{pre wedding photo Prague} our latest couple from Shanghai China R&F

Our latest couple Rebecca and Frank hail from Shanghai, decided to have a photo session in Prague after traveling around Europe. Unbeknownst to Rebecca, Frank also had a surprise engagement ring – and what followed was a wedding proposal that was live streamed to the world.

Rebecca & Frank also had a bit of a dilemma, they waited to nearly the last minute (they are very busy & successful people) and not only did they wish to have a European pre wedding but they also needed to have the entire session edited, retouched and files sent within two weeks. Of course when money is not an issue anything is possible. The other issue, Frank wanted to share his surprise marriage proposal to friends and family from around the world. What follows is a wonderful autumn morning (minus the sun…sometimes we have bad luck with the weather here), two outfits (that red dress is amazing) and a surprise that caught Rebecca totally off guard.

Photo shoot locations: Prague Castle, St. Vitus, Castle Steps, Charles Bridge, Nove Mesto, Old Town Square, Astronomical Clock, Mala Strana, Riverside and the finale at the Charles Bridge.

Special thanks to the team for doing a kick ass job (Linda, Cary & Dorota).

gorgeous pre wedding in Prague D&L (Hong Kong)

Pre wedding photo Prague. The wonderful Daisy & Louis traveled over from Hong Kong to the Czech Republic to have their very special photo session in Prague. They also had a very small and sweet civil ceremony at The Old Town Hall in Prague where the two exchanged vows

As the summer months can get very hot and quite busy with tourists, we decided to take things easy and have a sunrise session starting at the incredible Prague Castle before they were to marry. The beautifully lit Prague Castle in the early am provided a quiet, magical scene that was straight out of a movie set – we simply had the castle gates and the gas lit streets all to ourselves.

As with many couples we work with from Asia, Daisy & Louis wanted a more natural and spontaneous look and of course a few fashion oriented portraits thrown in as well. After traveling to the usual locations (the Charles Bridge, Riverside and of course around Kampa) for their pre wedding portraits we headed to the always busy Old Town Square where they were quickly ushered upstairs and exchanged their vows. A short carriage ride afterwards provided the ending to the morning and then a break in the afternoon before our hair & makeup team readied them for a very short and magical sunset pre wedding portrait session.

I am very pleased at how this session turned out and Daisy & Louis were also quite pleased even though they had only seen a few images on the back of the camera. A week later they contacted me again and asked if we can do a second session with them in Venice / Venezia – of course I said yes.

But before we showcase their beautiful Venice session, let’s take a look at one of the most beautiful pre wedding portrait sessions captured by yours truly in Prague.

H&I (Israel) Prague destination wedding

It wasn’t exactly ‘love at first site’ between Haya & Igor. When they first met at work they did not care for each other. Perhaps it was because they were both already romantically in a relationship with others? But fate has a way of interceding and a few months later – after getting to know each other – they both found themselves living as singles again and in need of a new place to call home. As apartments are very expensive in Israel, it seemed like a good idea to combine their incomes and find a suitable place to call home. And a friendship quietly blossomed into a relationship. As Haya recounts, they never really had a ‘real date’.

After their courtship they announced that they were to marry. But where? They had considered Cyprus but Prague with its beautiful architecture, Old Town Square and castle dominating the skyline won their hearts. Originally it was to be only 3 days in Prague for a quick wedding between the two of them, but with their family & friends wishing to join them the decision was made to stay a week so that a proper bachelor/bachelorette party could be arranged. For Haya & Igor having their close family & friends join them in Prague was truly special and one they both truly appreciate.

One of the most lasting impressions I have of these two (besides the fact that everyone had a wonderful time and these two are a real joy to be around was) – Haya’s absolutely beautiful and very elegant wedding dress. The design came about from an idea that Haya had sketched out with her sister, and as her friend and sister could sow, they took it upon themselves to create this very beautiful, elegant and stylish dress. Knowing that this dress was designed and created by them makes it that much more special.

Presented here is a collection of images captured from their very special wedding day here in Prague.
