Where is the entourage?

This photo shoot should be with the whole entourage. But the bridesmaids & groomsmen are nowhere to be found, but the results are intimate & sweet.

A Solemn One

Most weddings are party, drinking and dancing, a celebration of love. This one is different, small wedding, very solemn, very private.

East to West

Tim moved to NJ the time he met Noemi, he gave up the California sun, love can really do things. Now after a couple of engaged years here they are sharing their most precious day.

Ketchup on French Fries

Being in love and feeling it on the day of your wedding is hard. Your tired, excited, all the mixed feelings of a wedding day. Now it is time to say "I DO", can you say it flawlessly? Saying your vows without choking or mix of an almost-cry "I-DO" is like eating french fries without a ketchup.

Simply Different

This is a traditional polish wedding, different traditions and cultures always excites our group. People from Poland flew here to witness this wedding. Still we again outdid ourselves in this SAME DAY EDIT wedding video. The smile of the bride reminds us of Marissa Tomei, WOW! we love the 80's.

Totally In-Love

How do you know that the couple is really in-love? They do not want to be bothered on their dinner-party, they just want to be there and enjoy the moment. They are like kids in a candy store, this is their day, this is their long awaited moment of love.

Ready for Love?

Teresa is our youngest bride, she is only 24 but love knows no age. The Sacred Heart Basilica is one of the best church we've been, as stunning as Saint Patrick's Cathedral in NYC minus the tourist crowd. Again a mix of culture between Filipinos and African- Americans.

Love is Here

A very moving Christian song, "Love is Here". Flowing with emotions the groom cried upon seeing his bride walking down the aisle. A mix of tradition, Filipino tradition (veil, cord etc.) plus African tradition (jumping of the broom). We love this song, we love the wedding and we love the food at the party.

Maling WOODBURY

Who in NJ/NY do not know WOODBURY COMMONS OUTLET? Our wedding is in Woodbury New York, we are 4 in a group and all of us assumed that this is the Woodbury Commons Premium Outlet Mall despite we have a GPS pointing us on the right direction. Following our instinct we headed towards the outlet and we were caught dead silent when we learned we are going in the wrong place. We zoomed our way to NY (via the dreaded GWB) and no joke there was no traffic! We came in time and here is the SAME DAY EDIT VIDEO

From bitter to sweet

Our engagement shoot was aborted because the couple got into a car accident in I-287 in NJ. They got sideswiped by a truck and broke their side window. But 2 days later look how sweet their wedding is.

CRUNCH time

How late can be a wedding be late? This is a wedding one hour late (yes we are Filipino), big pressure for everyone, the bride, the whole party and that includes us because we need to present a video on the dinner party. Good enough, again we outdid ourselves.

Thrill by Video

How many guests do you have for your wedding? Around 50 will go to your ceremony and maybe 200 will appear on the dinner party (plus the allure of open bar). Good thing is we have now SAME DAY EDIT wedding video, your editedwedding video to be shown on your dinner party.

Video 1: St. Patrick's Cathedral our first time, plus the groom and bride lives in NY = total chaos. The cathedral is a known tourist spot in NYC and any marrying couple here has an almost celebrity level. Tourist will take photos of the couple even they do not know them.



Video 2: This is an old video from last year we LOVE the song, and the solo bridal shot outside the church

why are we happy?

Rochelle & Gilbert - Lucena City PH

Our first client in the Philippines, after 6 long years of being busy with weddings in the states, now here is my beloved hometown again. Yes I must admit our country is poor but definitely not sad. I chose to shoot this couples engagement in a not so "elegant" location. I want people to see what is the reality, not the tall buildings in our commercial district, not the air conditioned shopping malls, but the real people, the real Pilipinas instead. I am so amused how happy the kids are whenever they see a camera, smiles that are priceless, smiles that no toys can give them.

aesthetics on wedding

Natalie & Paul - Jersey City NJ

Why is the brides veil flying? I really cannot remember if this is a set-up (someone throw it on the air) or the wind blew her veil. But nonetheless it looks sweet. We always tell the couple if they have time to shoot outside so we can have an outdoor photos, this one in Liberty State Park, sun is setting down, all lovely photos. Lets do it again !!!

the groom's car

Riezl & Joel - Ossining NY

Someone shouted "Look what happened to Joel's car!" I was thinking someone broke into the groom's car, when we rushed outside this is what we got.

to photograph a photographer

Jen & Jonathan - Manahawkin NJ

Jonathan Oler is a professional freelance photographer (www.olerphoto.com) from Philadelphia. He shoots for Dr. Phil Magazine, Cathay Pacific and Philly Style to name a few. Our group was very honored to cover his wedding with his Filipina wife. A cold, windy , pre-winter saturday, everything turned out great, heck! all beach weddings are great.

a relaxed wedding

Theresa & Jonathan - Warren NJ

This is the most relaxed wedding we've covered. The bride was alone in her house with just the make-up artist. All her family came later from the shopping mall where their make-up was done, so our shoot went smoothly. It was raining on their wedding day but all things went alright. Another nice & teary SDE for our group.

end of season

Vivienne & Arnold - Bayonne NJ

After a crazy October (2-4 weddings per week), our group is proud to say that again, we outdid ourselves. We are very proud of everything that happened in this recent crazy wedding season. We always look for something different, something that will challenge our craft. Here is our latest offering, SDE (same-day-edit) Wedding Video. Seeing the reaction of the couple watching the video on the actual day with awe, is more than enough to rest our tired feet & mind.

paint with light

PNE & KAMIKAZEE - Jersey City NJ

I've been with these guys twice, very hardworking and funny band. This shot was taken prior to their prayer, they always pray before a performance and that is really something different with the image they have. Buhawi, the bass player was at the back stage waiting for his band mates. A light coming from an exit door is side lighting him and I stole this shot.
