Looooooooooong overdue post, here are the photos of Laurence and Des, medyo maulan but we did manage to get our shots. We so love Hortpark, too bad nga lang because of the rain but Jo Anne and I we’ll go back there again (pag may pagkakataon). It was nice to meet Des and Laurence too, who were very kind and accommodating. Here are some of the photos:

Woooooooooohooooooooooo! Our excursion (este prenups pala) at Villa Escudero. It was more of an out of town pasyal trip than the regular engagement shoot. We had a blast! Puro tawanan at kulitan lang the whole day. Jo Anne and I really enjoyed their company. One of the best, pareng Billy and Mareng Andre! On our way to Batangas, my Tatay rode with us. Click sila ni Andre because of the KSA experience. We all laughed our hearts out with the whole lotto craze, grabe ok na rin ako sa 4M if ever! Andre said my dad daw is a natural comic because the jokes were effortless. I must say same with Billy! You guys rock! It’s nice to hear your story too, galing. It was certainly our pleasure to know more about you guys. Anyway, here are some of the photos, enjoy!

Parang surfing lang yan. =)

Location: Bonifacio High Street + UP Diliman
Our first time at Bonifacio High Street, umulan pero we managed to get our shots naman. Ryan and Pam happened to be our neighbors here in Mandaluyong, just a few blocks away lang. Pam is Sheena’s (our bride last February) officemate. And Ryan is the man hehehe! He has a habit to abuse those bottomless drinks as what he did nung nag-lunch kami, ang lakas mo tol! Anyway, since this is in High Street, I tried to play more with photoshop and colors, not the usual natural output from the camera. Shooting at Highstreet is something new for us, FYI, they are couple 1 of 3 that we will be shooting at BHS this September. Here are some of the photos:

XOXO.

Asteeeeeeeeg Ryan.

Yes Pam?

Matt and Abbie were another new gained friends! We got really close during our prenup and our night out/s. Parang we have known each other na for a long time na, kung magkwentuhan at mag-usap kami, super barkada. It’s really cool plus Abbie is now Zeb’s constant texter, naks hehehe! We have learned about their 10 years of togetherness; Matt’s Joey Marquez’ tactics, humor and blood pressure; Abbie’s sweet smiles and kindness. And top them all, we have witnessed their exchange of vows, memorable! Also, our big thank you and appreciation for not just being our clients but our dear close friends. =)

After a go signal from Donna/Kix, and Otep’s request. We are posting our engagement portraits of Kaygee and Otep. Although we are not covering their big day, it was nice to get to know them kahit sa prenups lang. Napaka-cool ng couple na ito, we were also WOWed how Otep pulled off his proposal, nice bro, asteeeeeeeeeeg ka. As for the prenups, we dropped by their college days sa FEU-Fern College then we’re off to Wawa Dam in the afternoon. Here are some of the photos:

Hola! Buenos días! Gracias! Another abroad based couple, Kethel (Spain) and Mark (New Jersey), but we are neighbors here in Mandaluyong ha. They found us online (I love you Internet!). Anyway, we were only asked to do their prenup photos, and they opted to have it at La Luz Beach Resort at Laiya, Batangas. It’s our second time at La Luz but our first on a sunny weather! Ang ganda pala! I must say the beach rocks (and the “rocks” too!) hehe. It’s a long travel but the engagement shoot was all worth it. IT was also nice to get to know more about Kethel and Mark, asteeeeeeeeg kayo!

Wedding Date: August 17, 2008
Preps: Makati Shangri-La
Ceremony: St. Ignatius Cathedral, Camp Aguinaldo
Reception: AFPCOC Hall, Camp Aguinaldo
Hair and Makeup:
Event Stylist: Sunday Cabagay of Kablooms

Here is a short story of the couple: Tito Bobby and Tita Malou (they like to have their names tagged with a “Tito” & “Tita” at hindi “Sir” and “Ma’m” kaya feeling pamangkin tuloy kami hehe) were sponsors on a previous wedding we had this year. We are very thankful to Abby for doing the selling part thing, and nakakatuwa that we’ll be covering another wedding from a successful referral. Anyway, at first, we’re thinking if it’s their 25th or 35th wedding anniv since they told us they are on their 50’s na. And behold to our surprise, this was their VERY FIRST wedding pala. They were both widowed on the first marriage and both had 3 children from the past. It was cool kasi most of their children are on our age so we really felt it was just our parents’ wedding that we were shooting. Anyway, super cool si Tito Bobby and Tita Malou. Tita Malou can be listed as one of the most excited brides ever! Every wedding talk with her was a blast! She’s very keen with the wedding details and was involved 110% in all of the preparations. Tito Bobby naman is our asteeeeeeeeeeg groom, we can name him “Dolphy” in his own class. He can be intimidating at first but had the tons of sense of humor inside him. Btw, incase you missed, here is their prenups, again Tita Malou insisted that they’ll be doing prenup photos like any other present-day-couples do. Kakatuwa kasi who’d thought we’d be in Ecopark-UP-Baywalk doing engagement shoot? Moreover, everything feels so memorable, we’re happy covering the entire celebration. The preps in hotel was “rock-on” fun, the church ceremony was solemn, and the reception party was like a big production number! It’s a must to have a formal then a wacky pose for their crowd hehehe. And everyone had this one big smile before leaving the AFPCOC Hall. Again, our best wishes and congratulations to Tito Bobby and Tita Malou, asteeeeeeeeeeeeeeg po kayo! =)

Another looooooooooooong overdue post, wheeeew due to a very busy schedule we do apologize for the late blog posting. Never too late, Tony and Liza’s engagement shoot was a blast! Asteeeeeeeeeeeeg! It was also a good bonding time spending the day with the couple. Salamat pala sa Vitamin C tip Liza!!! Btw, Jo Anne was very happy to receive a unique Smart mobile number from Tony and Liza, soon we will be using our 09298988888 (asteeeeeeeeeeeeg noh?), hinahanapan pa lang namin ng cellphone since we’re both Globe users hehehe. As for the photos, we sneaked in some Plus photos and I had them post processed in b&w. It was also fun capturing their natural smiles. Enjoy! =)
