Maankrit & Shaumi are engaged, and their session at the Dominion Arboretum was one of our favourite engagement shoots to date. 🌸 With the spring blooms in full colour, the scenery couldn’t have been a more perfect backdrop for these two. We had the best time capturing this season of your love story and we already can’t wait to celebrate your wedding day!

The pictures that mean the most are the ones that show the candid, in-between moments that you may have missed on the night of your wedding. They’re the ones filled with emotion and love. 💗

Some wedding tips from photographers who’ve seen it all! 📸⚡️

• Leave extra time in your schedule! Everything takes longer than you think.

• Do a private first look!! It’s a candid, emotional moment for just the two of you before the big celebration.

• Stay present. The day goes by SO FAST.

• Golden hour photos are always worth sneaking away for!

• Your guests don’t notice the small things that go “wrong”

• Eat something and drink water (!!)

• The best photos probably won’t be the posed ones.

At the end of the day, your wedding isn’t a photoshoot, it’s a memory and an experience. The best photos come from couples who genuinely enjoy the day together…
