(1) Tap Mun

Looking for a carefree spot outdoors? Take a boat from Sai Kung Country Park out across the bay to Tap Mun (Grass Island). Once there take a quick walk headed up to the beautiful coastline that surrounds the island. If you’re feeling extra adventurous, ignore the tape that says “go no further” and explore the paths and cliffs thereafter. The amazing scenery looks more like Cornwall or the East Coast than Hong Kong! In this shoot, Jamie Ousby took advantage of the stunning view and captured equally stunning photos of these soon-to-weds.

 

(2) City Star Ferry Tour

If you live in the city, you don’t really need to go far to find a location for beautiful pre-wedding photos, says Jamie Ousby. The Star Ferry is a Hong Kong icon that has been going for over 100 years, so why not take photos here? You’ll have the cityscape as your backdrop. Jump on in and mix with the locals for photos that have a casual vibe. If you choose the later afternoon for your shoot, you’ll also have the Hong Kong sunset as your companion. Check out this engagement at Star Ferry for some ideas!

 

(3) Clearwater Bay Second Beach

A beach shoot is always a good ideas. So, here’s a quiet and secluded beach a just couple of miles from Hang Hau that you can enjoy and take photos at. The best time to go is midweek–that’s when this place is deserted. There are some lovely areas to discover if you keep walking around. Don’t miss out on the old fishermen’s huts or the rock pools further down the beach, suggests Jamie Ousby. You’ll find some cozy spots that come with a view.

 

(4) Cheung Chau

If you’re looking for a place with various elements to shoot with, miLa Story suggests Cheung Chau. This place will give you a variety of scenes for your photos. For example, you can shoot aback trees and woods form a “corridor” providing depth of view. You can also shoot by the beach, complete with a gorgeous sea view and rock landscapes. Finally, this place is also a nice place to spend the day in.

 

(5) Indoor Activities (at art studio, home-setting studio or couple’s home)

Did you ever consider an indoor location for your shoot? Maybe an art studio, or a home setting? If you’re a laid back couple, an intimate photo session in your home might be just perfect! One pro of such a place is that it’s weather-proof. Shooting won’t be affected by rain or even sweat–you’ll be as comfortable as can be! Throw in some home activities like cooking to make it even more fun. This option is especially great for couples who don’t like posing, cites miLa Story. You can just relax and be yourselves!
