Arthur and Tina’s Engagement Shoot — Tokyo, Japan
Every spring is the only spring, a perpetual astonishment. — Ellis Peters / We usually shoot in Japan twice a year, during spring and autumn. It never gets old. No matter how many times you’ve seen cherry blossoms in full bloom before, it takes your breath away each time. It’s staggeringly beautiful. It was great…

James and Angelica’s Engagement Shoot
Early morning light, coffee, and a bookstore. Jeff and I are geeks and bibliophiles, so getting to run around an empty bookstore again was a treat. It’s been a couple of years since we last shot in one. We’re not quite morning people, but we happily wake up for that glorious light every time. We…

Mark and Melissa’s Day After Shoot – Kyoto, Japan
Jeff and I love shooting Day After sessions. These are post-wedding shoots that typically happen a few days or even weeks after the couple’s wedding. There’s a level of comfort and ease there, and a carefree excitement that comes with having the wedding preparations completely behind them now, and being giddy newlyweds who are madly…

Henrik and Ria’s Hong Kong Engagement Shoot
Hong Kong means a lot to us and we’re usually there twice a year to shoot, so it’s pretty familiar, but Henrik and Ria showed us a Hong Kong we’ve never seen before. Well, technically, just Jeff this time. If you’ve been following the recent blog updates, I missed this trip, sadly. But I was…

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…

Marc and Alicia’s Coron Engagement Shoot
Marc and Alicia got married last weekend. It was all sorts of lovely, and I can’t wait to blog about it (along with many other weddings that I’ll hopefully get around to blogging soon). But for now, I want to share their engagement session last month, shot in Coron, Palawan. It was Jeff’s and my…

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…

Ever Afters
I’m working on a number of weddings and engagement sessions to post here, but for today, I want to share this. We had a meeting the other day with a couple who booked us for their 2013 wedding, and the bride asked us, “Why weddings?” Of all the things we could shoot, why do we…

Aries and Rinka’s Japan Engagement Shoot
Jeff and I looked forward to Aries and Rinka’s engagement session in Japan for months. We had plans to shoot in Kyoto and spent a lot of time looking at different locations online. We were hoping for cherry blossoms, but it proved to be just too early still. The engagement shoot was a day before…
