Hello there,
According to the album coordinator at CL (or whatever titles they have these days), she mentioned sufficient photos must be selected in order to have a proper concept for each album. One for indoor, one for outdoor. I was extremely adamant about NOT having the hard copies. And even if it means having an album which includes indoor and outdoor shoots together, I'm good.
However, she was just as adamant about having sufficient photos so as to have proper concepts in TWO albums. Knowing that I can't be convinced (as I am willing to look beyond the "once in a lifetime" tagline), she targeted the fiance and continued convincing him. And so he paid. Sigh. Has anyone stuck to the package strictly and refused to take the additional photos?
To give Z Weddings the credit -
Amber: I thought I'd looked really weird with her make-up (as I'd requested for a japanese look) but the photos turned out much better than expected. It could be just me not being used to heavy make-up... falsies and all that jazz. She's extremely easy to work with.
Samuel: He tried his utmost to make us laugh, so most of our pictures were extremely well-taken and natural. Considering that neither of us ride the selfie wave that took over instagram. However, the heavens weren't on our side so we had to manage with the drizzle. To commend Sam, we couldn't even tell that there was the slightest bit of rain. Was it the lens? Digital editing? But we were definitely impressed that the outdoor photos looked nice and dry despite the rain.
May: A sweet young thing who allowed me to tried a gazillion gowns patiently.
Gown selection process
I'd brought along friends who like similar kinds of fabrics and designs. However, most of their gowns fall within the range of princess silouhettes. Being a petite person, I believe in choosing a cut that doesn't make me any shorter than I am. Hence, I'm not a big fan of that and took forever to decide on 'the one'. However, their short gowns are lovely!
I hope my experience will help those who are doing some 'homework'.
