I’ve always wanted to go to Guimaras. I always think about what a paradise it would be even though all I know about it is how they have the best mangoes in the country and thus in the world. But going there on a non-mango season and for a shoot instead of to partake of the said fruit is not as amazing as I thought it would be. You know who are amazing? Chin and Tata. Because for all of the shortcoming of the island for a worthwhile and distinct shoot, these awesome people more than made up for it.

So let’s just say that the next time I’m returning to Guimaras, it will only be for the Mango Festival. Meanwhile, pls. enjoy Chin and Tata’s pre-wedding photos.
