    Michael and Edelyn – A Promise to You

    I don’t know what the statistics are but I find it quite rare for those civilly married for a number of years to still push through with a church wedding. But for Michael and Edelyn, they made a promise to each other that they will one day have their walk down the aisle, make their promise again to each other, this time in the house of God. But they’re not just gonna have that, what a way to get excited for the wedding but to have a prenup as well, which is what they did! Along with their wonderful kids they come in full force for a day of fun…

    Kelvin and Tricia – Zambawood Love – Part 2

    The shade under the pine forest gave us respite from the wicked sun, and the gentle, albeit hot breeze is a welcome guest during the third set of Kelvin and Tricia’s engagement shoot. The scenery provided a wonderful backdrop until the sun decides to be a little kinder. When the sun reached it’s golden hour we started playing again at the beach, same time as the nearby fishermen were raising their nets to call it a day, and after the sun went down we decided to call it a day as well. We enjoy the twilight as we pack up and ready to go home. Hair and Make Up by:…

    Kelvin and Tricia – Zambawood Love – Part 1

    Rainy season has come, and I guess it will be trickier to do beach prenups these coming months. It’s still very hot though so I’m getting mixed feelings about the weather. Who’s up for a trip to the beach? I remember the prenup of Kelvin and Tricia in Zambawood a few months ago though. We went there mid-March but the heat felt like the peak of summer, it was hot! But even that couldn’t do much to bring our energy down. These two were a joy to be with. We were joined by Nelson Aguilar who did a wonderful job on Tricia’s hair and make up, and we were amazed…

    JR and Cristina – Love in the Secret Place

    It is in love that you find such a place not bound by geography. Where anywhere is special as long as you are “With” each other. It is the comforting thought that no matter where you go, you know that at the end of the day, you can always run into the arms of your love and there you will always find rest.

    Marvin and Kim – Ronac Prewedding

    They seem to be the simple type, and their affections somewhat bashful. But I notice their hands always tend to meet halfway, and their smiles always in sync. It’s a love that is strong but doesn’t not scream for attention, the kind that occasionally shows itself to you… if it deems you worthy. I consider myself fortunate, blessed even, to see a bond that reminds me: Love is here, love is now. Make Up Artist: Yami Parungao II Venue: Ronac Art Center

    Davy and Valerie – Love that Moves

    It’s a love story that sends the warmest fuzzies down my spine. Two friends whom we thought would make a good match actually became a good match, good is an understatement, great would be the right term. But while we made the match, it is them who made it work. Davy persistently asked for that first meet, and told Valerie he would only want 15 minutes of her time, it was all the time he needed to make that connection. After that Val had to go back to HK where she lived, to which Davy booked 3 round trip tickets to Hong Kong on the spot and that impressed her.…

    Marc and Jen – Love on a Sunny Day

    This was the one prenup that we had to reschedule because of typhoon Lando, and I’m glad we did. Although we really don’t have full control of the weather, we were thankful that the weather was perfect during the day of the prenup, sun shining down through the trees created such beautiful light. Recently they just tied the knot and are enjoying wedding bliss, so I guess it’s also good time to show some shots of the prenup. Enjoy and have a nice sunny day! Hair and Make Up by Angel Salian I also shared our experience during the morning where we had to decide whether to reschedule the shoot…

    Two Sides of Taal Lake

    I never knew Taal Volcano was such a nice place to do a prenup, even if we had to deal with the heat and the costs of renting a horse it was so worth it. Up to our second set and on our way back, I realized a familiar mountain where I also did a prenup a few years back, so I took a photo for posterity. Now I have prenups on both sides of the lake.

    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…
