… the groom seems a little old.
pit stop – mosque’s toilet.
i really need to ‘go’ and was told to use the mosque toilet. i’m like.. reallllyyy?
the nice pple at the mosque let us use their bathroom.
changed in the portable changing room aka tent. make up & hair-do.
next location – marina bay sands.
wow. the place is packed. kinda shy.
last shot is a kissing pose.
the end.
poor pumpkin, he don’t understand the photographer’s instruction. lotsa times, he seems lost & uncertain. somehow, i became his translator.
took a taxi home. brought fried bee hoon + fish slice bee hoon for myself. so hungry !! i hardly eat. no mood to eat..
got home & the wee family got excited ! this is how i look:
*there are at least 80 bobby pins in my hair !!
*the fake eyelashes are so long.. it touched my glasses !
that’s it !
40 mins in the bathroom !! took abt 10mins to remove my hair up, 20 mins of conditioning my hair .. the hairspray are crazy !
happy days ! wuv pumpkin ! (L)
