Sneak Peek: Oahu Hawaii Wedding Photography | Abe and Jane

Here's a sample of the amazing aftershoot we had in Hawaii last week of Abe and Jane. This was just days after their wedding in Downtown San Francisco =)

In this shoot, Abe was not feeling too well but they are supertroopers and all they gave me were great moments after great moments. =)

Watch out for the complete post including that of their wedding which I shot with the awesome Ed Pingol. =)

Manila Cathedral and The Manila Peninsula Wedding Photography | Mikey and Micmic

Mikey and Micmic are doctors. And if all doctors are as nice as they are, no one will try and eat an apple just to keep them away.

In an absolutely awesome coverage experience, they made us feel more than part of their wedding. And how do they say thank you? =)

"Thank you. Forgot to tell you, Oly, everytime I see Paches she makes me smile, she's always smiling and laughing, and her face is just plain makulit. =) Nakakatuwa sya =) And Rommel! He was so nice and polite the whole time especially during table hopping and that's why we endured and finished it. =) Francis works quietly but covers everything so patiently. And you, pawis na at lahat but unrelenting worker! even tells the bride she's beautiful even if she can't smile. =) Thank you =)"

Now, Peaches really looks funny. hahaha - kidding. =) But seriously, Micmic didn't need to smile to be beautiful... check out the photos =)

Notable people in the Rigodon Ballroom reception aside from Senator Richard Gordon were Martin Reyes of the UP Fighting Maroons and the evening's emcees from Magic 89.9's Boys Night Out. Yeahmen! =)

Singapore Engagement Photo Sessions Part 2 | Evan and Marvie

I know that I've been behind blogging my recent (or should I still call it that? =P) Singapore series. But hey, some good things are worth the wait... and if an e-session was shot in culture and color rich Little India in Singapore, then that should be good. It gives you a feeling of being on top of the world. But why stop there? why not shoot literally on top of the world aboard the Singapore Flyer yes? by all means of course =) hahaha.

So here are Evan and Marvie's engagement session shoot in Singapore's Little India and Inside the Singapore Flyer (which if you will figure, we rode twice for shot variation). That's the most I remember... hahaha, I think I got too dizzy shooting while inside the flyer for about an hour.

Enjoy the photos =)
































here are some behind-the-scenes shots courtesy of Micmic =)
