Fresh Perspectives in Wedding Photography

Founded in 2004, CandidSyndrome has become synonymous with young, talented photographers who desire for nothing more than capturing the finest moments in photographs of the highest quality. With this passion for picture perfection, the CandidSyndrome team has propelled its shining stars of wedding and portraiture photography to international recognition, taking them across Asia and Europe to some of the most stunning settings in the world for the most memorable photoshoots their couples will not soon forget.

Destination photography is becoming increasingly popular with Malaysians. Where are some of your favourite destinations?
Destination weddings and photography are fantastic, non-traditional ways for fabulous wedding and portrait photos, not to mention unique and completely refreshing. Our photographers are no strangers to destination pre-wedding and portrait photography. Some of our most outstanding work features the beautiful landscapes in Bali, Cambodia, Agra, Jaipur, Rajastan, Venice, Amsterdam, London, Perth, Dublin and many others.

How do you personalize wedding photography to each couple?
It is essential to get to know the couple well so they are comfortable sharing their ideas, thoughts, expectations and personalities with us before we create a drawing board for their photoshoot. Beautiful pictures are only as good as their significance to the beholder.

How do you give your couples their distinctive style?
The style must complement the couple. Capturing their expressions is the most important thing, not so much the “glamour” poses. Our priority is to capture the happy, endearing moments where our clients are at their best. It is easy to get a pose, but it takes a special kind of skill and character to spark the laughter and great moments naturally; and that is what we are here for.

What kind of wedding photography is currently most popular?
Portraiture that depicts natural emotions and feelings. Posing unnaturally for a shot is passé. The most meaningful photos are those that are natural, artistic, realistic – shots of you feeling and looking your best, being with the person or people who mean the most to you.

Between pre-wedding and wedding day photography, which is more significant of the two?
They are both important. While your pre-wedding photoshoot is something you may redo if you didn’t like it, your wedding day photography takes place only once, which is why you must always hire a highly-recommended professional and do not go for the least expensive.

How many photographers do you assign for photoshoots?
For any photoshoot, we always assign at least two photographers. For certain conditions such as a pre-wedding shoot executed with a commercial photography approach, we assign more than two as many lighting setups and logistics are involved.

What are your rates like?
Our rates start from RM2,020.

What are your top tips when it comes to hiring wedding photographers?
• Always hire reputable professionals with excellent references; you do not want your wedding photographs to look anything less than perfect!

• It is crucial to meet your shortlisted photographers – a phone call or e-mail does not work. Great photographers are artists and need an impression of their subject before creating a drawing board that best suits your physical features, aspirations, style and personality.

I ve seen Manggis work before and I m very interested to hire you for my wedding. How can I do this?

There s few simple step you need to do if you would like to hire us.
First : Call and ask for the availability of your wedding/event dates.
Second : Make an appointment with our personnel. Meeting with our personnel will give you a better understanding of what we do. You can view our latest work and also discuss on a suitable package for you wedding. Our personnel will advice on how many cameras you will need for capturing your wedding. Remember, each wedding is different. Don’t worry, all of this consultation is free of charge even if you do not hire us.
Third : At the end of the meeting, we will come out with a quotation based on the discussion. If you would like to proceed with Manggis you will need to make a booking fee to make sure we reserve your dates.

How can I book and do you require a booking fee?

Booking fee is 20% on the overall total of your package. This booking fee is non refundable. Verbal confirmation without the booking fee is not acceptable.

One month before your event, you may need to make another 50% deposit and the remaining balance is upon delivery of your wedding dvds/photo albums.

We accept cash, cheque, credit card(accepted in manggis office only) and you can bank in to our maybank account via maybank2u. However you need to fax/email the receipt of the transaction if its been made online. Once we received, then only we will issue you the official receipt from Manggis.

We always like our potential client to go and browse other vendor as well. Its your wedding, decide whatever you love. However, we work on first come first serve basis. Do not take too much time browsing, you might loose the dates to somebody else.

