Mark+Sam

If I didn’t know “opposites attract,” I’d change profession and be a theoretician. This bubbly couple, Mark Yu and Samantha Sancho, are a total opposite but they do compliment each other. Mark is the strong, adventurous dare devil, while Sam is the delicate flower, who is ever so sweet and barely gets shaken. I don’t know if she ever gets mad or angry at something.

We were at a location, at a cave in particular, and we were all stunned at how she is afraid of closed spaces. She cried like a baby and we thought, “There goes our beautiful day. Our bride won’t smile after this.” But we were all surprised at how she just brushed it off after a few minutes. She was herself again, the beautiful bride-to-be who’s ever so pleasant and adorable. Mark was there to pacify her; he gave her love, comfort and assurance that everything’s going to be alright.

Mark is so lucky to have Sam and vice versa. Mark is Sam’s prince who will be there for her and I think, will even die for her. Every girl’s dream. Sam on the other hand, has found her prince charming, who rescued her from the tower of lonesomeness. And with this, they’ll both live happily ever after.

See the love they both share with these pictures. I didn’t have a hard time at all. Both of them are a natural.

This shot was a challenge both for me and the couple. We had to ride a pumpboat to arrive at this island
and I had to shoot at the same boat from afar. I’m so proud of Mark and Sam for pulling it off. Their
cooperation was a big plus! Hope all couples will have their guts and sense of adventure. Cheers!

Can you guess what bird this is??? “_)

Scary? This is at Sohoton Cave. It really does look like someone’s face. It’s as if, it’s guarding the eerie place.

Was only bought at Php 50.00 (15-20pcs).  Seafoods in Siargao are so fresh and so affordable.

Due to insistent demand, we’re having a Part 3 of Jiva Jimenez’s Photography Workshop. This workshop is for beginners and for those who want to refresh their knowledge in photography. We’ll be discussing the basics in photography but to add spice for the participants, we’ve invited a few models to pose for them.  We’ll also be having some of our previous participants and this time, we’ll be teaching them something advanced to challenge what they’ve previously learned.

A few slots are still open. Register now “_) You may visit the studio or call (8822) 727357 and/or 09179324418.

Getting married is not an easy process but having a biracial marriage triples the fun! We witnessed the struggles that Rachel and Munish had to go through just to make this dream possible. From the preparations and decisions that has to be made to the papers that they have to have up to the schedules that they have to keep up. Munish can’t just leave his job and have an interview with the City Hall or Embassy, everything had to be planned. Some of their wants had to be compromised like their choice of wedding venue, choice of prenuptial and nuptial dates, and a whole lot more of decisions, decisions and decisions.

But all’s well that ends well. They had a very successful and beautiful by-the-pool wedding with their most intimate friends and relatives. What was important is that they were able to celebrate with the people they love and who are special to them both. Again, congratulations and best wishes! May you have dozens of babies (hehe) and a fruitful, blessed life ahead!
