{ C L I F F S I D E }



Some outtakes from our engagement shoot in the cliffs of the Antulang peninsula. 

It is very important that your engagement photos be taken by someone you are comfortable with. Because this session entails a lot of things you don't normally do on a daily basis. I for one am not a showy person so it's hard for me to be all sweet and lovey dovey in front of a group of people. I am just really thankful and lucky that ours were taken by a member of our team, James Diayon, who is also a great friend by the way and who shares the same style and creativity as us.   So it was all fun fun fun! Notice my reaction. I didn't know I was bungisngis like that. hahaha

For couples who enlist the service of professional photographers for their wedding, engagement session is the best way to bond with your photographer and warm up to them. Believe me, during the first few shots the couple are usually stiff and shy and sweaty. But after a few clicks, laughs, and conversation, the couple is back to their natural and charming old selves. So come your wedding day, it will be as easy as pie and you'll be like best friends! Also, it is crucial that you choose a photographer that matches your style. All photographers i believe capture amazing and quality photos. But they surely vary in artistic approach and style. Some couple prefer photographers with fine art approach, others are awed with out-of-the-box style, and some prefer the teleserye-poster types.  So the secret is you must know your style first and start the search from there. :)

The last four photos were from the official set. Head on over to Marlon Capuyan Photography for more. :)

{ TAKE ME TO THE BEACH }



Blogging might have been overshadowed with much more important things last year but that didn't mean i totally lost my love for it. My last entry was in October before I got married (yes, I got married last November, more of that in another entry) and after that my schedule just went haywire. There were just lots of things to do I didn't even know where to begin. This is my first time to live independently away from home. The household chores is really what's killing me right now. Everything's happening so incredibly fast I badly need a day-off to absorb as in really ABSORB these changes. 

The Sinulog festival is this weekend but i'm in no mood to celebrate in the streets. Would really love to go to the beach and stare at the horizon for an hour and just lay there all day with a good book in hand. I would really love to do that.

We planned this trip way back in 2009 but never really gotten around to fulfilling it until November of last year. Life took a complete 360 degrees when the boyf decided to go full time on wedding photography and since then our weekends are spent covering weddings, engagements, or editing. 


Last November, we were lucky though to be blessed with four days free during the Halloween weekend because you know who gets married on All Souls Day, right? And ten years of happiness together and yes little bickering sometimes (or most of the time? haha) calls for a celebration, so I said go, let's do this, now na! The destination, Kookoo's Nest in Antulang, Negros Oriental.


If you want night to morning beach parties, flowing alcohol, blasting sounds, then Kookoo's Nest is not the place for you. Because the only sound you get to hear in this place are melodic lull of the waves, crickets and fireflies at night, and your own whispered conversation. Kookoo's nest gave me the peace and calm I look for in a beach vacation. It gave me 4 days worth of non-wedding business related conversation with the boyfriend. Although yes, we did discuss a wedding but it was not for someone else. :)


Since this was such a happy trip, I want to share an amateur video of this travel.
Excuse the hair flipping part though. The boyf instructed me to do this flipping thing and I am such a bad actress. Epic fail! Shet. It's funny though. It gave me a good laugh. haha
Enjoy!

“I have always loved the beach. The smell of the salty water, the wind in my face, the gentle roar of the waves all combine to create a sense of peace and calm.”
---Anonymous

Four days worth of being lulled by the ocean waves and brought into nirvana just by staring at the endless horizon during sunset so beautiful you don't ever want to blink.

Shot on location at Kookoo's Nest, Antulang, Negros Oriental.
I will forever be enamored by thee.
