Knowing that it will cost a bomb to top up more photos from La Belle (on top of the free 36 poses our package gave us), we have decided to take up another pre-wedding photoshoot (also known as engagement photoshoot) hah. As dear likes a tinge of vintage, we narrowed down to two photographers which provide photography with a vintage touch, and at very affordable prices – Oh, Dear! Photography and Confetti Peektures!
After quite a bit of email correspondences, and lots of browsing of their works online, we eventually decided on Oh, Dear! as we like their works slightly more hah. Actually both are not bad, and their styles are pretty similar. The package offered by Oh, Dear! is actually more expensive by almost 40%, I guess largely because they are more established and experienced.
More about Oh, Dear! Photography:
“We specialise in Vintage Engagement Shoots, Maternity Shoots, Bridal Portraits, Family Portraits and all things lovely. Based in sunny Singapore, we are available for overseas shoots as well. Oh, Dear! Photography is all about being Natural and whimsical with a touch of Vintage. It’s also about bringing together our love for photography, for new relationships and for happy times. We celebrate life, love, kisses and Engagements.”

The engagement package we signed up includes:
- 3 hours of photoshoot at 2 locations of our choice
- Return of all hi-resolution pictures taken (approximately 200)
- Return of 60 fully edited pictures (vintage style of course)
- All pictures return in soft copy – DVD within 2 weeks
At $680 nett, we thought it is pretty value-for-money and more importantly, we kind of like their style hah. A deposit of $280 has just been paid to secure our photoshoot date on 22 July 2012. Yes, thats how busy the popular Melody (the photographer) is!
Now that we have confirmed this additional pre-wedding shoot, we must really be firm and not top up any photos with La Belle. If not it would have defeated the whole purpose, since the reason why we want to take this up in the first place is to avoid paying the exhorbitant $80 per picture for the top up. (This paragraph is obviously dedicated to dear hah).
*Note that the price of $680 nett is only valid for booking by March 2012.
