575. Chapter 569 Ways of giving back love


Liu Wangxue and Xu Qingsong's wedding photoshoot was booked at the studio of Liang Xian's girlfriend Yao Yao.

After graduating from university, Yao Yao opened her own photography studio. At first, she took on shooting jobs for some fashion magazines, or took photos of models and celebrities, and she was somewhat famous in the industry.

Five years ago, a good friend of Yao Yao got married and asked her to help take wedding photos. She had never been exposed to this type of photography before, but since she knew everything about photography and was a good friend of hers, she agreed.

The photos she took were well received. A friend jokingly asked Yao Yao to consider opening a wedding photography studio. She thought about it and thought it would work, so she set up another wedding photography studio.

After several years of operation, it is also very impressive. For example, Yao Yao was asked to take the wedding photos of cousin Xu Qingsong and the wedding photos of the third uncle's son. When Xu Qingsong and Liu Wangxue got married, the first thing his mother and aunt thought of was Yao Yao.

After persuading their elders, Liu Wangxue and Xu Qingsong discussed the series they wanted to shoot while choosing. They had to screen out the seaside resort style, ethnic style, etc. because the location was too far away. It's not very convenient to carry three little ones.

I have to say that choosing based on this criterion is like drawing a circle along the map lines of Beijing and selecting only those within the circle.

The other two people didn't want to rush to the location in a hurry. They also wanted to take a look at the location after filming. After all, Liu Wangxue had never been to many of these locations.

Xu Qingsong naturally agreed and said: "That is to shoot one set a day, but the program will be recorded for three days. We have to shoot the other two sets before or after the recording."

Liu Wangxue checked the weather forecast: "Maybe we should schedule it two days before the recording. The weather may not be good later."

So it was decided.

In the end, the two chose five sets of wedding photos, two of which were in Chinese style, two in European style, and one in artistic and casual style.

After making the selection, I immediately contacted the program team. After hearing this, director Zheng Qingchuan said that it was OK. The program has a high degree of freedom. It was already signed in the contract, and the pre-production period was agreed upon. The recordings of the three episodes allowed each pair of guests to make their own arrangements. However, Zheng Qingchuan couldn't bear to miss the entire wedding photo shoot, so he asked the film crew going to Beijing to leave early.

The alarm clock on the phone on the bedside table rang before dawn.

Xu Qingsong stretched out his arm from the quilt, fumbled to turn off the alarm clock, turned around and hugged Liu Wangxue into his arms, paused for a few seconds to relieve his sleepiness, and turned on the gentle wake-up service. : "Xuxu, get up."

Liu Wangxue said "hmm" and didn't move.

Xu Qingsong kissed her and turned on the bedside lamp.

When the lights came on, Liu Wangxue felt a little dazzling and buried her face in Xu Qingsong's arms.

Xu Qingsong looked at her and smiled, then turned on the main switch, and all the lights in the bedroom and the bathroom came on.

Xu Qingsong got out of bed first, put on his slippers, then turned around and picked up Liu Wangxue: "Wash up."

Liu Wangxue tried her best to open her eyes: "Okay, I'm awake."

Liu Nanshan and Gu Xuelan got up earlier than them. As soon as they sat at the dining table, they saw them changing clothes and coming out. , he said hello and had something to eat quickly.

I woke up early and feared that I would lose my appetite, so Liu Nanshan simply made some sandwiches and used a wall breaker to make some rice cereal.

Liu Wangxue ate half a piece and drank less than half a bowl, which was a little cushion, because the clothes she was going to wear for the photo shoot were quite tight, and she was afraid that her belly would protrude after eating too much, which would not look good in the photo. , and also added work to the retoucher.

After breakfast, Liu Wangxue and Xu Qingsong said goodbye to the three little ones, and Liu Nanshan sent them and Gu Xuelan downstairs.

Gu Xuelan went with her, and Xu Qingsong's mother Meng Wanqing and aunt Kong Shimin were also there. The three mothers were worried about their children, so they went along because they wanted to help if anyone needed help. Of course, they had nothing to do. Let's go have fun together. Kong Shimin drove to pick up Meng Wanqing, and everyone met directly at the filming location.

A small photography team led by Yao Yao was already waiting outside the community, and the program team's car was also there. Because it was not the official recording time, they did not go up to install the camera.

