They met one day in China, and fell in love. At the time Lynn was living in the US and convinced Yuanyuan to move there with her. So this year's holiday to Thailand called for some photos of the two of them together. They stopped over in Thailand for a short holiday in Samui and Chiang Mai before going back to China to visit their families and apply for Lynn's yearly student visa in America.
On the day we had scheduled to have their photography session, the weather was less than ideal... I'm talking wind, white skies and scary looking waves and we did talk about the idea of changing to another day, but in the end decided to stick to it, and I'm SO happy they did!
We started off with some photos in and around their resort, the Lipa Bay Resort. I had never been to this little resort, but I loved it's quiet charm, gorgeous landscape of plants and flowers...
Then we headed to the beach for some fun photos, despite the weather!
We thought it would be best to keep the kayak on shore, considering the rough waves and untrustworthy current.
I love how much fun it was to take photos of these two gorgeous girls having fun on the beach in the wind! We laughed so much, hair was flying everywhere and it was nice and cool for a change :)
Haha, I love this photo!
Lynn has this tattoo for Yuanyuan because she's a hairdresser.. I think it's so cute.
Once we had had enough of the beach weather we headed back to their bungalow for a few last photos.
Aaahhhhh, I love these, sometimes I just feel like I'm intruding on such intimate moments... but I love capturing these for my clients!!
More scissors, for the hairdresser! :)
We ended on this note, with them just relaxing in each others' company..
I hope you enjoyed these photos as much as I did creating them! Let me know what you think in the comments below :)
Happy Tuesday!
These are LOVELY! Isn't it funny how sometimes the cloudiest of days can be the BEST days to shoot? Adorable, and I love their story. Keep up the fabulous work - your imagery is POWERFUL.
