Hieu & An: Go Cong, Mekong Delta, Vietnam

doctor447 — Fri, 04 Feb 2011 12:37:01 +0000

Aidan: This was not our usual engagement photoshoot, but then Hieu and An were not your usual couple! Outrageously fun and infectiously funny, An and Hieu led the way around Go Cong, An’s family home in The Mekong Delta. We went to the pagoda in the morning and the coast in the afternoon; the last shots are from the family ice factory which turns out 5,000 slabs a day!

Thanks to Kerry, who will be shooting their wedding in Tay Ninh, and came along for the day. We had a great day with a really great couple.

Hong & The Anh: Hanoi 1000 years

doctor447 — Wed, 29 Sep 2010 07:07:46 +0000

Aidan: Hong is the cousin of a good friend of ours, Mr. Vinh from highly recommended travel agency, Handspan Tours. When she got in touch with us for a pre wedding shoot we knew as she was part of his family it was going to be fun!

As Hanoi is approching it’s 1000 year celebrations, much of the city is in a state of repair and many of the sites we wanted to visit were unapproachable. But not to worry, Hong and The Anh were up for anything and we made our way from Hoan Kiem Lake to Bai Da by the Red River, Long Bien Bridge, The Old Citadel and finished the photo shoot at sunset by West Lake.

The day had brought up quite a thirst and Hong announced she wanted to go for a Bia Hoi (large drinking establishment frequented predominantly by men). Undeterred, in full wedding gown, she gracefully made her way through the spitting and profanity and knocked back a couple of cold ones to recharge from the long day!

What a great couple. It is their An Hoi this weekend and their wedding is coming up very soon. We wish them all the very best!

VWP, another year older….

It is just over a year since we photographed together as VWP, and to celebrate this we have a wedding photography exhibition at Highway4 Restaurant and Bar, 5 Hang Tre, Hanoi. Running from 7th to 28th October we are displaying hundreds of images in collages on their ground floor.

Every single wedding has been a pleasure to be involved in, from China Beach in Danang to the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Hoi An, Halong Bay and Luang Prabang; The Metropole and Inter Continental Hotels in Hanoi and the privilege of photographing The Prime Minister’s daughter’s wedding at The Caravelle in Ho Chi Minh City.

Upcoming dates include new venues for us; Khao Lak in Thailand, Siem Reap in Cambodia and the stunning Six Senses Hideaway near Nha Trang, Vietnam. This month we will be at The Park Hyatt in Saigon and The Sheraton in Hanoi.

Natalia & Jaroslaw : Hanoi & Halong Bay Wedding

doctor447 — Sun, 20 Sep 2009 18:59:59 +0000

Aidan: Natalia and Jaroslaw loved Hanoi so much when they visited two years ago that they brought their families over from Poland to get married here. A relaxing day cruising in Halong Bay was followed by a cyclo ride to a pagoda in The Botanical Gardens for a beautiful ceremony by the lake, with dinner at The Metropole. The wedding was made official by The Polish Embassy, their first ever wedding in Hanoi and champagne at The Opera House.

Aditya & Linda : Hanoi and Halong Engagement

doctor447 — Wed, 13 May 2009 02:32:54 +0000

Aidan & Justin: Aditya and Linda flew up from Indonesia to have their engagement photos shot in Hanoi and Halong Bay, just as the weather up here started to turn favorable after a winter of soggy, foggy photo sessions. Special thanks to associate snapper Justin who stepped as Julian was out the country collecting his photojournalist award.

Guilhem & Huyen : Hanoi engagement shoot

doctor447 — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 09:52:04 +0000

Aidan:

Tour guide, Bar owner and Minsk Club footballer Guilhem and his fiancee Huyen braved the heat on Sunday as Summer hit Hanoi. Some say it reached 39′C in the early afternoon but the couple kept smiling as they wiped the sweat from their brows.

Staying away from the clicheed Opera House and Botanical Gardens which can get very crowded with future brides, the iconic Long Bien Railway Bridge made a perfect backdrop for the warm afternoon light.

Unfortunately we won’t be able to cover their an hoi and wedding in Huyen’s hometown next month, but hope to catch up with them soon in Ket Noi, an ethnic bar in Hanoi’s Old Quarter.

Markus & Hanh : Luang Prabang Wedding

doctor447 — Sun, 19 Apr 2009 23:26:46 +0000

Julian:

Markus and Hanh are an American couple who lived in Vietnam for many years before returning to the US just a few years ago. Since they still have a lot of friends in Vietnam, but wanted a wedding with a little extra flavor, they arranged their ceremony to take place in lovely Luang Prabang, Laos. Luang Prabang is one of those rare gems of a town that has managed to remain fairly sleepy (it is Laos afterall) despite the growth of tourism and all the changes, good and bad, that brings. I first visited there in 1999, and its still charming and romantic as ever, with gorgeous golden wats littered among the leafy, quiet French colonial streets. The people are amazingly friendly, the food divine and prices very reasonable. If I was getting married, this would be very high on my list of destinations.

Thang and Chi : The Inter Continental Hotel Hanoi

doctor447 — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 19:16:38 +0000

Aidan: The winter weddings continue in Hanoi, and the Interncontinental is fast becoming the most popular hotel in town for photoshoots. And for good reason – Thang and Chi absolutely loved shooting here, and had no problem getting comfortable in front of the camera in these beautiful surroundings. We’re really looking forward to the wedding at the Sheraton in Hanoi next week!