Liu Wangxue, Xu Qingsong and Gu Xuelan walked out and got into the car of Yao Yao Studio, which had already installed the film crew's GoPro. After getting in the car, the makeup artist started applying makeup to the two newlyweds.

The place we want to go to today is the Ancestral Temple. We set off early to avoid traffic jams and arrive at the opening time in the morning, all in order to grab this ray of morning light.

The Imperial Ancestral Temple in Beijing began to offer wedding photo shooting services five years ago. It also provides couples with a special shooting lounge where they can put on makeup, change clothes, etc. However, the ticket price is definitely much more expensive than ordinary tourist tickets, including two newcomers and four accompanying staff, a total of one thousand and two thousand. Mothers like Gu Xuelan and the others can just buy ordinary tourist tickets. The variety show film crew informed the Taimiao management in advance and obtained filming permission.

Not long after Liu Wangxue and the others entered the lounge, two new couples arrived. Because of the rise of the national trend in the past two years, national style photography and the like are quite popular.

Yao Yao urged the makeup artist to quickly finish the remaining eye makeup and lip makeup. On the other hand, she asked the staff to hang up the clothes to see if there were any wrinkles. If so, iron them quickly. .

Liu Wangxue glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw that there were almost seven or eight sets. But the makeup artist was putting on lip makeup for her, and she couldn't make a complete mouth movement, so she asked vaguely: "Aren't you taking a photo? Why did you bring so many clothes?"

Ms. Xu Qingsong's makeup It's very simple, it's done. He understood it instantly when he came over and saw the smiles on the faces of his mother, aunt and mother-in-law. Not only for Liu Wangxue, but also for himself, he sighed with sympathy.

Sure enough, the next moment he heard his mother say: "Be prepared."

Gu Xuelan then said: "Come over later and compare, wear whichever outfit looks best."

Kong Shimin said: "We, Xu Xu, are naturally beautiful, and I think we look good in any outfit."
>
Xu Qingsong couldn't agree more, so he didn't expose their little thoughts, smiled secretly, and decided to cooperate.

After putting on makeup and changing clothes, the morning light outside was just right, so the group hurriedly walked out and arrived at the square in front of the temple.

Liu Wangxue's dress is red, with one shoulder and a very tight waist. It is wrapped all the way to the bottom of the buttocks, and then spreads out in a fishtail shape. The skirt at the back is long and touches the floor. The skirt is embroidered with rose branches from the left waist to the crotch and then to the right leg. Roses made of red gauze are sewn at the spread of the skirt, and they bloom in layers to the end of the skirt.

It was still a bit cold outside in the morning in April. She originally planned to wear a warm base layer underneath her skirt when she saw it was so long, but she didn't expect that once she put on the base layer, the skirt couldn't be pulled up, so she had to give up. When I walked out of the lounge door with a thick coat on my upper body, the cool morning breeze blew, making my legs tremble.

Xu Qingsong held the bouquet in one hand and put his other hand around Liu Wangxue's waist, intending to help her block the wind.

Liu Wangxue looked at his three-piece suit and expressed his yearning: "I envy you so much~" The last part of the sentence was a little trembling.

Xu Qingsong felt sorry for her: "If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have chosen a skirt. If I had, I should have chosen something looser."

Liu Wangxue intended to use jokes to dispel the coldness: "I thought you would say you wanted to change clothes with me, hahaha..."

Xu Qingsong imagined the scene and said, "I think the way your skirt looks on me is exactly the same as the expression on my mother's face after seeing it."

"What expression?" Liu Wangxue asked.

Xu Qingsong replied: "Cracked."

Liu Wangxue: "Hahaha..."

The staff behind Liu Wangxue who helped lift Liu Wangxue's skirt couldn't bear it I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

After taking pictures in the square in front of the temple, changing angles and postures for a long time, Yao Yao finally shouted "That's it."

Liu Wangxue jumped twice immediately. Firstly, he felt that the shooting was finished, and he thought about taking off his makeup and resting, then strolling around the Ancestral Temple, and then going out to eat. Secondly, he felt cold. , jumping around can keep you warm.

