LORA & BLACKWATER PHOTOGRAPHY - My sister Sara Shantelle Lim and I have known Timothy since young as we were childhood friends. I was really happy and thankful that Timothy agreed to help me take Pre-Wedding Photography shoot at Sofitel So Singapore. In my honest opinion, I must say he is extremely talented and patient. Equipped with the latest photography and lighting equipment, Timothy takes excellent photos that are incredibly beautiful. His photos are poignant and capture the essence of the moment. He even gave us many interesting ideas on how to pose and position ourselves to capture a better and more beautiful angle of ourselves. It was an enjoyable photo shoot overall and we are all very pleased with the outcome of the photos!

ABOUT BLACKWATER PHOTOGRAPHY - Always keen on photography as a teenager, Timothy never had the finances nor the opportunity to learn photography. His interests however, had never waned. In 2008, He jumped at the first opportunity he could during his internship at Temasek Polytechnic, and started to photograph events for his company. After closing his modelling agency, Timothy used his funds to purchase his very first DSLR, and contacted Kin, one of his former colleagues from Singapore Press Holdings. Together, they began experimenting with different lights and shadows and having enlisted the help of some model friends. Timothy and Kin started moving from portraits to products, events and wedding photography.
Having been fascinated by the works of Ryan Brenizer, Kin felt the burning desire to capture impressive images as well, and thus kick-started his journey as a photographer in 2007. In his opinion, photography is the perfect balance between artistic sense and technical knowledge. Initially as a fledgling photographer, Kin was contented to have won compliments and praises from his friends and family, but as his passion for photography grew, he decided to leave his full time job and fully pursue his interests.
In 2009, Kin and Timothy founded Blackwater Photography, and in addition to their own experiences and techniques, they believe in constant improvement to capture the best moments that life has to offer.

Lora's Pre-Wedding Photography Part 3 - BEAUTIFUL LOVE WEDDING - The "Tangerine" Gown

Most brides love wearing white wedding gowns as they exude pristine purity but doning a colored wedding gown injects an element of flirty fun and vibrance to achieve a cheerful overall effect. I chose this "Tangerine" gown as this photo shoot took place during the Chinese New Year festive period and "Tangerine" in Chinese sounds similar to "luck" so I hope that wearing this gown will help to bring me auspicious good luck. As it was the final dress that I wore for the shoot, my sister Sara Shantelle Lim and girlfriends Natasha Kittisara and Enne Tan joined us to create an interesting and fun photoshoot with many candid and spontaneous shots. The girls were happily posing and jumping off the bed to show their happiness for me. I was glad that I could just sit and look pretty. I guess they were high on champagne and chocolates. The girls were also in awe of my giant Swarovski Crystal ring which I got from the Singapore International Jewelry Exhibition (SIJE) 2013 held at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore. What an interesting shoot! It was a memorable day filled with joy, fun and laugher! Love you girls :) You can always count on your girlfriends to bring out the best in you!

Lora and Beautiful Love Wedding - I was delighted to work with Beautiful Love Wedding as they are a very professional bridal boutique in Singapore that not only carries the most elegant, beautiful and exquisite wedding gowns, they are extremely passionate about the work they do. I had the opportunity to take a look at all the designs of their newest collection of Wedding Gowns, discuss my personal preference and finally decide on which gowns I would like to wear for my pre-wedding photo shoot. I selected a total of 3 wedding gowns which included the "Princess" gown, the "Grace" gown under the Grandeur Collection and the "Tangerine" gown under the Colours Collection. White has always been my favorite color so it should not come as a surprise that I chose 2 white gowns out of the 3. Do not forget my nickname was "WhiteGaL" when I used to play Counterstrike many years back in various competitions. Click on each image to enlarge photos :)



The "Tangerine" Gown

The "Tangerine" gown - This "Tangerine" wedding gown features an interesting weave of pink, gold and champagne hues which creates a sweet, demure "princess" look. With a sweetheart neckline, this glorious "Tangerine" gown has a gentle grace and feminine touch. Its delicate champagne- gold encrusted embroidery and multi-layered tulle skirt allows one to look absolutely stunning in the swirls of luxurious colors chosen out of a sophisticated palette. Putting on this pastel colored wedding gown, I was immediately glowing with warm, rose gold radiance just like a flower in the vast beautiful fields of wilderness during a romantic sunset. This gown's peachy colors complements one's skin tone, transforming a simple girl into an alluring bride who radiates a stunning healthy glow, fresh radiance and unique beauty.  It is definitely a wedding gown that helps to highlight a bride's youthfulness, elegant grace, vitality, sass and character. An extraordinary stunning piece like no other...
