Ritche and Rose :: Engagement Shoot

Vinz — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 09:29:24 +0000

We drove as fast as we could from Pasay to Tagaytay to shoot our quickest prenup session. Our ride almost overheated too! Hehe! You see, with only limited time for them to prepare everything for their wedding (only 3 weeks!), they had to make the most of their schedule. But despite the time frenzy, the pictorial was such a breeze. They were so relaxed, 3 hours seemed like an eternity. Then after we called it a wrap, we were treated to Tagaytay’s famed bulalo then sped back to Manila.

Mike and Jhona :: Wedding

“Vinz, ‘wag yung mga ‘cheezy’ pose ha? Basta alam mo na. Magbilang ka lang!” – Mike

Mike and Jhona are the ‘kulitest’ couple I have had so far. From engagement shoot, the wedding and beyond, this couple is FUN! In quite a short stint with them, it feels like we’ve already known them for years. Tropa talaga!

Marky and Gracy :: Wedding

“Independent” backup work!

Gracel contacted me a couple of weeks before their wedding day, asked me to take additional shots apart from their main photographer’s snaps. So while the main coverage team worked their preps on wedding day, I arrived early in church, took some shots then played with the flower girls and bible+covenant bearers! Haha!

Got a boatload of shots, but here’s some.

Photojourn!

Edong and Mei :: Engagement Shoot

Vinz — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 14:59:28 +0000

Mei is a very good friend from way back during our university days in UP where we belong to the same religious organization. How time flies fast- she’s tying the knot a few months from now. I must say Edong is one lucky guy.

It was a long drive to Sierra Madre Resort in Tanay, Rizal. It rained during our trip but the couple remained very positive about good weather. I was silently figuring out possible shots on a rainy day, but the rain stopped when we arrived and were blessed with great weather that pretty much complemented the beautiful surroundings.

We headed to the Philippine Airforce Museum at Villamor. All I could say is that this prenup shoot was just too darn FUN! Sobrang kuleeet ni Mike at Jhona! This couple got me laughing throughout the shoot, I had to remind myself I was working! Hehe! But seriously, this is how we work. We have fun.

Wayne and Joy :: Engagement Shoot

Vinz — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 01:31:40 +0000

Wayne and Joy both have been our church friends- not to mention but they’re also my wife Cel’s AUP College of Nursing batchmates! They’re now US-based nurses and have flown back to the PI to finally tie the knot. FYI, I’m not their main photographer but Joy phoned me just a couple of days ago for a separate prenup shoot with me apart from their main photog’s packaged prenups; told me they’d be wearing formals (read: gown… barong…) for our shoot, gave me the idea that they both wanted their pictorials at some place like an abandoned house and then sunset shots so I took them to the construction site just right behind the church where they’ll be wed and then Baywalk at Roxas Boulevard.

And yes, I finally got to take a snap with the rakenrol couple. Tenkyu! Tenkyu!

Joel and Rethel :: Engagement Shoot

Vinz — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 16:01:52 +0000

Rethel is my 2nd degree cousin and she’s flown like miles and miles all the way from Canada to Batangas to meet Joel, her HTB (that’s husband-to-be, folks) for their wedding arrangements AND their prenup shoot as well. The sun was scorching hot during our shoot and this couple braved the unbearable heat with us and came up with fantastic photos at the end of the day.

Location: Adventist University of the Philippines (AUP)

Oh well… the things I do to get my shot…

I love my J-O-B!

UP Concert Chorus

Vinz — Sun, 07 Mar 2010 09:30:09 +0000

I got the privilege to work alongside other photographers/videographers for the UP Concert Chorus. I was assigned to take group shots of the choir by section. You know… soprano… alto… tenor… bass… Other photographers were asked to shoot their solos and the entire choir. So I took each section to the red brick walls of the UP Theater. Strobist mode. And oh! By the way- VJ IS BAAAAACK!!!! My original tag team partner is back in the mix!

Got some candids too but maybe I’ll just post them later

Ayt! Here we go!

Soprano

Alto

Tenor

Bass
