首先，要感謝我的英國朋友，沒有他，我無法完成我的歐洲自助婚紗。
雖然早就決定好在蜜月時要挑戰自助婚紗，但開始行程之後，每天都覺得好累，一度有想偷懶，乾脆把這件事拋諸腦後，也不管我用了半個旅行箱的空間塞進一件小婚紗帶到歐洲。是我朋友兩肋插刀的從曼徹斯特開了五小時的車來到倫敦，才讓這件事發生了!!
First of all, I would like to thank my dear friend, Dilder. Without his help, I couldn’t accomplish the wedding photography in Europe by ourselves. Although I’ve decided to do it during honeymoon, but we almost wanted to give it up after tiring traveling. It was my friend who spent five hours driving from Manchester to London made the thing happened!!
停好車之後，我們先在西敏宮前拍拍。
After car parking, we took some photo shoots in front of Palace of Westminster.
據我朋友說，是想把倫敦公車也拍進來。
My friend wanted to capture the bus into the picture.
然後我拎著裙擺，走到了西敏橋上。
Then I held the train, and walked onto Westminster Bridge.
轉向大笨鐘的方向，因為大笨鐘那條人行道進行拍片管制，所以我們只能在倫敦眼這裡拍。Turned to the Big Ben side.The pavement near Big Ben was access controlled due to filming, so we could only walk across.
戴上頭紗
With the veil on.
沒想到拍立得意外地成功！
Surprisingly, the Polaroid pictures were totally successful.
回到我們住的 Liverpool street，富有英倫風味的紅磚屋。
Drove back to Liverpool street, like the British brick houses.
幕後故事 Behind the scenes
結束了上半天的行程，我朋友也差不多到倫敦要接我們去拍婚紗了。回飯店換上婚紗，懶得補妝了，帶來的假睫毛和電捲棒都沒有派上用場，決定走一個極簡自助婚紗的風格，我是這樣走出飯店的……
After we finished Tower Bridge tour, came back to hotel and waited for my friend to pick us up for the wedding photography. Put the wedding dress on , didn’t want to redo makeup, and also gave up false eyelashes and curling iron. This was how I looked when I walked out the hotel, as simple as it could be.
白紗外套一件襯衫，白紗內的牛仔褲沒有脫，以為可以很快拍完，然後再繼續遊玩。
Just put on a shirt over the wedding dress, and still wore the jeans inside it. Thought we could finish taking the pictures in no time, and go on a sightseeing tour with my friend.
然後到了拍攝景點，試圖擺出各種自然的姿勢。
Trying to pose naturally when we started shooting.
這個讚不是 pose,而是每照完一張我都會問我朋友照得好不好? OK了嗎?
That was not what I wanted to pose. Actually I asked “Is the picture good ?” or “Are we done?” after every shoot.
當然，也有這樣的漏網鏡頭。
Such a blooper like this…
來到了西敏橋上，在倫敦眼這側比較順利，因為靠近橋畔，走動的人不多，所以幾張照片就完成了。
We finished taking pictures very soon on London eye side, cause the place we stood was close to the edge of the bridge, not many people walked there.
轉向大笨鐘這側就沒這麼好運了，好多人從我們身邊經過，還有一位街頭藝人不斷打擾我們。Toward the BigBen side, we were not as lucky as just now. Many people walked by , and a busker kept bothering us…
在人群中，我整個也是非常尷尬想要趕快拍完，但無奈人很多，實在不好取景。這邊要講一下我的頭紗，我發現包頭一綁起來，其實還頗像新娘頭的耶?!頭紗我是直接把角角塞進髮圈內了，有夠方便，反正背面看不到。
I was quite embarrassed in the crowd. Wanted to make it done quickly, but it was hard to find a good timing taking pictures.I found out the hair bun I made is quite similar with the bride’s hairdo?!I tucked the veil into hair band, very convenient. After all you can’t see the back.
然後我們也想要搞一下浪漫，拍個蓋頭紗的相片，發現容易引人側目也很難成功。
We were trying to take some romantic pictures like this, it was not easy indeed, and caught people’s eyes.
結束了西敏的拍攝之後，本來還打算到倫敦塔橋拍的，但塔橋周邊不好停車，而且時間也晚了，畢竟朋友還得再開一趟回曼徹斯特，我們就直接回飯店了。倫敦自助婚紗要是沒有朋友從曼徹斯特跑來逼我們，我們也沒機會做這件事了，而這也間接促成了巴黎自助婚紗的拍攝，在巴黎的拍攝，才是真的靠自己的自助婚紗，我們就下篇再分享囉!
We didn’t accomplish the wedding photography as we planned at Tower Bridge after we finished Westminster. There was no parking space, and it was kinda late. My friend still needed to drive back to Manchester, so we came back to hotel.We couldn’t make it if my friend didn’t come to push us , and it also indirectly brought the wedding photography in Paris about. Wedding photos taken in Paris were truly “Do it by ourselves”. We’ll share with you next time!
