  • There was a time when writing about these things were almost automatic. A few years ago, I had all the time to write about weddings as soon as I got home from shooting one. I always thought it could go on and on. Luckily, life happened. And while I do wish I could write a…

    Jigs & Bela’s Wedding Back in May
  • I’ve been wanting to write around here for quite some time now, but with two growing boys in tow, time feels like a memory all the time. Which is why I’m so glad Jane and myself decided to officially end the boys’ summer with a Night Pass at Dusit Thani in Mactan. The Night Pass…

  • I arrived at Manu & Nickle’s wedding preparations around 10 in the morning or something. It was another one of those “no entourage” small gatherings, you know? It could not have been any more relaxed as it was. The videographer was scrambling for clips because it was terribly quiet. As for me, I was happy…

  • To Dalaguete & Back We almost didn’t make it to this invitation because Kuya’s District Meet Scrabble Game was supposed to happen. Fortunately, it was rescheduled, so I thought we were meant to drive down to Dalaguete. The invitation came from Creselda & Kevin. I got to know them years ago, when I help put…

  • Canta And just like that, we were back at Canta Homestead in Lutopan, Toledo City. The immediate answer was “Yes” when Jao inquired if we would like to visit the Bukid Collective that they were holding over the weekend. Coincidentally, we are neighbors which spelled convenience. Jao and his kids (AA, Gab & Chelsea) fetched…

  • 6 Years I last took photos of Roche & Auden back in 2019. They were one of those who didn’t want too many pictures and asked me to come to their wedding. While I was in Dumaguete a couple of weeks ago, Auden messaged to ask if I can take pictures on Renji’s Baptism. I…

    Renji’s Baptism
  • Campo I can’t recall the last time I was here for a wedding. I know, however, that I have shot a couple of weddings at this church. This was a last minute pitch by Therese Red whose wedding I shot back in 2013. It will be their Mama & Papa’s 45th Year Anniversary. They could…

  • The last wedding I shot in Dumaguete City was back in July of 2019. It was a small crowd pretty much like the one in the pictures below and the fact of the matter is, it is because of that wedding that Febe & Dylan came across me as I wrote down in the previous…

    A Wedding in Dumaguete
  • The Old Blog While walking around the boulevard with these two, I casually asked how they found me. Dylan said, “I saw some pictures you took for a wedding here sometime ago”. I’m glad he did. Dylan & Febe are the kind of people who stands in front of my cameras. “Not too many pictures…

  • Ironic I don’t shoot as much as I did back then nowadays. So, it was puzzling to realize that I said “yes” to this wedding and turns out I had a company activity happening. Kind of ironic if you ask me. Luckily for me, I have trusted photographers I can call. On top of that,…
