The Latest Stories Of
John and Olivia Take 2
I’m going out to shoot a wedding tomorrow.
Unlike the last few ones that I worked on
This hasn’t been rescheduled
When we met back in February,
Lyra and Dodong booked a November 20 wedding.
This, however, will be a smaller one than the original plan
I was going through the archives yesterday
And happen to stumble upon this wedding back in 2015
I thought I’d write a something about it
Some of these were in my facebook stories.
As I was working on the pictures, I thought
Why are the people not wearing masks? Honestly!
Anyway, this was one for the books.

A Different All Souls’ Day
The government imposed cemetery closures for All Souls’s this year
Luckily, Stephen and myself agreed to visit Carreta early this month
And then we thought we’d still pay homage to our Faithful Departed
On November 1st but we’ll just do it at home
So early Sunday I drove off to Talisay
I brought pretty much everything
From food, guitar, coffee & waffle maker, chairs, you name it
We cooked and enjoyed dinner early
While we lit candles to and had the kids played around

Ezra
Throughout the few years of shooting
I’ve kind of built a few traditions with some families
Anniversary shoots, year end family pictures
Baby pictures from year 1 until who knows
Little Ezra here is one of them
He was still in his mom’s tummy when we met
And when he was born, a few weeks earlier than scheduled
We met again for some newborn pictures
He was terribly small back then
Grew up a bit when he turned one last year
So it was really heart warming to see him being chased around
When we took these few pictures of him last week
Thank You Mark, Era and Ezra always.
See you in a bit.

Magnus and February
I always approach weddings from the perspective of an invited guest.
That way I get to take the pictures
Which speaks of the day as it naturally unfolded
And not the usual step 1, step 2, step 3 and so on
Luckily, weddings these days more than allow me to do so
As a matter of fact, I had a seat reserved for me
And just before going home after the brief dinner celebration
The groom himself handed me over a wedding giveaway
It was such an honor
Thank You Magnus and February

Balay
Last weekend I got the chance to go out of the house again.
Luckily Florianne wanted the masks Janice made
So I took it upon myself to drive and deliver them
She has a little shop just on the garage of their home
Quesadillas immediately greeted my as soon as I stepped in
We made coffee too
I brought a guitar just for fun
Unfortunately, there are no pictures of that.
But here are a few pictures of their little shop.
