Shooting this set of Nepalese travel wedding photos was an adventure for me. When I first arrived in Nepal, I "picked up" a backpacker named Yaxian, who later became our "stylist"; I was both the newlywed and the photographer. For the photos that I appeared in, I used a tripod and wireless shutter. Another backpacker we "picked up" on the road, named Xiao Wu, had never touched a single-lens reflex camera before but showed interest in photography. After a half-hour "course" training from me, he became our second camera position. Throughout the process, everyone enjoyed their respective roles and left behind precious memories. In my eyes, travel wedding photos are stories that offer profound lessons. New couples shooting travel wedding photos often don't stick to the traditional wedding photo model. They capture a set of local, natural, and truly spontaneous wedding photos while traveling. For me, the focus of travel wedding photos lies in the journey, and the beauty captured in the photos also originates from the journey. This is my favorite shooting method. The unpredictable factors during the trip can test whether the photographer has enough travel experience. Such life experience undoubtedly provides much help in dealing with unexpected events during the journey.
