Last weekend, I had a pre-wedding shoot at one of Singapore’s latest attractions, The Marina Barrage. Ban Yew was my schoolmate back in the day. I’ll also be covering Ban Yew and Esther’s wedding in June.

In the morning, it was really cloudy and it rained most of the afternoon. I was praying that the weather would change, despite the fact that I was prepared for a wet day at Marina Barrage. I was telling my wife that each time I want to go out and shoot a pre-wedding, it is always raining. I’m a master in “dramatic skies” due to the rain clouds, I told her. It’s been a long time since I last shot a pre-wedding with a blue sky. But thank God, everything turned out the way it did because at 5pm, the sun was up and the sky was nothing but spectacular.

I was accompanied by two friends, Melvin and Andrew whom I met at Louis Pang’s Workshop in KL. They helped by giving ideas and snapped a few photos for Ban Yew and Esther.

Here are some photos from behind the scene. (Wide angled photos courtesy of Melvin)

I had to pixelate part of the photo below. Teeheehee.

What was not to like about the sky that day! It was pure awesomeness!

As the sunset came, we definitely walked away with several great shots.

I’m very excited as there are so many great shots that we got out of our little trip to Marina Barrage. Ban Yew and Esther were also very accommodating as we shot from 5pm to 9pm. However, I’m sure they would be very pleased with the shots we’ve got. The next update would be a two-part series of the pre-wedding session.

For now, here is a shot we took from the shoot that day…
