Pre-Wedding Photography by Fifoto

Finally got our pre-wedding photos done in Melbourne 0n one hot spring day.

I was very lucky to have Sock Main to lend me her beautiful beautiful gown all the way from Sydney, as well as Joanne who woke up early in the morning to help me with my make-up.

Fiona, our photographer, tagged along a friend of hers, Gia, to help us with the photo shooting. It was great fun despite the hot weather. We went for a little tour inside Melbourne CBD for our photo shoots. Started from the GPO, we walked up to Collins St., back to Chinatown, and then the Treasury Garden. I am thankful that I wore a pair of flip-flops instead of heels!

Fiona, who was also a tourist, managed to show us a couple of interesting places such as Section 8 Container Bar and a newly painted Graffiti wall on ACDC Lane in the city. In the afternoon, we drove down to the Brighton Beach for a few more shots. The temperature soared to 37 degrees at 4pm, the beach was filled with beach goers and it became too glaring to have photos taken under the bright sunlight. Instead of going home 'empty handed', Fiona managed to take a few photos of us behind the colourful bathing boxes where there were some shades. Wished it was a cooler day with some clouds!

Nonetheless, it was really a 'different' but wonderful experience for me and CJ considering we do not have many good photos taken together in the past 8 years. Fiona really made us feel like supermodels that day!

Thank you so much ladies for giving us this special experience! =)
