I once met Kristine from her brother’s wedding and Ryan was there taking pictures of their family. Didn’t know that just a few years later, these guys are getting hitched as well.

Fast forward to this day, everything went perfectly as planned. We had lots of time to shoot for preps and for our portraits and it must’ve been easier because of the people I was working with. Glad to be working with two of the most sought wedding suppliers of 2011. *wink*.

Here’s an interesting fact about Ryan and Kurly… Early in their relationship, Kurly told Ryan that she never wanted to receive roses because she finds these too typical. So Ryan squeezed his creative juices (or relied on his suki – Flower Farm in Alabang) to give Kurly different kinds of flowers. There were times when Ryan gave Kurly lisianthus, more commonly known as paper roses, which she really loved. But on her wedding day, the flowers requested by the bride for her bouquet are roses. (She really wanted English roses, but since these are difficult to source, Eduardian roses will do)

Kurly’s mom crying and laughing at the same time… made me laugh as well…

One of my favorite moments that day… getting ready for the kiss…

Congrats Ryan & Kurly…

Not just any ordinary wedding…

In this world, it’s already a rarity to see Marriages that lasts more than 20, 30 or 40 years. Heck, watching media alone, divorce and separation are very common like changing clothes. (Okay, that might be a little exaggerated)

Point is, when we see celebrations of LOVE like these…I feel that it is just “a right thing” that we must honor the people who stayed  committed to their vows in front of God and their loved ones.

Congratulations to Capt. Romulo Tobias and Lola Nena Tobias for 50 years of holding, keeping and cherishing their commitment to each other.

Ephesians 5:25 “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her…”

Watching a young couple in love is joy, but watching an aging couple in love is bliss ^_^

Batangas Prenup: Aerick & Eileen

Aerick and Eileen met as friends during High School. Fate brought them together after college and it’s God who destined them to finally be engaged. You can easily spot love when you look in a person’s eyes. That’s why there must be truth in the saying our “Eyes are the windows to our soul.” 

But don’t take my word for it, just look at them…

PS. We had this session on Aerick’s ancestral house at Batangas and we had an awesome time shooting and EATING… Yum!
