Hidden in the highlands of Bali, Lake Tamblingan is where the forest meets the clouds—and it became the perfect canvas for Akash and Annapurna’s love story. With its mirror-like waters, ancient trees, and dreamy morning mist, this serene lakeside setting made every frame feel like a painting. From barefoot walks on soft earth to quiet glances exchanged on a wooden canoe, their shoot was less about posing and more about presence. Here’s a glimpse into a day where nature and love flowed in sync.

We started before sunrise, hiking through the forest in soft silence, the light slowly filtering through the trees. There’s something sacred about those early hours—when the world hasn’t quite woken up and you can hear your own breath. For Akash and Annapurna, it wasn’t just about the photos. It was about slowing down, taking it all in, and finding joy in the in-between moments.

As the fog rolled across the lake, they stepped into a traditional canoe, hand in hand. No instructions needed—just the rhythm of oars cutting gently through the water, and stolen smiles under layers of mist. It felt like a scene from a forgotten folktale—timeless, quiet, and full of feeling.

What we loved most was how effortless it all felt. They didn’t try to be anything but themselves. Annapurna’s laughter echoed in the stillness, while Akash watched her like he already knew this was going to be one of those memories they’d talk about years from now.

Every frame from this shoot carries that hush—the kind you find in temples and old love songs.

This wasn’t just a pre-wedding shoot. It was a love letter to slowness, to nature, and to everything that’s real and lasting.
