The very first Wedding Photography Workshop of Lakshmi Photography. It wouldn’t be a success without the help of some people who have made this dream possible. Special thanks to Ms. Mimi Pimentel and Mr. Benjie S. Manuel for the gorgeous gowns and suits the models, Ton and Vanessa wore, to Mr. Roel Yap for sending not one but three amazing bouquets for our bride and Mr. Allan Sajulga for making Ton and Vanessa look refreshingly sweet that day. And to Mr. Zoe Botwin, for all the efforts and creative styling that made this day possible. To the participants, who would all like to remain “anonymous,” thank you so much. I enjoyed every single minute with you. “_)

Carlos + Cherry Nasaire’s Underwater Trash-The-Dress

Thursday, June 2nd, 2011

This was Lakshmi team’s very first venture into the wonderful world of Underwater Photography. At the moment the deal was sealed, our hearts started pumping like crazy. What to do? Will the gears be safe? How will we take the shots? How will they be able to hold their breath? Cherry doesn’t know how to swim, how will they hack it? Questions! Fears! No doubt we had it all. But because of our brave couple we were able to have a very successful underwater trash-the-dress! Kudos to Carlos and Cherry for a job well done! Special thanks to Alex Obregoso for lending us his Dicapac and for giving us helpful tips. To Jelo Pacana and Nel Ruelo for helping me stay underwater, Jay Angela Omana for the hair and makeup and Benjie S. Manuel for the gown. Will Julie and I still do this again????? Hell yeah!!! An awesome experience worth doing again, again, again, and again! “_) This will be offered to all future clients who are brave enough to swim in the open sea or at a 16-ft swimming pool… “_)
