Pre-wedding photoshoot Malaysia by Irvin Studio

Having a pre-wedding photo shoot to some couples is just as important as an actual day wedding photo shoot. This is simply because they are able to pick and choose any exotic, romantic or nostalgic location that they like.

Also, the actual wedding day may be too hectic for a staged photo shoot, so doing one prior to the wedding allows the couple to relax and take their time in posing for photographs that will last a lifetime. 

Malaysia is full of beautiful and scenic locations that provide the perfect backdrop to a romantic photo. Our talented wedding photographers share some of their best portfolios for pre-wedding photo shoots around Malaysia.
