When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.

When life gives you a broken down car on your wedding photo shoot day, immortalise it.

And that's exactly what one Malaysian photographer did.

While these photos may seem like a beautifully-planned rustic photoshoot, here's the catch: It's not.

Car broke down

According to @apihazmi, he and the newlywed couple were on the way to the location of their post-wedding photoshoot when their car broke down along Pekan, Pahang.

Not wanting to waste their time, he made full use of their empty road and field to take these beautiful yet comical wedding pictures.
