Capturing Stories, Not Just Poses – Eng Siong & Deng Wei’s Pre-Wedding Journey

When Eng Siong and Deng Wei first approached their pre-wedding photoshoot with Chris Ling Photography and Z Wedding, they had simple expectations: take some photos to mark the milestone. What unfolded, however, was a meaningful, story-driven experience they didn’t expect—but will treasure forever.

As many couples searching for pre-wedding photography in Singapore can relate, the process can feel daunting—posing awkwardly, choosing gowns, coordinating makeup, or deciding between a local or overseas shoot. But for Eng Siong and Deng Wei, everything turned out to be smooth and surprisingly enjoyable.

The gown selection process was described as “fuss-free” with a wide variety of elegant options, allowing Deng Wei to pick the perfect look with ease. Their makeup artist Amber ensured Deng Wei looked radiant, even going the extra mile to conceal tiredness and under-eye circles effortlessly—something many brides can relate to. This level of attention and skill is a key reason why couples who prioritize natural yet polished styling opt for Z Wedding's professional makeup services.

As for the shoot itself, Eng Siong admitted to feeling like “a robot” when it comes to photography. Like many grooms, he wasn’t sure how to pose. But thanks to the guidance of the photographer, he discovered a side of himself he had never seen. The poses, angles, and expressions were all carefully directed—an experience that made him feel confident and helped the couple feel genuinely comfortable in front of the camera. It’s this level of care that defines our approach to pre-wedding photoshoots in Singapore.

One particularly heartfelt touch was choosing to shoot at Sheng Siong, the supermarket where the couple first met. It’s not your typical pre-wedding photoshoot location, but it was the perfect choice for telling their love story. The setting was vibrant, nostalgic, and symbolic—a reflection of how Chris Ling Photography tailors every shoot to each couple’s unique journey.

The couple also incorporated mahjong tiles and board games—their shared hobbies—into the shoot, bringing personality and authenticity into the photos. This is what sets us apart as one of the best pre-wedding photographers in Singapore: we don’t just take beautiful pictures—we help craft visual stories that matter.

While many of their friends had opted for overseas pre-wedding shoots, Eng Siong and Deng Wei felt confident about keeping it local because of one core reason—storytelling. They saw in our portfolio that our photos went beyond pretty landscapes. They told stories. And now, when they look at their album in the future—even at 60 or 70 years old—they’ll be able to recount every emotion, every place, and every memory.
