Lennard and Midge’s Tagaytay Wedding
Jeff and I met Midge over Skype and just fell in love with her. You can just feel her friendliness and warmth right away. Some people take some time to be comfortable with, and that’s fine, too. It’s part of our job to make people comfortable around us, and I like to think we do…

Ralph and Paula’s Sydney, Australia Engagement Shoot
There are people you just hit it off with right from the start. Ralph and Paula would be two of those people for us. Paula and I got to email a bit, and since we’ve been friends on both Facebook and Instagram, I’ve been finding out that we love pretty much the same things. Meeting…

Jon and Rachel’s Montecito Wedding
I think it was Jojit, their coordinator, who said that it’s interesting how Jon looks different in photos with Rachel, more carefree and happy, and I get that. We first met them over lunch in Greenbelt, and Jon struck me as someone quiet and serious. But seeing their travel photos and actually taking pictures of…

Nicco and Erica’s Tagaytay Wedding
We remember every single wedding we’ve ever shot. We can tell you our favorite photos from each one, what the weather was like that day, maybe some funny parts, small things about the couple that stood out, and the moments that touched us and/or made me cry. For people with admittedly very bad memory, I…

Kicking Off 2014
Wedding season has been nothing short of wonderful for me and Jeff. I’ve been on an incredible high through most of it, really. We hit the ground running this year, and we’re both so psyched and looking forward to the rest of it. I couldn’t let this month end without sharing a bit of what…

What We’ve Been Up To Lately
The past couple of months have been all sorts of amazing for me and Jeff. We’ve been all around Manila and Tagaytay, and flew to Singapore, Cebu, and Amanpulo for some shoots. We’ll also be heading to Hong Kong in a few days for more. I haven’t been able to find time to blog, but…

Alain and Kathy’s Wedding
As if straight out of a movie, Alain and Kathy met on a flight — he being a pilot, and she a flight attendant. There was wooing, a long distance relationship, and an earlier scheduled wedding that didn’t push through. But things like this, they happen at their most perfect time. And at its most…

Cyril and Linda’s Amanpulo Wedding
Jeff and I love shooting both portraits and candids. I think one of the biggest things that define our work is how we take and mix both. For Cyril and Linda’s wedding, they specifically requested for very, very few portraits, and for us to be even more documentary than we already are. We took it…

Muslim and Ekaterina’s Boracay Wedding
Muslim and Ekaterina came all the way from Russia to get married in Shangri-La Boracay. We were already set to cover their wedding and just talking about it over emails when it occurred to me to ask how many guests they were having. Ekaterina said they were having no guests. Not a single one. I…

Simon and Brenda’s Wedding
I will always remember Simon and Brenda because during our first meeting with Jojit, their coordinator, Simon asked him if he could have a ping-pong table at the reception. There was a moment of silence as Brenda, Jojit, Jeff, and I wondered if we heard him correctly. Yes, a ping-pong table. What for? BEER PONG.…
