1. Gardens by the Bay (East)

The eastern part of the Gardens is a hidden gem, tucked away from the hoards of tourists. Not only will you get peace and quiet while having your portraits taken, there's the added bonus of having the famed Singapore skyline (with the Singapore Flyer!) in the background, which makes an imposing and dramatic backdrop. One way to make it look even better? Aim to have your session during the "golden hour", where you'll get lovely pictures of the sunset, too.

 

 

2. Sentosa

Aiming for a beachside resort-like feel? The pristine beaches at Sentosa - with its soft white sands and cerulean sea is a popular choice for to-be-weds. And with good reason too, I think.

3. Punggol Ranch

The ranch makes the perfect setting for a barn-style photoshoot, with its rustic, laidback charm, and woody elements. If you're a horse aficionado, you can even have your pictures taken with the ranch's majestic four-legged friends.

5. Coney island

Have your own fairytale in the woods at Coney Island - lined with tall and dense trees, gorgeous wooden canopies, and lalang fields. Bring plenty of insect repellant though, as there is an abundance of insects - such mosquitoes and sandflies.

6. Little Guilin

Want photos that look like they were taken with the beautiful rock formations of Thailand or China? Try a photoshoot at Singapore’s very own Little Guilin.

 

 

7. Railway bridges

The abandoned railway bridges at Bukit Timah make a good backdrop for rustic pre-wedding shoots. The best part? You don’t even have to worry about any incoming trains!

8. Upper Seletar Reservoir

Weddings or photos taken under a great oak or lush canopy make such a romantic sight, it's no wonder Upper Seletar's “Apple Tree” is so popular. This is especially so now that the famed Punggol “Instagram Tree” is no longer around.

9. Punggol lalang fields

Punggol is definitely a hidden gem with so many different places for pre-wedding shoots. The Punggol lalang fields is one such location. The soft tendrils of the lalang coupled with great natural lighting - makes this place one of the most Instagrammable venues for your pre-wedding shoot.
