this it the last video for the month of august. finally, i’m up-to-date with my blog. =)
last but definitely not the least.
fun-filled and gorgeous people gathered to witness the beautiful gretchen and the equally dashing neil exchange their vows in front of the altar.

as our style continue to evolve, my team and i slowly but surely gain little steps into mastering our chosen career that is wedding documentation. jorge and teeny’s wedding was an opportunity for us to try a different approach to our same day edit. yes, the mtv style with an alternative rock and roll music is still my weapon of choice any given time but my bag of tricks is getting filled up with new and may i say exciting stuff that we are yet to fully master. get ready y’all!

joanna looked more like a flower girl than a bride until after she wore her wedding gown. it was a wedding filled with drama from the second we stepped into the bridal suite ’til the moment we left mandarin hotel. so emotional that i had two of my female shooters teary-eyed after listening to the beautiful speech of the bride’s brother. no kidding!
if you like glideshots and whatnot, this is your lucky day!

i’ve been having crazy and long days this past couple of weeks that i’m getting the feeling august will just pass me by. exhausted but still having a lot of fun, learning a lot of things in so little time, the exact opposite of what i thought i’d be some ten years ago. amidst all these, i am still aware that i owe my wife a honeymoon trip somewhere.
anyway, check out my latest video about the donut loving kris and the beautiful karen in her awesome dress. enjoy!

i’m often asked how long does it take for me to edit. truth be told, i’ll maximize every second available. no scripts, no formulas, everything on the spot edit. as the day goes by, the story of the video continuous to evolve into something almost one hundred percent different from the first cut when my team leaves the prep venue.
another frequently asked question is when is the best time to play the onsite video. well, whenever possible as long as one: the video is ready to be played, two: there are still people present to watch it and three: people are done asking you random stuff so they won’t do it while the video is being played!

another morning wedding down south. we actually had another wedding the day before at exactly the same hotel, church and reception venue.
karen was gen’s classmate back in highschool. understandably, my wife did more catching up with her old friend than shooting video. =)
church: our lady of la consolacion

venue: fernwood gardens
a funky song it was and it pushed the creative juice out of me. something crazy is always up inside a twenty three-year young marrying brain. when i saw everyone wearing their jordan sneakers, i knew it’s gonna be a party…and i was unable to resist the urge to dance along. =)

beautiful vows make beautiful weddings…and wedding videos. we are very fortunate to listen and witness amazing vow exchanges for the past couple of months. benedict and karen’s is on our top five.
the bride’s dress tells a story of it’s own, and man was she gorgeous. benedict, who sang her entrance song was unable to hold back his tears when she saw her. i’ll stop here before i give it all away. =)
one last thing. i am not a morning person and on this particular morning, our call time was just an hour after my body goes to sleep. this was the first of three morning weddings we have this month. i’m just saying. =)

my main man, playboy patrick, took the plunge and did what few men dare to do: think on the spot during their exchange of vows. =) and yes, he stuttered a little, but he ended up with something beautiful. =)
…and, if you think that was good, you’re gonna love the couple’s funky first dance.
destination wedding: ambassador in paradise, white beach boracay
photographer: paolo feliciano
the crystal clear water and the bluest blue skies you’ll ever see, i stayed for seven days and still i think it wasn’t enough. a lot has changed. your beachside shake is now jony’s, the sexy chic in a bright orange bikini is korean, and no one seem to skimboard anymore. if you’re in for the extreme though, don’t miss out on cliff diving!
a beautiful beach wedding is what i was in boracay for. the couple and their guests (and the videographera) were barefoot as the ceremony unfolds. rhoel said “ever since we started our sentences with babe or bee, i was told to hurry up…i was told to wait…i listened to bread and the carpenters alone in my room on a rainy day…” and blanche responded “…today, i stand before you, ready and willing to complicate my life…” that was one fine exchange! =)
