The Courtyards

Something we did for Pueblo de Oro. The Courtyards is the first condominium in Cagayan de Oro City. While most of it’s facilities are still under construction, you can check out their website to see how this exclusive residential condo will develop.

Ishi’s Graduation

ishigrad

March 23rd 2009 – My daughter’s graduation from CASA (Kindergarden) at Sacred Heart of Jesus Montessori School (where I graduated elementary & high school also).

It’s also the anniversary of the day I married Paz in church.

27 and I already have a kid graduate.

Just one of the reasons to have one early.

…Plus this!  :D

My first time to go out and visit another country.  Had a blast!

Before, I’m one of those people that don’t want to travel to other countries.  My thinking was, “ang perang pang travel, i-invest na lang sa business or yung bagay na magtatagal”.

But now, the memories and time spent with the family in another country, really is priceless.

Check out the rest of the album in my multiply account.

Thanks!

Jo Anne + Chris

First, we kickstart our year with an upbeat RNB-driven prenup AVP, the song handpicked by the couple themselves.

Shot in different locations in Metro Manila.

Then, for their onsite video, used a lot of depth-of-field shots from my D90 (including shots of the vows).

To Jo Anne and Chris, thanks for the memorable prenup shoot in Metro Manila and the chance to shoot your wedding day.  Congratulations!

Valerie + Romar: Davao

Our last wedding for 2008.  Valerie and Romar are both working in Dubai and planned their wedding online.  It’s nice to see that even if you’re very far, you can still plan and organize your big day with the help of the world wide web and the YMs of your suppliers.  :)

Romar followed Valerie to Dubai.  Choosing to work there because of Valerie.  A classic example of true love. 

We had a blast shooting this wedding.  A nice thing to end a wonderful year for us.  A year we are really thankful for.  Shout-out to our couples, fellow suppliers, friends, relatives and idols.  Happy New Year!

Ronah Debut

Ronah’s birthday is actually last July.  Because of her busy schedule (she’s studying in La Salle), she wasn’t able to have a debut celebration.  But now she has and a very beautiful one too.

I flew (again) to Manila to shoot her there at her school but, unlike our Ateneo shoot before, La Salle’s very strict so we decided to have a different shoot instead.  Also, I found out that to shoot in nice places in Manila, you have to pay extra, especially if you’re carrying a large cam (bummer).  Very different from here in CDO.

Oh well, just watch her video.  And see Ronah “make it happen”.  :)
