Engagement Sessions

Paolo and Issa | Avant at The Fort, Taguig Engagement Session

Paolo and Issa booked us at the Getting Married Bridal Fair last January 2019. Talk about “three time’s a charm”, Pao and Issa took, not one, not two, but three roam-arounds before they decided to book us. Kayle was nervous (oh, those pretty rare times my wife gets this feeling), discussing everything to them, with Pao, having the serious and stern look at her, with his arms crossed across his chest. Imagine: Tony Stark or Doctor Strange, giving you that questioning look. Come their Engagement Session, that stern look of Pao was nowhere to be seen! Issa was all smiles, while their bundle of joy, Lance, was all jealous and hyperactive! I remember asking them to “Say something expensive!”, and their response got me caught off guard…they both said RAINWALKER, in full conviction! Here’s the full set of their E-session Photos. A home-y and warm one, from us at Rainwalker Photography.

Engagement Sessions

Cris and Hannah | Munting Gubat Engagement Session

Crisostomo and I share something in common: we proposed to our significant other in a very, very discreet manner. For me, it was with Kayle’s dad, while for him, it was with Hannah’s mom – we did not propose directly to our significant others, but to their parents! Like literally...

Ronald and Kathlyn | A Harry Potter-inspired UST Engagement Session

POTTERHEADS UNITE!!! Here’s our take at a Harry Potter-inspired Engagement Session! A little backstory: Ronald and Kathlyn booked us at the Getting Maried Bridal Fair, last January 2019. Topz, my co-Nikon Pilipinas group member, connected us with them, they checked our work online, they visited our booth and that day, they booked us for probably one of the HOTTEST wedding dates this year! (We had to decline 7 inquiries for Ronald and Kathlyn’s wedding date). Both of them are Potterheads (well, actually bookworms; the Rowling and Riordan type!), and I got totally excited when they decided to have a Harry Potter-inspired Engagement Session. Looking for a location proved to be a challenge. Good thing, Kayle and Kathlyn are both UST alumni. That moment, everything fell into place – Hogwarts x Espanya, it is! See the full set of their magical prenup at the heart of U-belt. Oh, and don’t worry, even Lord Voldemort APPROVES!

Engagement Sessions

Delson and Edil | Taguig Engagement Session

Delson and Edil are my college batchmates in PUP. They booked us at the Before I Do Bridal Fair Series last November, 2018. They wanted something simple for their engagement session – more than what you usually see in our portfolio – so we took it as a challenge to see how far we can go with an AirBNB booking, and a night stroll around BGC. Talk about an afternoon park walk, a pint of their favorite Cookie’s and Chocolate ice cream, and a neon-lit, La-La-Land-inspired night stroll, here’s the full set of their engagement session photos.

Engagement Sessions

Andrew and Madonna | Chateau de Tagaytay Engagement Session

Andrew is a man of few words, while Madonna is the exact opposite – bubbly and full of energy. There came a point when I asked both of them to climb a part of Chateau de Tagaytay, which required them to hop on a stepladder. Andrew obliged, with no words, while Madonna…well, let’s just say we heard every curse a Filipina can tell. “Ang hilig mo magpa-akyat no?” (sarcasm) – words that ring in my ears every time I remember that moment with them.

Wedding Stories

Kevin and Ingrid | Sofitel Philippine Plaza, Pasay Wedding

Kevin and Ingrid’s love story is one for the books. I have known the two of them for like forever. Back in highschool, we we’re all under the Special Science Curriculum of Caloocan High, under DOST – that was 18 years ago, if I’m not mistaken. What I love most about Kevin and Ingrid’s Wedding are the surprises, one of which was when Stephen Xander, their son, decided that he will be the one to dress up his dad. But the bigger surprise, was when Ingrid’s Brother, Patrick, made it to the wedding. Just a backstory: Patrick told Ingrid that he will not be able to attend the wedding because of issues with his Green Card. However, Patrick’s US Citizenship Application was approved and he was flying to the Philippines for her sister’s wedding. Come the wedding day, there we’re tears of joy – Ingrid’s family knew nothing, not even a hint!

Wedding Stories

RL and Kath | St. Ignatius de Loyola, Camp Aguinaldo Wedding

It was during our very first bridal fair (Save the Date), when we met Kath’s family, namely Daddy Mike, Mommy Violeta and James. Daddy Mike honestly told us these words: “You are professionals, and you’ve been doing this a long time. All I want are good photos for my daughter’s wedding.”. That moment, we we’re up for the challenge! Little did we know, the groom, RL, is Senator Rodolfo Biazon’s Grandson! Come the wedding day (the first time we met RL and Kath), I took the liberty and told Daddy Mike: “Daddy Mike, pusta ko, iiyak ka mamaya.”, and he replied: “Pag ako hindi naiyak sa ganda ng photos, ikaw ang iiyak sa akin.”. Challenge after challenge after challenge, we gave our best foot forward and made RL and Kath’s Wedding Story an amazing one.

Eric and Joan | BGC + Pasig Engagement Session

Eric is a Quality Control Engineer. Joan is an architect. Popoy and Basha, as you may want to call it. Fitting with their professions, we decided to shoot at BGC (with it’s buildings and textures as backdrop) and at one of Joan’s architecture projects in Pasig.
