LOVE CHASE: JOANNE & MATTHEW



LONDON CALLING!!!













THE COUPLE
Joanne Chew and Matthew Gan

The Bridal Portrait Locale
The city of London, United Kingdom

The Inspiration
Joanne and Matthew loved the Old English Gothic architecture – with stretches of shopping districts in a fast moving, cosmopolitan city, London- and knew it would be the perfect canvas for the glamorous and edgy bridal portraits they'd envisioned. The wedding photographer, Jon Low and I brought this vision to life by accenting it with simple yet edgy wedding gown and glamorous red evening dresses photographed at most the hotspots in London.

The Bride wore
Joanne started shopping for her wedding dress as soon as she became engaged to Matthew Gan. And when she fell in love with one of the sketches I had for my 2010 Collection, she was elated- then skeptical. Happily, an additional shopping trip only confirmed that the dress she singled out- a strapless sweetheart neckline, draped with French tulle trumpet gown and finished with teardrop Swarovski crystals and gold colored beads resembling the peacock feather lines at the top. As for the evening dress, she wants the red color to be the center of attention. Therefore, I got the dress done with no beads finishing but the dress was fully bloomed with handmade chiffon flowers at the shoulder right to her lower back of the dress. She had her hair and make up done all by herself!

The Groom wore
Matthew accented his white linen suit for the day and black tuxedo for night, both by D&G.

The Photographer
Joanne and Matthew were amazed by Jon Low's work and trusted him to have their wedding portraits done. Jon's god-given talent just fits perfectly in with this edgy and glamorous London Calling theme!