Xu Qingsong quickly unbuttoned his suit, took it off and put it on Liu Wangxue's shoulders. Liu Wangxue, still holding the bouquet in both hands, let go of the front of his suit and raised his head. Looking at Xu Qingsong, he smiled very beautifully: "It's so warm."
Xu Qingsong lowered his head and approached her: "You don't have to envy me now, and you don't have to think about changing clothes with me, right?"

Liu Wangxue pretended to be a little regretful: "I didn't expect it, it should be like this. Shoot, at least the upper body can be kept warm.”

"You two, look at the camera -" Yao Yao suddenly shouted.

After hearing this, the two of them turned their heads and looked over like a conditioned reflex, and saw Yao Yao frantically pressing the shutter. The three mothers on the side looked at them lovingly. Liu Wangxue praised: "Yao Yao is so dedicated!" She caught all the unexpected shots.

Xu Qingsong took the opportunity to praise her: "It must be because you are so beautiful at the moment."

Liu Wangxue shook his head: "No, it's because you are so handsome and have a boyfriend. ”

Xu Qingsong turned to look at her: "Should you change..."

Before she finished speaking, Yao Yao shouted to them again: "Go back and change clothes quickly! You can take advantage of the light now." , another group!”

Liu Wangxue was stunned. For a moment, he thought he heard it wrong and asked Xu Qingsong: "What did she say?"

Xu Qingsong repeated: "Take another set."

Liu Wangxue thought it was impossible: "No Have you finished filming?”

Xu Qingsong bent down and picked up her princess, and trotted towards the lounge: "Quick, grab the light of day!"

Liu Wangxue exclaimed, subconsciously reaching out to hug his neck and shoulders. The suit fell down.

As soon as Yao Yao raised her head and saw this scene, she raised her camera again to take pictures. The camera crew of the program team on the side suddenly moved with the machine and ran after Xu Qingsong. When the staff saw that Yao Yao had finished filming, they ran over to pick up her clothes and sprinted towards the lounge.

Back in the lounge, the staff handed the clothes to them. Xu Qingsong’s was still a suit, and Liu Wangxue’s dress was also mainly red. There was no need to change her makeup. She didn’t have time to speak. , Xu Qingsong, who took the clothes, pulled him towards the changing room.

This group changed locations and took advantage of the last ray of morning light to finish the photo.

Liu Wangxue put on Xu Qingsong's suit jacket and walked back. Just as she was about to ask him, she saw three mothers approaching.

Gu Xuelan stuffed a cup filled with hot water into Liu Wangxue's hand to warm her hands, saying that it contained glucose and asked her and Xu Qingsong to drink some in a while. Meng Wanqing put the coat in her hand on Xu Qingsong. Kong Shimin held chocolate in her hand and gave one piece to Xu Qingsong. She peeled the other piece and fed it to Liu Wangxue. The questions that Liu Wangxue wanted to ask were dismissed by the cold words and warm greetings.

So I didn’t have to think about the next step. I went back to the lounge to eat something, changed my makeup a little, and then went to take a photo of a Tang suit style. After having lunch and resting, I went to take pictures of a white wedding dress, and in the evening I took advantage of the daylight to take a picture of a cheongsam style.

On this day, Liu Wangxue visited all the places open to the outside for photography in the Ancestral Temple.

Yao Yao was particularly satisfied. On the way back, she kept looking at the photos in the car, praising them while looking at them.

Liu Wangxue leaned in Xu Qingsong's arms and asked Yao Yao feebly: "My distinguished photographer, tell the truth, are you planning this for the next few days?"

Yao Yao smiled apologetically: "Hey, I'm paid to do things, so of course I have to follow the arrangements."

Liu Wangxue raised his head and glanced at the man who was very stable both mentally and physically. Xu Qingsong: "Tell me, are you an insider?"

Xu Qingsong shook his head: "I swear, I'm not, I didn't!"

Gu Xuelan was sitting next to Yao Yao looking at the photos: "This is so beautiful. Qingsong's mother, aunt, and I all thought it would be a pity not to take more photos, so we arranged it this way."

Liu Wangxue turned around and called Gu Xuelan: "Mom, I want to go on strike!"

Xu Qingsong hugged her: "I support you. If you still do this tomorrow, we will run away."

Liu Wangxue raised her hand and poked his heart: "Then why don't you run away today?"

Xu Qingsong held her hand and kissed her: "Today is my first time, and I will have experience tomorrow."

