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!

Teofy & Edna :: Engagement Shoot

Vinz — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 10:43:38 +0000

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!

Afternoon shoot with Rhea

Vinz — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 05:05:30 +0000

Rhea and I have long discussed about a second pictorial. Honestly, I wanted to redeem myself after our first in which I didn’t do justice. So on Wednesday afternoon, I picked up my bags and headed to her apartment. It’s been a while since I shot some portraits. Glad to get my feet wet again. Here are some shots at the rooftop.

Rhea! Thanks for the opportunity! Let’s shoot your friends next!

For equipment geeks out there. Here’s the stuff I brought into play for this shoot- Nikon D80, Tamron 28-75mm F/2.8, Nikon SB-800, white shoot-through umbrella, CTR-301 wireless trigger/receiver.

New lessons learned from my prenup shoot yesterday Before sharing the photos from my most recent engagement shoot,...
