Promises! Promises!

In my LucysBuzz entitled Super Sexy Sri Lanka Wedding! WOW! I promised that I would upload the Pre-Wedding video of Milan and Shenzie. So, today is the day!

I also promised some dish about it. Rather than go into the juicy details, I’ll make it short. After several days of shooting the video with the full retinue, the retinue participants changed! Which meant that all those days of shooting were down the drain. A new storyline had to be developed. The couple maintained their cool, reorganised everything (including dresses) and Lipton came up with a new concept for the video. It meant shooting until the last minute and editing also until the last minute. Thanks to Lipton’s organised efforts, and the cool-as-a-cucumber couple, it all worked out!

The video shows everyone getting ready on the wedding day and it was played for the crowd at the Jaiq Hotel. You’ll see the door of the wedding hall in the last frame – that’s when the bride and groom make their grand entrance into the hall!

Here it is! Watch and share like crazy!

Pre-Wedding Video Shoot in Galle Fort

Today is Chathu & Kusan’s wedding (photos to come later). Two weeks ago Lipton did a pre-wedding video shoot with the couple and their retinue. He wrote the story, directed it and was the director of photography.

I am so proud of him! And proud of the couple and their friends on how creative they all were!

This is a must to share on LucysBuzz!

Enjoy!

Romantic Shoot at the Park!

August has been a busy month for us with all the weddings. There are literally thousands of photos for me to edit! Which is why I haven’t written a Lucy’sBuzz as of late.

We also did a ‘pre-wedding shoot’, which I like to call a ‘Romantic Shoot’ because the couple is much freer than they are at weddings. For one thing, they are wearing their normal clothes, not a heavy gowned that is so pinned that the bride can’t move her arms. And no family crowd watching them, so they feel free to even give the odd kiss here and there!

We always have fun at the Romantic Shoots!

This shoot was taken at Viharamadevi Park in Colombo. The couple had to get permission from one of the government departments, and a letter stating that permission was given. At the park, several officials checked to make sure we had the letter. Otherwise, if we hadn’t, they would have kicked us out!

Friends of Shazna and Zakeer snuck up on the couple with balloons, tiara, ‘bride and groom’ ribbons, a ring and earrings and even cake! Boy, were they surprised!

And we got it all on the camera!

Enjoy!

Pre-Wedding Shoot in a park-like Setting!

I woke at 6:15AM and didn’t hear a sound in the house. That wasn’t right. Lipton was supposed to be up and about for his early morning pre-wedding shoot! Not wanting to get out of bed, I rang him on his mobile. No answer! The buggar had slept through his alarm. On the third call, he finally answered.

‘Aren’t you ready to go?’ I said.

‘Oh s^#*!’ he said.

One minute later I heard the water running in the bathroom. Then I fell back asleep. Knowing Lipton, I knew he had everything covered and he had plenty of time to get to the location to meet the couple.

When the shoot was over and Lipton came back home, I was anxious to see the photos. I love pre-wedding shoots. Lipton always takes something different and interesting!

Happy to see the good collection of images, we argued about what photos to put up on the ShadeTree Production FB page and Lipton’s own FB page vs. Lucy’sBuzz. As usual, we compromised and so you get to see Lipton’s photos here, on ShadeTree Productions and Lipton’s FB pages!

Pre Wedding Shoot at the Beach!

We used to call ‘pre wedding shoots’ Romantic Shoots, but most Sri Lankan photographers stuck to the unimaginative title of ‘pre wedding shoots’ (PWS) and so we changed our creative Romantic Shoots, to match the majority.

Lipton took this PWS yesterday at Mount Lavinia beach and if it’s not romantic, I’ll eat my camera!

Note: Of course, I’m withholding the most romantic images as per the couples’ request. But you can get the idea from these below!
