For Imagine Nation Photography (http://www.imaginenationphoto.com), shot with Lai De Guzman.
Wedding was 9 am, so we had to be at the hotel 5 am. Oh the humanity! Just kidding. It’s nothing we couldn’t handle. Haha. XD

Preps was at the… you know what, I forgot the name of the hotel, but it was cool, with different lights and colored walls, so it just woke me up a bit and got excited for the shoot.


Macro never gets old.

Thanks for the idea Lai. Haha.

Aileen is one of those brides that are a bit shy. Plus, it was early in the morning, so unless you’re a morning MORNING person, I’d get why you wouldn’t be able to muster up a smile. Haha. XD But we did our best to make her smile with constant reminders of “Pretend you’re happy.” XD I think it worked.


Since it was early, Ailene didn’t have to put the dress on already. But we decided to go finish shooting Ron so that everything would be faster. Here’s his barong. This shot is his request. Ron’s also a guy who loves photography, so he had plenty of suggestions. Useful if you’re still sleepy. XD


Ron flashes the OK sign as he gets ready. Good for him.


Just love that green wall. Haha. XD

Back to Ailene! It’s her time to get dressed.

A good luck kiss from mom and dad… and to make her smile of course. XD


We headed down after, but the bridal car wasn’t there yet. She went back up, so did I, and then I saw this shot. Love it.

We then discovered that there had been a mix-up, and that there was no bridal car. Oops. I tried to convince her to just ride a taxi (aside from saying that what mattered is that you get to the wedding, and not how you get there, and besides, it would be unique), but then a car from one of their friends came and she just rode there. Aww… anyone want to be a taxi-riding bride?

Off to church. Ailene makes her entrance. Yay silhouettes. XD


So if adults are a bit slow and lethargic during mornings, what more kids? Hmm… Let’s see. This one looks positively cranky.

These kids look happy though.

Ring time.

Ailene beams at me after the whole process. Funny. Hehe.


I feel sorry for the kid. She looks like she’s being dragged or something. Kidding. It’s cute.



Time to finish this post! Haha.
Couple portraits!



Congrats you guys!
