Preparing for Photoshoot

The past few evenings/nites have been spent in preparation for our photoshoot. Went to my fren's place on Thurs nite to discuss the places that we would wana go for our photoshoot and I must say this (even though he is my personal fren), he is damn professional!!! He asked us what are the things we like to do and whether there are anything in particular we wana take w. (I understand that for most photographers, they would only ask the couple on e day itself whr they wana go) Then he gave us some suggestions as well & get it, on Fri, he went w Dar & his fren 2 recee the Tanah Merah area to see if it was a suitable location!!! We dicussed for almost 2 hours (well we digressed in between lah) before goin for dinner. So tentatively the places that we wld be Tanah Merah, Punggol n then nite shots @ Esplanade/Fullerton. He suggested some other places like Coney Island coz Dar can drive us there but we were afraid that the gown wld get REALLY dirty so we deciced to forgo it. We will be goin back to Punggol another day for our casual shots whr he will take us wakeboarding, hopefully together. Dar has NO confidence in me that I can stand up together w him... guess I will hafta practise hard b4 e shoot :P

Then on Fri nite, went to see the florist to kinda discuss about my flora bouquet. The guy also v pro worz; he actually studied about flowers in Holland!!! N the farnee thng was, e first thing he told us was dat he doesn't do tulips and I wanted 2 choose tulips as my bouquet hahah! But wat he said was true lah, coz tulips die q easily then they wldn't lk as nice, so I will be having pink peonies, euthasmus (i thnk) n champagne roses. Sounds nice :) will meet up w him again b4 AD. Oh I actually wanted daisies also... like brite pink n brite yellow but he said that loud colours wld take e attention away from me, unless I m dark like Dar... so maybe I shd go get a gd tan b4 AD haha :P

Following that we went 2 meet w a videographer which we signed up w although I wasn't too impressed by him or rather I wasn't v happy that he didn't give us discount although Dar was his fren's fren n he wanted 2 charge us for like extra hrs n blah. *blech* but his video was a little diff than e ones we have seen n we also told him some of e thngs we wanted so hope everything turned out well.

& last nite, we went G2 to buy some shirts for Dar for the photoshoot. We thot they were on sale but they weren't!!! aiyah... made Dar buy an extra shirt for nothing :( oh well... then we walked into Goldheart coz my Grandma gave me some $ to buy a wedding gift for myself n within 10 min I bought a pair of sapphire earrings!!! Was dat fast or wat??? It was a little over e budget but Daddy said it was ok to pay for it myself n Dar offered to pay for me. :) n e gd thng is, I can wear it for the photoshoot on Wed coz my evening gown is blue! *happee* *happee*
