One thing that these two really love is Practical Shooting. Dan was the one who encouraged Joanna to try it out, and the rest was history. Our team truly had a smooth time shooting – both with our cameras and their guns.
We waited, and waited, until the green light came (when quarantine restrictions eased), and we made their pre-wedding a reality – of course, with Sofitel as their canvass, since Ivy is part of Sofitel’s Family. Archie’s hesitation still lingered upon us, but when we met him, he was more than eager to be photographed, that he was jumping and running up until our third set!
They were supposed to get married at Paco Church, but decided to move it to some place up north. When the restrictions eased up, they decided to do the pre-wedding in Bulacan (Brent’s Hometown). We were lucky to shoot at the personal garden of Brent’s Aunt and Uncle. We had the chance to shoot a few frames as well at Brent’s place, with their dogs.
Lorenz and Jackie’s engagement session is a good mix of chill vibes and full tummies. They had their first date at Mary Grace Cafe in Makati, so what better place to do their E-session than at the said location. We then headed to Geluk Gentri at Banawe for some afternoon coffee. Finally, to cap the day, we had neon-lit cocktails at Cloak & Dagger, going through the night.
When Viena messaged me about their engagement session, what came to our minds was a concept that was pretty much controversial – a “Fifty Shades” pre-wedding.
Your Wedding Photography Experience BEGINS with your Engagement Session. How do you prepare for it?
We were planning to have their engagement session done in Baguio and Benguet, but the pandemic hit us really hard, making travel a pretty big hassle. We waited until things eased out, but we did not settle for less – with them having a “Filipiniana”-themed engagement session.
Mac proposed to Kate last December of 2020. Now, they’re on their way to saying their I do’s this March of 2021. A short but sweet engagement for these two indeed!
These two met in a very unconventional way – Ten was the lighting contractor hired by Rinnah’s father for their church. On a certain business meeting, Rinnah arrived in a yellow-green car, running over the gutter, towards the parking slot she desired. Rinnah was then introduced by her father to Ten as the “Most Reckless Kid” in the family, but Ten saw her in a different light – he saw determination in Rinnah’s recklessness. Well, first impressions last, right?
Our Subic bride and groom wanted nothing but a chill engagement session, at which, Carla requested for us to shoot at a Ministop branch they own, at the heart of SBMA. With a few chips that got tossed, a few bottles of liquor and softdrinks that got took out of the freezer, we were able to pull off this one-of-a-kind session (And did I mention that I went inside the freezer to shoot?).
