Tim + Karen – Tagaytay, Enchanted Kingdom, Manila E-Session

Tuesday, October 19th, 2010

So much to do, so little time. Tim and Karen are already cramming but they’re doing it with finesse. Tim’s from Cebu and Karen’s from Cagayan de Oro (Cd0)  but both are currently working in Manila. Wedding’s going to be in Cdo so just imagine how they’re coping being away from all the preparations. Even our E-session was canceled a few times because Tim’s busy with work even on weekends. But alas! Tim and Karen experienced and felt how models are and how it’s not easy to pose and hold the position till the photographer says it’s ok to breathe again! I know it wasn’t easy for Tim to ride a cable car hanging and swaying almost a hundred feet away from the ground but they were able to pull it off. We had a blast! Thank you Tim and Karen! See you in Cdo soon! “_)

Steve + Chai – Cebu City E-Session (1st Day)

Wednesday, October 13th, 2010

Lakshmi Photography’s first venture in Cebu City! We’d like to start by thanking our lovely couple Steve and Chai for the opportunity and for choosing us amongst the pool of photographers they’ve searched nationwide. It’s a great honor to be chosen by you :) We’d also like to thank my tito, Mr. Rene Araneta for accommodating us for the 3 days that we’ve been in Cebu. It’s always a delight to stay at my tito’s house for they not only serve sumptuous, mouth watering food but I also love the company and wisdom he always shares that inspires me to do better in the field of photography.

Our first day was all about fun. The team went to see Legend of the Guardians in 3D at IMAX. We were able to relax and on our second day in Cebu was our first day of shoot. It was our first time to meet Steve and Chai. There were some odd moments at first but later on we were laughing and enjoying the day.  Half day actually since we were only able to shoot in the morning till noon. After lunch, when we were on our way to our next location, it rained that we decided to skip it and head our way to the third location at Mantayupan Falls in Barili. Rain stopped, we thought we could have good shots with the magnificent falls but we were all dismayed to see  how angry the flow of the water was and at how brown its color was. On our way back, we just chose random spots to have a few shots. We were supposed to go to Mountain View to catch some night lights but the couple were already exhausted from the trip so we decided to just feed our grambling tummies and call it a  night.

More pictures of our second day will be posted soon. Were we able to shoot or did the rain prevent us from having good pictures? Find out soon! “_)

Calamba + Sardane – Iligan City Wedding

Tuesday, October 12th, 2010

It was all so surreal. It was as if I was taking images of a romantic movie. Aris and Gen’s wedding was overflowing with love. It was the first time that I felt something so true and spontaneous. Everybody was in tears. Both of their parents were touched of Aris and Gen’s revelations, including the Bestman’s too! When Aris spoke it was as if I was also feeling his love and it captured everyone’s attention. When the Pastor announced that Aris can kiss the bride, it was as if he won a multi-million dollar pot money! To Aris and Gen, may you continue to inspire everyone of the love you both share. Best wishes, good luck and God bless! “_)

Bj Mae – Predebut – Xavier Estates Sports and Country Club, Cagayan de Oro

Tuesday, September 28th, 2010

Mommy Jane’s baby is now a lady. Sweet Bj Mae turns 18 in November. She will show the world how she has blossomed into a beautiful princess. See how her beauty shined in spite of her shyness in front of the camera. We started shooting at around 3 pm, then after about 10 minutes it rained! It rained and rained and rained for more than an hour! Everybody was chasing the rain away, especially Mommy Jane :) After what seemed to be an eternity, the rain finally stopped! Thank you, Lord! :)

It was so hard to shoot with the cloudy sky but we were able to pull it off. Great job Mae!

Special thanks to Ms. Alma Mae Roa of Cameron’s for the gowns and to Allan Sajulga for the makeup. See you all soon on Mae’s big day!
