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! :)

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.

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

I love my J-O-B!

We got invited to shoot and assist our friend Mark during a prenup task. So we took care of the candids while he directed the couple. Well, we were instructed not to release any photos yet so they could surprise their friends, but we’re allowed to post some “anonymous” shots. Yehey!

Let’s wait 3 months for the rest of the shots…

My times with Kuya Teofy date back to our university days in UP. We both were part of the same religious organization, and he’s finally tying the knot with Ate Edna in a few days.

But before the pictures, here’s some sidestory why this dude is special- There was this one night just at the outskirts of the UP campus, there were four of us crossing the streets when a group of young boys attempted to rob me off my cellphone. I was being threatened at knife-point,when Kuya Teofy jumped in and tried to grab one of those criminals. To cut the story short, the robbers were successful taking my phone away, Kuya Teofy and I both got lacerations but we were both alive. It’s nice to think that this dude would take a knife for me. For that I’m very thankful. I know I would do the same for him, but I hope it won’t come to that. Hehe!

Okay.. okay.. prenup photo-ops @ AUP (My 2nd time to shoot prenups there). It was getting dark when we started but we managed to get some cool shots nonetheless.  Just a few days and I’ll witness Ate Edna marry this superhero!

I flew south of Manila to Bacolod to attend Jinoe and Que’s wedding. Under the smoldering heat of the sun we managed to take a bunch of great shots for their prenups. But then I realized that TAKBO.PH‘s first couple must be no stranger to the heat on the road. I just wonder if making PDA in front of my lens is much more taskful than running a 21K .
