Recently, the wedding photo series of the couple Duong and Phuong, titled "Footprints of Our Past," quickly gained popularity online for the romantic, charming, and distinctly Hanoi-inspired moments captured in each picture. Notably, with the appearance of the "See-Sing-Share" umbrella, Duong and Phuong's wedding photos were even enthusiastically shared by singer Ha Anh Tuan on his personal page.
"Duong & Phuong | The Traces of Our Past" was captured by photographer Thang Nguyen Tu on a day of torrential rain. Hanoi was soaking wet and chilly, but the two lovers remained affectionate, holding hands under a commemorative umbrella from a Ha Anh Tuan concert, slowly strolling past their old meeting places.
Like a romantic stroll through the city center, Duong and Phuong chose West Lake, the University of Hanoi, Mao Bookstore, and the nostalgic pedestrian streets associated with their love story, as well as with the old-fashioned image of the capital.
The Hanoi rain and the unexpected appearance of "extras" made the photo series even more special, as if the intimate moments between the two were captured by someone who happened to be passing by, found it amusing, and decided to record them...
This series of simple photos evokes a feeling of blissful happiness in anyone who loves Hanoi. The streets and shops we've passed countless times, when seen in a different frame, suddenly stir a strange emotion. Perhaps it's because behind each romantic image, captured fleetingly in the ancient city, lies a precious moment shared by the couple.
Each wedding photoshoot by Thang Nguyen Tu tells a story of love between a couple. And this time, in "Duong & Phuong | Traces of Our Past," Thang Nguyen Tu tells the story of two people who love Hanoi, and who love each other.
