Ceniza + Tamayo – Surigao Wedding Photographer

Monday, August 30th, 2010

Surigao is a long way from Cagayan de Oro but road trips are our favorite. Kim and Vanessa’s wedding was not the usual wedding for they had a lot of fun and surprises in store for their guests. Guests were overflowing from different parts of the Philippines and the world. Some of their relatives even came as far as Germany, Dubai and USA just to witness their union. Vanessa was a beautiful bride that day. Her simplicity combined with her beauty made her standout while Kim on the other hand was the dashing groom who is in comparison to his lovely bride.

All their hard work paid off. They told us they would only have a simple wedding but theirs was grand! They transformed Surigao’s Convention Center into a spectacular and awesome reception. At the entrance was a  beautiful landscape with a flowing fountain that’s soothing to hear and look at and when you go inside the Convention Center, you’ll see different kinds of flowers and draperies that add beauty to the whole place. The stage was also decorated in a simple yet elegant setup that suited the bride and groom’s personalities. Both Kim and Vanessa were hands-on with the preparations. They wanted to make sure that everything’s perfect for their special day. Again, all their hard work really paid off.

I now share to you their wedding album. The resort they chose was breathtaking. I had a very hard time choosing which pictures to include because I wanted to include almost all of the images but I had to choose a few and it was a very, very hard task. Enjoy! “_)

Galza + Quirog – Cagayan de Oro Philippines Wedding Photographer

Saturday, August 21st, 2010

I thought no one reads our introductions but thankfully some people do! And our beautiful bride, Charlene, is one of them. She thinks our introductions add spice, well, the word she really used was “attraction.” So she shared a few information regarding her and Rey’s journey. Here’s her message:

“Finally I got a chance to browse your Lakshmi website. As I was reading through some wedding introductions, I realized you barely knew what happened behind the scenes, before the wedding and all. I thought I might share a little bit about our story. The introductions you made added the attraction about the couple in the photos. The days before our wedding Rey and I were already very busy. Since Rey just came, we had to do a lot like attending seminars, submitting requirements, buying this and that etc. Plus we started fetching Rey’s relatives on the 24th until the wedding day itself. So it was very chaotic and exhausting since Rey wanted to see or pick them up at the airport personally even if there was a hired van because his relatives came from far off places; USA, Japan and Manila. And then another turn of event is that his father couldn’t make it to Mindanao because he got sick and doctors won’t allow him to travel. But thankfully by Saturday night we all had a chatty dinner and went back to the Pearlmont Inn for another bonding time. -) Before Rey came, I was thinking of rest before the wedding day but that didn’t happen. I was a very exhausted bride. Thank God I still look like a human being LOL. So many thanks to you all at Lakshmi for the beautiful pictures. It barely shows that both of us are tired. I guess the exhaustion makes me forget to be self conscious. I have so many people to thank for so I guess si God na lang. All the blessing comes from God including the people who have helped me, us in everything.”

You’re welcome Rey and Charlene. It gives us so much happiness to know that you like the pictures we took on your most special day. Thank you so much. God bless! “_)

Marya + Cabagnot – Cagayan de Oro Wedding Photography

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

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!

Bonotan + Taguba – Surigao Wedding Photography

Saturday, April 17th, 2010

We arrived at Surigao at around 11 o’clock in the evening (really late since it was raining hard so we had to be super careful along the slippery road) while our call time is at 2 o’clock in the morning. We went around looking for food since we’re all starving. At around midnight we found noodles “_) Then slept at around 1 o’clock in the morning. Weddings are usually following the “pinoy time” meaning almost always a 2am call time will start at 3am. When we arrived at around 3am, we were totally shocked at how ready everyone was! The bride and her entourage were already made up including the family and sponsors! I thought I was early but I was proven wrong. Not everybody has the so-called “pinoy time”.

Surigao City
