Neil + Ly’s engagement session

It was a memorable day and perhaps one of the most exciting engagement photo shoots that I’ve had. :) On top of friendly and a great couple in Neil and Ly, we have talented designer and make up artist with us. The session was relaxing, fun, and interactive with creative and fun ideas.

Started from the newly discovered sunflower area in downtown, we went to monument circle taking pictures on the street when there was no traffic (had to go several times to get the right pictures), and lastly enough time to get to Indianapolis Museum of Art before the sunset. It was a blast and the picture highlights on this page showed what a fun day it was. I’m blessed and would like to thank everyone for such a great day!

Jennifer + Paul’s engagement ceremony

Capturing Vietnamese engagement ceremony is always interesting as not only important in the culture but also meaningful. It involves activities from asking permission to receive the bride, receiving the bride at her house, and paying respect to the family through tea and candle ceremony. I had fun covering the event and would like to congratulate both Jennifer and Paul for their engagement! :)

Noelle + Herschel’s engagement session

Meet Noelle and Herschel. I’m thankful not only for them taking their busy time out for the engagement / pre-wedding photo shoot, but also the much cooler summer morning here in Indy. We are blessed! It makes everything so much easier and we had fun going different places in capturing their pictures. They are mainly in downtown area focusing not only their favorite hangout coffee shop in Starbucks, but also some interesting part of the town. I had a great time knowing the couples and wish them all the best preparing for the wedding.

Raymond + Vonny’s engagement session

I knew Raymond & Vonny at least for 6 years going all the way back when I was in college. At that time, Indonesian student was very limited and everyone pretty much knew each other. However, Vonny and Raymond were different and more than a friend. They are my brother and sister in Christ who helped me tremendously and often spend our Friday nights having fellowship together with the group.

Both are now residing in different states and I was so thrilled when first found out that they are wanting to take some pictures here in Indianapolis before going back to Indonesia for their wedding. I had a blast and these two were just awesome and easy to work with. You will see from the pictures how fun and loving these two are. I’m blessed to be a part of it. :)

Other engagement sessions

With this photography blog and site being new, I would like to kindly present some of other engagements done in the previous sessions. They are dated from 2007 and 2008. If there is one thing, engagement pictures are fun! A lot of love and creativity as they are getting ready for the big day. The hardest part about the session is breaking the ice getting over the nervous state.
