To be honest, if I must share their stories, there will not be enough time, not enough words, and not enough space in this blog for me to write about their love. There are a lot from them that I can share, starting from how they met for the first time and the fact that their parents are actually bestfriends, how they posted every single moment of their love life on Instagram and how all their thoughts about love, their motto "Getting Old and Fat Together" that may sounds silly for others, but it showed that their love is to accept each others the way they are. Oh yaa, I will never forget this story... how Michael proposed Mira with rose petals trail from her room leading her to a bowl of indomie on the table at her dinning room (I can't stop laughing when they told us this story), and how they gave each other a surprise at their own wedding by singing to each other a song that they both secretly wrote.
If I must chose one story to share, it will be a very hard decision. Yes it really is hard.
Ya, Michael & Mira is very special to us. They are the first couple who contacted us and to trust us to capture their moments not because our portfolios, or our experience in wedding industry that relatively new at that time but by our passion in doing this and in capturing love itself. I will never forget our first time meeting them, how with their cheerful eyes they told us about their story including their wedding dreams and how they welcomed us like their old friend. And when they shared all their beautiful stories to us, it's always easy for us to really welcomed them as our closest friend as well.
From their eyes we can clearly see that they are full of love and sparks. They trust in each other, they live with each other without any worries, they support each other and see each other in the most positive way. This is the kind of spirit that we want to capture and share but we rarely find it these days.
And that day, on October 12th, 2015, when all of our team stood there on the side of the aisle at Cathedral Jakarta, witnessing them saying their lifetime vow to each other, each of us just silently stared, listening to each word that they said wholeheartedly while they were holdinghands, and how they thanked God for every second they have to love each other.
And these are the pictures that we captured that day. If they said pictures speaks more than the words can say, yes they are indeed, but that day I must admit that we have failed.
We tried to capture all the emotions, the tears, the smiles, the laughter and the happiness of that day, but I must tell you this: what happened that day is much more beautiful then what we are able to capture and show in their pictures.
Congratulations Michael & Mira. Stay in Love deeper and deeper in every single day :)
Love
Artha
