Jakarta - Day 4 - Prewedding Photos

Models may seem to have an easy job. All you have to do is look pretty for the camera right? After going through a day of prewedding photos, I can say that its quite tiring. The day started at about 7am with makeup and a test photo shoot in the garden at Vita’s parents house.

Afterwards we got into a car, and went to the University of Indonesia. We did about 3-4 different sets. A couple by the lake, and a more casual set in the grass.

From there we went to the Betawi Cultural Village. Indonesia is made up of many different cultural groups, Betawi is one of the smaller groups which settled around the area now known as Jakarta. After a lunch break at a local restaurant (Had Soto Betawi, basically chicken soup Betawi style), we did a few more photo sets.

Although distance wise our next location wasn’t very far, it took us about two hours or so to get there with all the traffic we ran into. It was getting pretty late in the day when we finally got to Kota Tua (Old City). We managed to get a few more sets done in the fading light, before we finally called it a day.

We had quite a bit of fun although it was quite tiring and hot. We had a pretty big set of costumes ranging from casual to formal, and from traditional/historical to modern. Photos from that day are in the Gallery on this site.
