Prague is without a doubt one of the most romantic cities in the world. I’m sure you will agree with me on that one…exploring the cobbled streets, admiring the beautiful buildings, soaking up the history and romance that breathes at you on every step. And of course the adventure of discovering beautiful secret spots and hidden gems (beautiful old doors or statues) or little treasures in the local artisan and boutique shops (I’m such an admirer of beautiful handcrafted products). I love to wander around the old streets soaking up the atmosphere. It fuels my imagination, my head is full of romantic stories when I’m visiting lovely historic places.

This incredible place is where Ly and Hung met, and where they fell in love. That is why they chose this beautiful city for their engagement session, prior to them moving away to start a business and to live in a different part of Czech. 

Ly and Hung were both born in Vietnam, where they were shortly due to have their wedding whilst being surrounded by their families and closest friends. 

I wasn’t aware of this prior to the shoot, but it is a beautiful vietnamese tradition to share and celebrate all the important and special moments during the wedding reception which amongst other things includes screening the engagement photos during their wedding reception on a big screen… So this is where I came in :). 

That is also why they asked towards the end of our session to have a few photos taken of the sort of re-enacment of the actual proposal… so their families could feel the excitement and incredible happiness that this moment had brought to them both.

I was lucky enough to meet and photograph these two via the absolutely amazing and super-talented team at Organizace Svatby in Prague. Not only are Zaneta and Jana the best at what they do, they are also lovely, caring and make sure that everything they create is bespoke, special and meaningful to the couple as their love and personalities itself.

The feel of the day:

“  As Ly and Hung stood on ‘Charles Bridge’, they didn’t see the beautiful views of Prague’s castle. They didn’t hear the excited talking and screams of the hundreds of tourists streaming by. They only saw and heard each other – they were in the moment. Fully and unconditionally in love. It was mesmerising and incredible to experience.

He just softly brushed windblown hair from her cheek, she snuggled into his arms and he gave her a gentle reassuring squeeze with his eyes closed. The sort of squeeze that says “I’ve got you honey, I will look after you for eternity”.

Some people are just meant to be – it’s just so simply obvious. You will recognise them when you see them. The love so obvious and simple, it gives you butterflies, the warm fuzzy feeling in your tummy. Makes you give your man an unexpected hug and a kiss – because you realise just how lucky you are, to have the love of your life standing right beside you.  ”
