Xu Xingwen, a 22-year-old girl from Nanjing city in eastern China's Jiangsu Province, had her "wedding photos" taken alone, at the city's Milan Wedding Photography Studio. This was the last wish of the girl, who is dying from leukemia and has decided to donate her organs after death to help save other people's lives, a local newspaper called Xian Dai Kuai Bao reports.

Moved by the girl's story, Milan Studio not only took her photos for free, but also sent their best makeup artist and photographers to make Xu Xingwen the "most beautiful bride in Nanjing."
