For our engagement photoshoot, I selected three beautiful locations: SF City Hall, the Palace of Fine Arts, and the Golden Gate Bridge. Unfortunately, we experienced unexpected traffic delays on the day of the photoshoot due to an SF event, causing us to be late. However, Felix and his assistant, Amelia, were incredibly understanding about the situation and warmly welcomed us. We immediately began capturing photos on the grand stairs of City Hall.
Throughout the photoshoot, Felix demonstrated exceptional guidance in terms of posture, including instructions on hips, arms, neck, and face angles. He directed us on how to smile, where to look, and when to interact with each other. He assured us that even if some poses felt unusual at the time, they would look fantastic in the photos, and he was absolutely right. Felix's innovative ideas, such as capturing photos in an elevator, from a top view of a spiral staircase, or through hollow carvings, added a unique and natural touch to our gallery.
Amelia took care of details related to our attire that would have been challenging for both my husband and me to manage on our own. She ensured we were in the right positions, that the dress skirt spread elegantly, and she helped with choosing the right veil for different scenes. Her assistance with lifting the dress skirt and veil to achieve the perfect flutter in some photos was invaluable.
Felix and his team consistently went above and beyond to meet our expectations. We initially had two spots in mind for photographing the Golden Gate Bridge. The first set at Crissy Field, taken at sunset, exuded romance. As the sun began to set, I almost abandoned the idea of capturing photos at Battery Spencer, another spot I had dreamed of, fearing that it might be too dark. However, Felix remained flexible and open to discussing the concept, even though it was late at night and technically challenging. We mutually agreed that it would be optional, and as a result, we obtained a few stunning and iconic photos at Battery Spencer against the backdrop of the Golden Gate Bridge and the city's night view. I was immensely grateful for Felix and his team's dedication, considering the challenging conditions, including the darkness and cold temperatures.
Lastly, I'd like to share my thoughts on the final engagement photo gallery we received from Felix. Initially, I had concerns about whether the photos would focus solely on the grand architecture or background, potentially neglecting the loving essence of our relationship, or whether our physical features would be portrayed positively. However, with the gallery I received, I can confidently say that the photos are exceptionally natural, stunning, beautiful, romantic, brimming with vitality, and filled with love. I am sincerely appreciative of Felix and his team's dedication and professionalism in delivering these remarkable works of art that are truly priceless. read more
