it’s been a long time, more than a year to be exact, since i posted a 3d montage. no surprises there though as the special photo slideshow is only our second video of it’s kind.
speaking of rare happenings, this post includes a second video…the onsite video. =) fr. horan hall was jampacked on a wednesday evening…just shows how great friends the adorable couple have. =)
here’s a story…the couple had a very interesting concept for a bachelor’s game…ten locks, ten keys, ten bachelors, ten bachelorettes, only one key can open a specific lock…see the picture?…i was behind one of my shooters giving some instructions when all of a sudden, i heard the emcee calling my name. they have gotta be kidding me, i thought as i saw corinne laughing and nico looking like he’s got nothing to do with it. =) yep, i did play the game and nope, i did not get to kiss a bridesmaid…as i was returning to my seat and gen (who was there all the time) was staring at me like i forced myself into it, i learned that the winners not only got the chance to kiss, both also won lomo cams. i couldn’t react until gen told me that i should’ve won. haha. =)
the following video is nico and corinne’s love story avp (a little over a year ago, we also did celine’s, nico’s sister, love story avp.) it’s about how their story began with a little twist. kinda like what didn’t happen. i do hope you’ll enjoy this because i have seen it more than a hundred times and i still do. =)
november 16, 2008 – fernwood garden
edsa shangri-la hotel
grace looked lovely that night and her cecilio abad gown was gorgeous. yet another grand occasion my team and i had the pleasure to be a part of. i have never seen st. francis of assisi’s chapel at fernwood filled with that much flowers. same can be said at the garden reception. there were at least four photographers and five videographers covering the event. =) it was beautiful.

the crazy month of november is halfway through. days start and end in front of the computer but still, i have blog post backlogs! =) as i post this latest video, allow me to apologize in advance for the delayed email responses and text message replies that, well, you haven’t received yet. =)
the first ever w@w videofest will happen on january 30, 2009 at rockwell power plant cinema 4. i am overwhelmed with mixed emotions right now and i’m still wearing the smile i had when i received benz’ invitation. kudos to oly and the whole metrophoto team for the wonderful pictorial.
check out the teaser made by threelogy (video clips shot by bob and rj nicolas.)
november 8, 2008 – the archbishop’s palace
astoria hotel
PSE Auditorium
i am not a morning person. actually, i rarely see the morning sun. either it’s just about to show up or it’s already scorching hot that you can’t even look at it anymore and the heat can only give skin cancer or, if youre lucky, just sore eyes. my good morning is about 12:01 am to maybe 4:30 am and my good morning also means good night yáll. plus i don’t drink coffee. anyway, before i push my being not-a-morning-person further to the point that it’s boring, i want to share how our first november wedding came and gone. =)
i woke up at about four thirty in the morning, with power still out in our neighborhood, and i actually found myself in good mood. no power means the water heater ain’t gonna work and i’m too lazy to boil me some water so i went ahead and took the cold bath. thank goodness i was able to take advantage of the newest and perhaps one of the greatest invention in human history…cellphone backlights! some thirty minutes later, PTV team was on the way. a little bit excited to see jayson arquiza and his gang after six months. =) there i was, at the backseat of our suv still having a difficult time accepting that one of my frequent blog readers is finally getting married. after months of exchanging ym’s with cris about how she enjoys watching my latest video, her onsite video is finally up…and just like that, it’s the “latest” and, i’m just guessing, her all time favorite. =) the kind of feeling you get when your friend goes abroad or the cute puppy you found outside your house is taken back by the rightful owner after you’ve totally bonded (dang, that sucks..and to you sir, in case you bump into this, there’s no such thing as dognapping!!!), or better yet, the feeling when hulk hogan lost the world heavyweight title to the ultimate warrior…you know, that kind of thing where it’s good either way it turned out to be…that’s how i felt. why you ask? well for one, i’m gonna lose 10-20 blog hits (maybe more) a week…there’s also the cool comments cris leaves that i’m gonna miss, plus some instant messaging once in a while about wedding stuff. on the other hand, my clients friends finally had a very successful wedding. man, a lot of stuff went through my head that i’ve forgotten how i almost chickened out to use the couple’s requested onsite song. =)
