Happy New Year!
So sorry for the extended hiatus (over and over again) and I owe so many stories to write on this blog. Allow me to share my first post with you in the beginning of 2016. Enjoy, readers!
Exactly a year ago I and my husband had a prewedding photoshoot at Bromo. The idea just sparked off when we were talking about what kind of photoshoot we have dreamt of before. I was very excited since I haven't gone to Bromo which is one of the most famous scenic attraction in East Java. I thought, it would be such an amazing place to document it. So next, we decided to look for concept, photographer, makeup artist, and outfit. Yes, planning a photoshoot can be quite mind-boggling, because there seems to
be so many things to think about.
The photographers were my husband's friends, Mas Imron and Mas Fauzi who are experienced for years in photography. Mba Rina, Mas Imron's wife, also took a part as a choreographer! :D For make-up, we entrusted Mba Mitha (
instagram.com/mitha.matoz) who is a well-known Make-up Artist in Malang.
We started our day at about 5 a.m. to do a basic make up at Helios Hotel Malang where I stayed. We left the hotel at about 6 a.m. and went to Bromo by a Range Rover. It took an hour to get to Bromo Mountain. The weather was a bit cloudy.
The first theme of photoshoot was formal. I wore a simple white gown with the lace part on top and my husband wore a long-sleeve white shirt plus cream trousers. While the second one was casual where we both wore blue jeans shirt and boots.

Among the embarassing and pointless photos, we chose only three best photos that would be printed and shown to people. The reasons why we picked these photos because we love how we looked at each other naturally. It contains emotion and love.. Hehe..
During the entire process of photo taking, we heard instructions
such as "eyes to eyes", "hands on the waist", "hands
inside your pocket", "hold hands", "look down at
your shoulder", "look far", "smile", show your teeth"... and the list
continues. :D
Posing for such photos is really not something that we are
used to. It feels odd, really not our style.
All in all, it's a great experience together with my husband and the supporting friends. It is super tiring. HOWEVER, we enjoyed the process altogether.
