Happy Dog Year!!

This is the first time I spent my Chinese New Year in Taiwan since I went to America. It has been 7 years!!!! Maybe it's because mom had to go to Hong Kong right before Chinese New Year for uncle's funeral, maybe it's because not all our family is here, it felt quite different than the ones we had when we were children. I really missed the days when all the kids occupied one table and sits separate with the adults. Chinese New Year was the one holiday I really looked forward because we can come to Taipei and play with our cousins. Now with all the young ones aboard and have their own family, it is really difficult for all of us to meet again. I was really lucky that I got to see all big aunt's family during the time I was in Taiwan. I really hope that our kids can have the same great experience I had when I was a child with all their cousins to play with. 

 

ps: Because mom was in Hong Kong before the Chinese New Year, dad and I had to prepare all the food for New Year. It was really interesting to go to the traditional market and get food, but I really need to practice on my bargain skills......

Got my photos~

Yesterday I went to get my final products of my photos. It looks different in large  formate then in small ones. Overall it is not too bad, but I think I could have deleted more photos.....I have to declair that Sam was the one who madw the final decision on how many photos we are keeping, if it was me I would have kept them all!!   :-p   They really did a lot of work on my eyes though.......

 

BeforeI got these photos, I still don't feel like I'm getting married. But when I saw them, I suddenly realized that I am really going to marry this guy in the photos!! (Good thing that Sam looks very nice in the photos!! :-D   ) It is such a strange feeling.......

 

Well, here are some of the final products. I couldn't upload all of them because of the file size. Enjoy!!

Busy Busy part 1

不知不覺回台灣也快一個月了,每天節目都排得滿滿的,一刻都不得閒,所以拖了這麼久都沒有post照片上來........

 

12/21回到台灣,隔天就把婚紗的事搞定了,只看了三家就決定去絕色拍. 隔天挑衣服是最好玩的部份,雖然蠻累的但是可以試穿各式各樣不同的禮服真的很有趣. Sam跟媽媽都給了不少意見, Sam這麼有耐心的坐了四個小時也真不容易. 12/30拍婚紗那天起了一大早,原本還很高興看到太陽,想說我真是幸運,結果兩個多小時後化完裝天氣就開始變陰......在士林官邸拍外景時勉強還好,但是當我們離開要去陽明山時就開始下雨了,到山上還起大霧,害我們拍不到枯樹林只好轉到另一處松樹林拍攝.當時仍 下著雨,又濕又冷,我們還是拍完了.我當時十分擔心拍出來效果會不好,但是挑片時看到成果真的嚇一跳,不枉費我被蚊子咬了好幾個包........媽媽最神勇了,不但全程跟拍還能一邊做股票一邊充當攝影師,外兼打雜及總指揮,若不是攝影師答應開車,媽媽本來還要充當司機呢!!!!

在士林官邸拍時有一段小插曲, 因為是公共公園所以有許多遊客圍觀,當中有一為外國人看的十分有意思還用他的相機拍了一張,後來有一群香港遊客跟媽媽聊了起來,事後遊客中的小妹妹也要求和我合照,真是受寵若驚!!

 

說起這次的婚紗經驗到目前為止我都覺得還算滿意,從第一天門市 Teresa 小姐(是的,很巧她也叫 Teresa....) 就非常有耐心的解說及接待我們, 我想會決定在這家拍和Teresa耐心的接待態度有很大的關係吧!! 在挑衣服時她也幫了不少忙, 挑片時更是耐心的陪我們挑了5個小時.....是的,我們挑了5個小時, 因為拍出來的結果實在比我想的好太多了!!!害我都捨不得刪,倒是媽媽一直把我的獨照刪掉都不刪Sam的,實在有點偏心耶!!!!!怎麼覺得Sam比我還得寵勒???? 造型師莊老師Songya看起來蠻嚴肅的,但是超專注的.第一次臉上抹了這麼厚的粉,而且每換一次造型就要抹一層,到後來Sam說好像上了水泥漆......不過Songya真的很會做造型,每一個我都很喜歡.為了加大我的瞇瞇眼Sonya加了雙層膠帶和雙層假睫毛(沒辦法,跟我的胸部一樣先天不足只好後天補強.....),剛開始看到我的妝很不習慣,好像有點不太像我,但是很神奇的在攝影機下就很好看,也許在相機前就是需要濃妝吧! 後來和她聊天後才知道這些裝飾品都是每個造型師自己的,不是大家共用的,為了投資這些東西他們也花了不少經費及心思呢!

 

攝影師小虫大哥是絕色資深的攝影師, 脾氣真是超好的, 只有對助理小偉才比較嚴格.基本上能把雨天的氣氛拍的這麼美就不容易,挑片時也沒給我們壓力. 拍到最後我們都快笑不出來了他還一直努力的逗我們笑也不容易,一直娘子帥哥的叫我們擺姿勢,虫Sir真的超會擺姿勢的!!隨便一站都非常嫵媚,我都跟他開玩笑說他和Sam站在一起還真是蠻配的!! 不過一天下來擺了不少完全違反人體工學的姿勢真是超累的.......就是因為虫Sir技術太好了, 1/1挑片那天才會那麼難以決擇,唯一較遺憾的是在士林官邸拍的部份滿意的並不多,也許是因為天氣不好加上剛開始拍所以感覺還沒抓到吧!!最後加加減減來來回回終於還是加了50組,最後total以80組收場....原來打定主意不加那麼多的完全破工,真是傷腦筋.....

 

以下是媽媽得意的跟拍照,她覺得她拍的跟攝影師有的比喔!!!攝影師拍的還沒拿到,等拿到了再與大家分享.
