Korea Destination Photographer | Nadine and Johann Pre Wedding

I never really found Jeju to be an exciting place to have a photo shoot. I thought it would be tropical and look like any other island in the Philippines, but as I found out, I was not always right because Jeju turned out to be as fascinating and diverse as the most interesting places we’ve seen worldwide.

We stayed only four days, yet we were able to shoot eight sets in eight stunning locations around the island. A coffee shop, a grassland, a flower farm, a beach, on a cliff, with a pagoda, among orange trees—you will run out of time, but you will never run out of ideas, especially with a couple as natural and as fun as Nadine and Johann.

I may not be always right, but take me to Jeju and surely the place will always make me take good photos.