When will the wedding dvds or photo album ready for delivery?

It will take around 4-6 weeks after your last event. The editing process involves a dedicated level of commitment and a LOT of man hours. We don’t just copy the footage from the camera straight onto a DVD. It is the audio editing, music matching, transition creation, opening titles, rendering, compositing and DVD authoring that takes the time… but we love what we do and we are proud of our creations!

Do I get to sit with the editor during the editing process?

No. When you hire us means you have put trust on our creativity.

Cliff-top wedding bliss at AYANA Resort and Spa Bali

One of southeast Asia’s most awarded resorts, AYANA Resort and Spa Bali offers 77 hectares of stunning cliff-top gardens overlooking Jimbaran Bay on Bali’s south-western peninsula. The only hotel in Indonesia to be listed amongst Asia’s top 15 resorts – and the world’s Top 100 – in the Travel + Leisure World’s Best Readers Survey 2009, AYANA’s landscaped tropical gardens are home to six distinct and ultra-exclusive wedding venues, spread out across the property to enjoy maximum privacy. These include:

* Two cliff-edge, all-glass wedding pavilions, Tresna and Astina, with illuminated glass aisles leading to magnificent glass altars
* AYANA Wedding Gazebo, located on the edge of the cliff within the 3,000sqm grounds of the three-bedroom AYANA Villa, Bali’s most exclusive venue for a wedding ceremony, reception and honeymoon all in one location
* Bale Kencana, a traditional Balinese thatch-roofed gazebo secreted behind ornate volcanic and limestone walls and surrounded by a tranquil pond, with 180-degree ocean views
* Asmara, a 350-year-old Javanese joglo, a ceremonial pavilion featured in the palaces of royalty in central Java
* Champa Garden, an avant-garde 20,000sqm multifaceted outdoor event space designed to host grand scale wedding ceremonies and receptions for up to 2,000 guests in complete seclusion

The resort’s latest addition is the ultra-glam Rock Bar, located on natural rocks 14 meters above the ocean at the base of towering cliffs. Accessed via an inclinator, this is a dramatic venue for a sunset cocktail party or recovery brunch to celebrate a new union.

These unique venues are complemented by the dedicated team of wedding specialists, honeymoon planners, hair and beauty stylists, florists and the White Door Bridal Boutique staff. With such a wealth of experience, it is still refreshing to know that no two weddings ever follow a standard formula. There is always something unique; be it special flower arrangements, requests for particular music or a song, to couples creating their own wedding vows, reception themes and menu options.

“It’s a new creation with every bridal couple who choose to marry at the resort. We have to be innovative in raising the bar for unique and tailored weddings as demand for weddings in Bali grows,” says the Resort’s resident Wedding Manager Vivi Susanti.

Taking their vows at AYANA is a very Cinderella-like experience, with special touches such as scented Rose Petal or Frangipani Flower Shower, fireworks over the Indian Ocean or an exclusive horse-drawn carriage riding off into the sunset. And let’s not forget about the cuisine, a major highlight of the AYANA experience. Whether it’s an intimate dinner for two or a wedding feast for 200 prepared by the award-winning team of chefs, a wedding at AYANA is a truly exquisite experience. Everything from an exotic cocktail reception serving canapés, plated sit-down meals to extraordinary banquets is easily accommodated.

With such a stunning range of venues and services to choose from, many couples from around South East Asia and beyond are increasingly favoring AYANA as the place to tie the knot. Traditions such as the bride and groom embarking on a separate voyage for their honeymoon are being replaced by honeymoons shared with family and friends. The more relaxed and informal approach where the whole wedding experience becomes a magical event also provides opportunities for exciting travel and discovery.

“Most bride and grooms are far more relaxed when they have their wedding away from home. Somehow everyone seems to enjoy the celebration more, probably because all the worries of a wedding are really taken care of by somebody else,” comments Vivi.

Weddings with a personal touch.

