Kelly and Gigi – The Henry Hotel Prenup
I was so excited when Kelly called me up asking for a time to meet regarding my services, I’m always giddy when a batch mate is on his wedding preps journey and it was also a great time to catch up. Very happy too that he found a beautiful and loving partner in Gigi, because somehow deep inside I would wish for a fellow classmate to end up in a good marriage. Funny thing though they are sort of opposites, I’ve known Kelly as the quiet type during our high school days, and I found out during the shoot that Gigi is the kind of person who reaches out, so…

Wild Ride
Usually a conversation would go like this: Friend: Where did you go last weekend? Me: Butuan! Friend: Oh, is it nice over there? Me: Yes! I loved my trip, it was full of great experiences. Friend: Really? What’s your favorite? Me: Other than the food, the sights and the road trips? My favorite is the WALL OF DEATH! And that, is usually followed by raised eyebrows, blank stares, dropped jaws, or sparkly eyed excitement! If you haven’t seen a wall of death, then you haven’t seen crazy at it’s finest. Below are photos of one of the nights I was in Butuan where our host brought us to the local…

Rainy Chores
The weather has a way of surprising us lately, in the mornings it will be hot and then in the afternoon it will be cold and wet. But as much as it is an inconvenience to most people, it also allows some interesting and charming humor.

Are You Rain Ready?
Rainy days have always been a challenge when we shoot prenups outdoors, we have to take care of our couples, our gears and ourselves. A little rain won’t be much of a problem, but yesterday halfway through our shoot the sky really poured. There’s no denying the possibility of a little (or a lot of) bad weather these coming months, so here’s some tips if you really want to have your prenup in a park or in a field or anywhere else outdoors. 1. BRING UMBRELLAS, preferably a clear see through or a plain colored one, make it big so it covers the two of you. It offers the photographer…

Family and Finance – A Family Ministry Event
Handling finance whether as a single, or in a family is such a basic need, but surprisingly a lot of us lack the knowledge of it, that is why most of the time the subject of money becomes a cause of tension in a marriage which in extreme cases leads to extreme debt and sometimes divorce. That is why working on this skill and learning from others are important steps in taking care of your family and your future. CCF Family Ministry launched for the first time a talk combining the topics of Family and Finance to a crowd of 1000 attendees. This will be a yearly event that is…

John Maxwell in Manila
It was a great opportunity to cover a speaking engagement of none other than John Maxwell, someone who I look up to and whose books have inspired me. What makes this event special is the context behind it. In a rare occasion John Maxwell delivers his talk in Manila in front of one of the largest gathering of police, military and agents along with their respective leaders, a branch of the government that holds a strong leadership potential. With the presidential elections coming up, the need to find an excellent and authentic leader is ever more crucial. John reminds his listeners of the need to be intentional in leading one…

Insert a little bit of playfulness between the two of you, and it will be like a fertilizer that will make your love grow. Shot in Anvaya Cove, Subic

Derrick and Darlene – The Henry Hotel Manila
December is usually busy season for wedding photographers, but last year I was glad that me and my wife were able to find a day during the busy season to get away from all the busyness. We found this nice place called The Henry Hotel Manila, a quaint hotel with lush trees and post modern style houses renovated to have hotel rooms, details that are a mix of modern and vintage styles and a rich history that come along with it, it was the perfect place to escape to that is not too far. I wanted to just rest but my wife had planned a little activity for our stay,…
