I had spent
three weeks of December in the cold of Hanoi and got back to Koh Samui just in
time for a Slovakian couple's wedding a few days ago (that's for those who might
have asked Where the hell I was going) You will see the photos by the end of
this post, but let me show you my at-the-moment excitement first: We (me and
Matt) have done a simple Barn Props set-up for future elopements or wedding
photoshoots and it looked (quite) great. The whole purpose was to see
how quickly a set-up can be done what WHATEVER we had around the neighborhood.
Since it was a last-minute game, we chose the abandoned house next door as our
background to save some time.
Some basic
style-guides:
Theme: (will-be-more)
Rustic-Barn/GardenFlowers: White orchid &
Hedera, Butterfly Peas and a few can-not-named plantsColour: Green-White with a
dash of red.

Forget tape, you might want
to use steel string instead since it can easily be formed/bent and it's
waterproof. Next time I will follow this

We found many crystal vases
and glasses in the basement but unluckily we could not find any flowers to fill
them up. |

Have you ever seen a ring
dropped on a beach and got lost in the sand? Ring basket is here to save
you. |

4m-wide doors as the
background. |

Mirrors
always add natural light to the scene. |

Me picking the Calamagrostis
Karl Foerster in the grass field next door. (It was fun although we didn't add
them at last. Maybe next time when I have more colours in my flower
palette) |
Let's take a
look at another garden themed engagement shoot in Bantai beach last
