From Ogie Alcasid to South Africa



A couple of years ago when MPW was just starting we booked a bride and after booking she called us asking "Can you please sign an agreement form? Because my brother will sing in my wedding and he does not want his photo/ video being used with no authorization?" I said "Of course who is your brother anyway?", "His name is Ogie Alcasid". My excitement was ruined, the brother did not make it to sing on our clients wedding. Then after a year the bride referred us to another couple, we shot their wedding and the groom told us (click the email above) he sent their wedding video to his mom in South Africa which makes her mom cry watching the video. I cannot imagine our video in South Africa, a long way. We are happy that out clients relive their wedding day thru our work.

No Sunshine

That was how we described their wedding day, rainy and cloudy. They are from South Jersey and a true "country feel" almost not “Jersey feel”. While driving to their place, we noticed a lot of horses, cows and sheep at the front yard in most houses, but should I say big houses, HGTV houses. The party was wild with the brother of the groom doing BEATBOX while the groom and some friends dance to it ala ABDC (America's Best Dance Crew), boy they got talent.

No flower in the garden




Caitlin & Mike
Longwoods Garden PA

This garden is a great attraction for people who love flowers, but when we arrived they are all gone, nothing but dead grass. We were lost at first but the photos came out nice.

Leave your comments and greetings for the couple here in the complete gallery:

We are My Pinoy Wedding 2






We are My Pinoy Wedding

We are My Pinoy Wedding, after our humble beginning in 2003 in Bayonne NJ, we are very happy in what our group have achieved. We are a group of young individuals who loves to see great and cinematic weddings, and that fantasy is now a reality to our clients. As we always say, "your wedding is our wedding". None among us had a great wedding, some are not even married yet, but we are living the dream, not our wedding dreams though.

We shot this on a very simple technical set up, one light setup (household bulb), on a brick wall near a fireplace during our last MPW anniv party. Creativity is the key to this profile photos, we are not models just trying hard to be, who doesn't one to be just once in your lifetime right? Check our facebook page (Glenn Maningas) to see the behind the scene. Again to all our friends, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE SUPPORT, MARAMING SALAMAT PO !!

Sweet n Simple

Filipino weddings are all about fun, food, dancing, fiesta. But this couple chose a different path, only those close people are invited (around 40 guests), very private, very sweet. We cannot deny that we also felt that love in the air.

We Feel Good


Jon & Joan

Hasbrouck Heights NJ

This is our first full gig for 2009 evrything went smooth, no complaints, beautiful (always grinning) bride, nice weather, perfect SDE, nice party and of course good food not only on the dinner party but I think we downed all the sandwiches in the brides room during her preparation.

The SDE is very much different, this bride wants a fast paced SDE so we gave her what she want (isn't that always the case on every wedding? you always give the bride what she wants..always).
