Rhea and Jeff SDE
Oct 25th
The song Rhea wanted us to use for the SDE was very popular in wedding videos before. Though we often sway couples into not choosing the ones overused in SDEs, how can we persuade them when their ringing tones and the bride’s entrance music is the same song? 
”And from the ballroom floor we are in celebration. One good stretch before our hibernation.” 2 lines from the song “Stolen” that I found so applicable to the couple during the reception. As I was somehow a witness as to how stressful and exciting their wedding preparations were. And now that they are finally married, and leaving for their island honeymoon, nobody deserves it better than Rhea and Jeff.
Here’s Rhea and Jeff’s wedding SDE. Where we surprised them both with their exchange of gifts.

Nikki and Glen Prenup & SDE
Oct 21st
The Prenup – from the planning stages of the prenup shoot, the locations, the visa, the schedule and the shooting days itself. It wasn’t easy. So much story went behind this extraordinary experience. From the immigration harassment, the end-of-summer Dubai weather, and the difficulty of shooting with a one-man crew. It was a challenge that I was proud to pull off.
Dubai is such a wonderful city, one of the most beautiful I’ve visited so far. So thankful to Nikki and Glen for the great opportunity I had in shooting their prenup there.
Here’s the prenup video, shot on location, in Dubai, UAE.
The Wedding – Planning a wedding 7,000 kilometers away from home is no easy feat. But for a couple this so much in love, nothing’s impossible. Though they were supposed to wed in an intimate setting in Dubai, they realized, as all other out-of-the-country based couples did, nothing beats a wedding from home.
Here’s their SDE.

Mae and Dave SDE

A masquerade wedding that is anything but ordinary. A Paramore song for the bridal entrance? Totally cool.
Here’s their SDE. An rnb/rap track requested by the bride.
Genevieve Uy + Franklin Salvador
Apr 5th
Our 2nd, “Genevieve Uy” bride. Well, this time it’s Genevieve Ann Uy. Was mildly confused when her sister followed up on our availability on Chin’s wedding date (the other Genevieve Uy already booked hers a few weeks back). I thought I was in the twilight zone for a moment there.
The wedding was spectacular. The the makeup, the gown, the fireworks, the coordination, everything. Roger and his team also made it easy for us to shoot Chin and her stunning poses. Hats off to you guys!
Now, allow us to show you Genevieve and Franklin’s wedding SDE.
