Couple with the Lone Wanaka Tree

This wedding couple was so in awe of the famous Lone Wanaka Tree in Wanaka, New Zealand, but when we arrived there, we were totally gobsmacked due to the number of landscape photographers surrounding the famous tree. There were at least 30-40 photographers, all with their cameras on tripods, all of them enthusiastically enjoying the popular tree against the stunning backdrop. We politely asked if we could have a short 5 minutes, so that we could place the couple near the tree. The group of landscape photographers kindly obliged, and we created this memorable image within 3 minutes.

Till We Grow Old

This was another unforgettable adventure we had in Barcelona, Spain, where the couple brought us to this stunning architecture by the great Ricardo Bofill. However, when we arrived there, we got kicked out as we weren’t familiar with the procedure and the building was very strict as it is actually a residence. We eventually had to come back later in the day, and we tried to create some shots on the outside of the building (this exact spot) and suddenly an old couple appeared with the guy pushing the old lady on a wheelchair into the scene: a perfectly imperfect scene that totally juxtaposed with what we had set up on the staircase.

Modern Day Rapunzel

Being in love with the mesmerizing creations of Tadao Ando, the beautiful Tamarind Square has scenes reminiscent of his style. This beautiful image was taken in between the Covid lockdown so we had to go somewhere not crowded and within the lockdown restriction rules, and this beautiful tower helped us create the Rapunzel fairy tale story, with the super long veil in place of the long golden hair to create a modern-day version of the story.
