    What Posing Cues Teach Us During Quarantine

    The past few weeks of quarantine is giving me a bad case of cabin fever. I’m starting to talk to my plants now, and they have suggested that I make good use of my time and start archiving my photos and edit my backlogs. You know what, I’m a pretty impressionable guy so I get right to it. So while looking back at some of the wedding photos, especially the moments we pose you for your portrait shots as a couple, I remember the instructions I would coach you for the poses. As I go through each one, I realize that the instructions are teaching me a thing or two…

    Raymond and Genevieve – Tinghun at Crowne Plaza

    It’s always a joy to cover a tinghun, from the simple preparations to the simple setups, it takes away a lot of the stress from the family to “make things perfect”. Sure there are traditions to follow, but being simpler than weddings, family members can focus more on helping each other, spend time chatting while eating, and whether they know it or not, more memorable moments are created. It’s how family celebrations should be. Cakes: Custom Cakes by Bam Hair and Make Up: Krystle Anne Bonus Venue: Crowne Plaza

    Charles and Ilene – Only for You

    Sometimes you have to make the decision to hold on to destiny, even if it will bring you through difficult seasons, that is how you know for yourself what love is. This I see in the eyes of Charles and Ilene as their eyes meet at the wedding aisle, and in the smiles and happy tears of their loved ones around them. This is a wedding that has been a delight to capture, one that overflows with happiness and teaches you to fall in love all over again.

    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:…

    Gijs and Michelle – Encounter with Destiny

    It’s like traveling to different sides of the world when I go from Michelle’s room to Gij’s. But the energy and the reason for laughter is the same. Love ones and family make the day with their presence in their beautiful dresses and suits. But the best thing about it is they all have their smiles ready for the union of two that met in a chance encounter years ago, and decided to never let go, it’s the kind of love story that we all dream about. Find their love story, along with their engagement photos here: Michelle and Gijs – A Meteora Prewedding Gown: Patty Ang Reception: Gloria Maris,…

    Concepts of married life vary like the many colors we see. When these colors come together they make the rainbow, majestic and wonderful, a sign of promise given by God.

    Preview – Kaine and Katt

    I can remember the cool breeze grazing by my arms as I move to position myself right before Katt makes her march, time seems to stop in moments like these. I take the shot, and as I walk fast to my next position, I see Kaine, with a huge smile plastered on his face, it’s so cute I laughed a bit while taking the picture. What followed was an intimate ceremony in the quaint garden of Ville Sommet, happy tears and laughter was all around. I thank God for making me an observer of a beautiful love story. Here are a few photos I’d like to share while I prepare…