One should never underestimate how simple designs created with love can make such a huge impact on a wedding. At a function that is deemed the most important event in your life, YS Cheng and her team will overwhelm and touch the heart of your guests with floral arrangements or wedding decor that are absolutely stunning.

Creativelines are floral designers, not florists. They are responsible for the entire creative process from start to finish – from conceptualising the big picture to planning the implementation process (no matter how massive the scale), seeing the plan to fruition and crafting every single detail of the wedding by hand to provide that personal touch. Even the finest details are customised according to the wedding couple’s personalities and wishes, much like the creation of an haute couture dress. No two dresses are the same because every dress is made to fit a special customer.

The passion Creativelines has for creating works of art can only come from the heart. They never fail to mesmerise their clients, generate jaw-dropping reactions and grab the attention of future brides at wedding functions, is like your best friend when it comes to your wedding preparations. It’s the little things that count and the small gestures that mean a lot.

Through these exposures, our artists have come to understand that to bring out the best in a person’s appearance, blending of a person’s character and personality with the least make-up possible is the key to enhance the person’s natural beauty.

When you’re busy planning all the details of your wedding, you may forget to stop and smell the flowers. In any wedding or formal occasion that demands elegance, beautiful wedding flowers arrangements are a must. Bridal bouquet, corsages, garlands, centerpieces, arches, table and stage decorations, wedding flowers play a key role in your wedding’s overall theme and style! It is therefore essential to hire a florist whose style and flair for design really appeal to you.

Mimi from ABCD Flower Boutique remembers the time when she was planning her wedding and was drawn close to tears several times when she saw her floral arrangements. But they were not tears of joy. She started her own floral design company, and within a short time, built a reputation as the “fairy godmother” of floral design – her magical touch turns your wedding into a fantasy!

“Sooner is better than later!” We book Full and Partial Wedding Planning packages well in advance (up to two years) but only book Day of Coordination / DOC packages up to one year in advance.

While we try to update our calendar found on the “Contact Us” section, please contact us for our availability.

How much notice do you need to book Day of Coordinator Services?

If we’re not booked, we’re available!

What is required for booking your services?
We require a signed contract and a non-refundable $100 deposit to book our Day of Coordination Services (Something Blue/Something Old/Something Borrowed/Something New) and a 30% non-refundable deposit to book our Full or Partial Service Planning Package (Silver Sixpence.)

We will be sure to provide you with an alternate coordinator should the need arise. You will be notified in advance and the replacement coordinator will be well informed of your needs.

Can I add products or services after I’ve signed the contract?
Of course you can! We will work with you to suit your needs and draft another contract if necessary.

Do you offer product or service package discounts?
The more the better! We will discount high quantities.

How many hours are included on the day of the wedding?
Our standard packages include 10 hours of service on the day of your wedding.

What about tipping?
We get this question a lot! As with other vendors who are out there working hard to make sure your day is everything you dreamed of, gratuities are of course appreciated, but certainly not a requirement.

What benefits do I have for using your “preferred vendors?”
We pride ourselves on reputation and excellent service. Our preferred vendors may offer a discount at their discretion should you mention that you are a client of ours.

What is the best way to contact?
We prefer email as it enables us to keep your information organized best. We will respond to all emails within 24-hours during the week and within 48-hours on weekends as we are often working at this time.

What is the difference between a Day of Coordinator and a Bridal Attendant, Event Coordinator, or Banquet Manager provided to me by my reception site?
A Bridal Attendant, Event Coordinator, or Banquet Manager provided to you by your site is employed by your reception site. They will ensure that your reception runs smoothly while you are at the venue. They are employed by the reception site and not by you personally and are limited to what services they can extend to you.

A Day of Coordinator (DOC) is employed by you solely and will work with you during the entire duration of planning and will be with you from the moment you wake up in the morning to the moment you lay to rest at the end of your special day. We will be the point-person for yourself, guests, and vendors should any problems arise. We are capable of being “your brain” for the entire day.
