A perfect fusion of east and west – that’s how I’ll describe Hong Kong. Being only a couple of hours by plane from Manila, this former British colony preserved its Chinese traditions yet it has obviously adapted the modern culture of the west. Hong Kong is known for its natural harbour, the Victoria. It was...
Having been always interested in architecture, I can’t help but be amazed whenever I see the Iglesia ni Cristo structures. Well, this was our first INC wedding and we weren’t disappointed when we entered. Absolutely stunning – given that this local is not their largest, it was already quite enormous if you ask me. Capturing...
We’re taking a break from posting wedding and engagement photos with this editorial for Bride and Breakfast. These are wedding gowns from the Ivory and Lace collection of..wait for it..the Landmark Department Store. Yes! That’s Landmark. When I saw these dresses, I was quite impressed with their quality and style that I didn’t think these...
As wedding photographers, we fly quite often and I’ve always wondered if a love story would ever happen more than a thousand feet above ground. Well, I got my answer when I met Paul and Aubrey. Being a pilot and flight attendant, their story unfolded while working together. Appropriately dressed in their work uniforms, where...
Batangas is one of the most frequented venues for engagement sessions because of its proximity to Manila. There are a lot of nice resorts and a good number of islands to explore (one of which we’ll feature on one of our next posts) but for this one, Omar and Anna got the La Luz Resort...
About a month ago, the Visayas region of the Philippines was devastated by typhoon Haiyan, displacing millions of people from their homes and losing thousands of lives. Aid was quick to arrive especially from foreign countries but as Filipinos, a couple of wedding suppliers felt the need to still help. In these kind of situations,...
We were having a rainy afternoon when we had the engagement session of Jaime and Nadine. Prior to this, we talked a lot on how the engagement session will happen and the location fit for their personalities. These two are really laid back so I think we got the perfect venue for the pre wedding...
The south has become a famous spot for weddings in recent years with its colder climate and less congested roads. There are numerous wedding venues here but what caught the eye of Karlo and Paz is San Antonio de Padua. It took us quite a while to find the church since it’s not really along...
Most Chinese weddings would have fascinating traditions that make it more colorful. Before a wedding date is set, a Feng Shui expert is usually consulted for the auspicious dates. Then there’s the Ting Hun where interestingly, the bride enters the ceremonial room walking backwards. Along with a number of other rituals, it is said to...
Couples take months of planning for their engagement session – the location, what to wear, who’s the makeup artist, and logistics, among others. But sometimes there are unexpected things that come our way. We were at our first location when we got news that we can’t use the next venue for the other layouts. Any...
