{sian & barry} ~ wedding ~ bali

I’m shooting seven weddings in Bali this year, so in many ways it was weird coming back to shoot at the exact same place where I shot my first Bali wedding last year – Villa Pemutih in Padang Padang. It was my very own version of Groundhog Day. Only a million times better. This day is one I can relive for the rest of my life. Yes, sir. Barry and Sian sure know how to throw a party.

sofia - Jag skriver det här allt för sällan (även om du nog får höra det ganska ofta ändå) men du är väldigt duktig på det du gör.
Jag har följt dig ett tag (alltså din blogg, inte som en stalker) och jag är verkligen imponerad över att du vågade bryta från ditt gamla jobb och börja med ett nytt. Även över att du lyckats så bra med det.
Får man fråga om du har något favoritobjektiv till din kamera? och är det förresten okej att kommentera i din blogg på svenska?
Ha det fint.

Här är min riktiga sida.

I would like to request an offer for taking photographs (and videos in optional) on our wedding day (only for ceremony) on Bali somewhere outdoor on beach end of April, 2011. We would like to ask only digital (big) format on DVD without paper photos what we also can edit. We are waiting for your reply! Pls. let me know if you need any more information for your offer. Thank you very much!

Best regards,
Gabor Dorogi
