Venue: Sheraton Hanoi Hotel
Photographer: Mirror Wedding
The story that the bride and groom Ha – Hoang wants us to tell is the harmony between two independent personalities. However, although the expression seems different, they always gave us the feeling of a clear “one line drawing”.
That emotion was evoked by their gaze, gestures, and respect for each other. At the same time, it also showed the aesthetic taste and lifestyle such as the bride’s special preference for Picasso-inspired details. Or the desire for a simple wedding but must be of a whole emotion, much like the calm personality of the groom.
From there, we had enough materials to help the couple celebrate their sacred and beautiful moments. And their love is the material that made our efforts a valuable “One-line drawing”.
The difficulty of drawing, like planning a wedding, is that if you show just a little, you still have to say a lot. Nothing is more difficult than a brush, says Picasso.
HOW MUCH LINES DON'T MATTER.
THE STORY SPEAKS ITSELF.
WEDDING, PICASSO AND ONE LINE DRAWING
While Picasso was in the park, a woman approached and asked him to paint a portrait of her. Picasso agreed and quickly sketched it out. She was satisfied with the beauty and asked how much she could buy the painting.
Picasso said: $5,000. “But it only took you five minutes,” the woman was shocked. “No ma’am, it took me all my life,” Picasso answered.
Some studies suggest that the influence of Primitivism in the early 20th century caused Picasso to create pictures with simple lines in the last years of his life, even using a single open line: one line drawing. This method of Picasso is still the inspiration for many paintings, architects, cinema … Apple employees had to learn Picasso’s approach in design. Pixar’s Counselor characters in Soul were also inspired by Picasso.
DRAW A LINE, PLANT A TREE, LIVE A LIFE TOGETHER.
Considering this Picasso-style of love story-telling, organizing a wedding party can also be seen as the process of creating a “One Line Drawing” in the wedding – sketching from a complex to a simple interpretation but with great force for visualization.
THEIR OWN STORY
Of course, that drawing must have the power to make the main character and the viewer (the guest) visualize a process, a series of emotions, and most importantly, love. This process begins with ideas and ends with the wonderful combination of details: flowers, candles, pictures, lights, dances, stage, banquet table, eyes, smiles, and tears …