Gu Xuelan smiled and reassured them: "There will be no such thing tomorrow. It’s okay, at most two sets of clothes.”

Liu Wangxue snorted.

I still got up early the next day, and the location I went to was the corner tower of the Forbidden City. I shot the scene across the moat. The weeping willows and other trees along the river had sprouts, and the bright morning light showed the gentleness of spring. scene.

The makeup, hair, and clothing of Xu Qingsong and Liu Wangxue are also matched to this mood as much as possible.

This is the only view of the corner tower, so as Gu Xuelan said, I took two sets of clothes.

After the filming, she returned to the car, took off her makeup and changed into her own clothes, and Yao Yao left with her team. The three mothers also wanted to leave time for them, so they went back. They made an appointment to have lunch first, then go shopping, and then drove away.

Xu Qingsong and Liu Wangxue asked the filming director if they wanted to film the next one.

Nod to the director of the shoot: "Director Zheng said they all have it."

Okay, the two of them discussed where to go for lunch, and Liu Wangxue said: "How about going to the Master Where can I eat boiled mutton? I’m going to film it anyway, so I’ll advertise it to Qingji.” He then asked the filming director, “Is that okay?”

The filming director nodded, of course. , that is a very famous Qingji in Beijing and even the whole country! It was filmed in all the national food documentaries back then!

Xu Qingsong took his cell phone and called his uncle to inquire first. After getting permission, he took a taxi with Liu Wangxue.

After eating, the two of them had a sudden idea, so they took a taxi to the game city and played there all afternoon.

The location we visited on the third day was a leisure district full of literary and artistic colors. Both of them were dressed in a literary and casual style, so they could take a stroll after filming here.

On the fourth day, we went to the north of Beijing. There is a small river called Sangyu. The riverside is full of green grass and the banks are full of yellow and orange wild flowers. Here we take European-style photos. wedding photos.

The three mothers also prepared a picnic with food and drink, enough for the photography team and the program team, and it could also be used as a prop for taking photos.

We stayed here until the evening, when the sun had set halfway and fog suddenly appeared by the river. Yao Yao encouraged Liu Wangxue and Xu Qingsong to put on their clothes and take another set of photos. The film is indeed very beautiful. Liu Wangxue feels that it has the feeling of being in the movie "Pride and Prejudice".

On the last day, we went to a very famous castle-themed hotel in Beijing. Its main castle was built based on the prototype of the castle in country F. The east and west annex buildings were also designed after the style of King F’s palace. The entrance There are rows of Baroque-style arches everywhere, and there is a full romantic style everywhere.

This was originally one of the wedding venues given by the three mothers, but in order to advertise Liang Xian’s hot spring resort, Liu Wangxue and Xu Qingsong chose it, but they ended up taking wedding photos here. .

After taking the photo, I stopped by the hotel club to play a round of golf. Unexpectedly, I met Shi Xi inside, and was then invited by Shi Xi to attend the evening lakeside barbecue with his new friends. .

At this point, the first session of recording is over.

After the wedding photos were taken, Liu Nanshan and Gu Xuelan returned to their hometown. Although the wedding was not held in their hometown, they still had to greet their relatives, friends and neighbors there. They went back to clean up the house first and did everything they needed to do. manage. In addition, I don’t want to affect the two children’s filming of the show. It is a love drama. The audience wants to see the two of them falling in love, so there is no reason for their parents to be present.

For this filming, because Liu Nanshan and Gu Xuelan were present, the program team was considerate and did not install a camera in the residence. Anyway, there was enough material for five days of outdoor shooting.

When their parents returned to their hometown, Liu Wangxue and Xu Qingsong took their three little ones back to Taojiacun. They wanted to shoot the second phase in Taojiacun.

I still drove back by myself, but I still took a turn on the road and went to Haishi, because the two of them had not tried on their traditional wedding clothes yet.

Wenxi was even more anxious than the two of them. He called Xu Qingsong several times to urge him, saying that if he didn’t try, it would be too late to make changes if something wasn’t right.

Liu Wangxue still pretended not to know, but the moment she saw the real thing, she was genuinely surprised.

Xu Qingsong felt that he really understood her. Watching Liu Wangxue try it on, he felt extremely satisfied. This was his favorite way of repaying love. (End of this chapter)
