Finding the best wedding photographer may not be an easy job because trust me, it's either the BEST photographer is fully booked on the wedding date OR aku ni cerewet nak mamps. Hahaha!
When I started planning for the wedding months back, most of my friends advice on not to find a wedding photographer too fast too furious, like chop chop confirm pay deposit kinda thing. Coz why? Later you menyesal seumur hidop.
After numerous emails and whatsapp messages, I as usual narrowed down to just 3 wedding photographers. At first, I wanted a female photographer because i feel much more comfortable and not feel to awkward or shy. Ok la actually i ni pemalu orangnye, especially with man and feels so funny to pose in front of someone that I don't really know well. Hahaha, even with Sid. I'm learning to pose more infront of sid coz you know nanti hari kahwin posing sama je. And Sid really NEED to learnt how to make more facial expression. If there are such classes, i'm willing to sponsor him to go. He need it la really! Hehe
I am one organised freak who need to write on papers so that I can visualize and chunk it in my brain. I don't know why but I can't just save in on my tab or make an excel spreed sheet and look abit more canggih right? Sad life! So, I wrote down the different packages from the 3 wedding photographers and made a comparison on the pros and cons. Sid on the other hand, is in charge on the budget wise and ensuring me that these 3 are the best photographers in Singapore. Ok let me tell you one sad story of my life when i'm on my verge on finding the best photographers.
I stumbled upon,
NuruddynAF Photography (NAF)
Before I say anything, please enjoy the pictures below and start drooling.
BEWARE, pictures are indescribable.

Tolong tolong, lap kan ai liur yang meleleh tu, thank you very much. The pictures were beyond my expectation, it was too beautiful that I instantly emailed them for 2014 quotation. But............ sadly to say, they are booked on my wedding date. My mood change like sonic, I was already looking forward about the pre wedding shoot like where should we go and We will have the best wedding pictures in the world but itu semua ada la hayalan semata mata. Hahahaha, so drama as usual.
To 2015 BTB who are still looking for wedding photographers, jgn malu jgn segan just email them.
On a happy side, We did secure a wedding photographer with the none other than
I remember reading a BTB blog and saw the pictures by Once upon images. So maha cantek lor, just the way I want it to be :) The man behind all this beautiful creation is none other than Raihan, the founder of OUI. Actually right this Raihan here look abit like Fandy Razak, the winner for The Big Shot 2. He is also one of the best wedding photographer you should consider (Studiodua boutique photography). Doesn't matter if he look like fandy razak or shah rukh khan or my bestfriend's cousin coz most importantly is, He is one funny chill laid back rilek one corner kind person but full of energy when explaining to us about the packages. Sid and I felt like we were talking to a long lost friend. Hahahaha.
We exchanged a few emails and he told me that slots are limited for end of next year, so I panic at the disco already la kan! Nak CST tk dpt, nak NAF pon tk dpt. Ni kalau tk dpt jugak, kempunan mak. Hahaha, before I knew it, we are already at his office which was located at Ubi. This Raihan eh I tell you is one very nice guy, he bought for us a drink when we met him. So nice for whattttt.
He shared with us on how he start this line and gave ideas on the places for pre wedding shoot Ni part dia recommand coz I think our pre wedding idea was abit pelik tapi benar kinda thing. Hahaha, but hey his ideas was fantastic okay! He even asked how we met! Hahaha, tu panjang cerita jgn ckp la kan.

I is so suka with the pictures! Teehehehe. It took just just ONE day, let me repeat ONE day to seat down and discuss on the photographer. We were already saying about " this is the one b, this is the one" the moment we step out of his office. Hahahahaha, too fast too furious I see there. But yes la, Onc Upon Images is THE ONE that we chose. And and and we got a really good deal when we signed up for the package coz they were having a promotion !
Since the promotion was so irresistible, we signed up for both wedding photgraphy & cinematography. On top of that, there will be a 2 hour complimentary pre wedding shoot. Amaciam, barang baik kan? Hehehe.
Seal the deal :)
As for now, we are done with most of the major wedding vendors expect for berkat & wedding cake. Will update on that too soon! hehe
