ilocos! and then some

what a way to start november. our clients, joe and ritzie, together with friends gave in to our idea of having a prenup over at ilocos from vigan to patapat viaduct. after some meetings, all are set to leave for a 4 day prenuptial shoot. we didn't expected that we will be having a blast!

woohoo! so, we all prepared, hunkered down for what will be 14 looong hours of driving. every now and then, we pause for a break and some stretching... sheesh! legs bent and eyes tired, we finally reached our destination. aahhhh.... now for some serious work ASAP. :) just past ten pm on november 01, we started shooting at Fort Ilocandia.

then, we rested for the night and prepared for another hour or so of driving towards pagudpud. we homestayed at their friend's house at burgos and proceeded to go shoot at Cape Bojeador Lighthouse.

further down, our site for the day is now on sight, pagudpud. took some shots while waves as big as bungalows crash the beach. what a sight to behold! white sand in the northern philippines :)

going back to burgos, we stopped by the awe inspiring gigantic windfarms at bangui bay. catching the fast sinking sun over the horizon, we captured some of the most romantic poses we have. here are some of the shots we did. oh, did i mention, the waves here are larger? now, they are taller than 2 storey houses with basement. oh man!

we still have two days to go and yet, we have more than enough materials for the PVP (Prenuptial Video Presentation)...

...to be continued

ilocos and then some

it was a week full of activities and the anticipation kept boiling! we suggested a prenup at bangui bay to our clients, joe and ritzie, who agreed on the idea. so, we set up a date and preplanned all itineraries for the loongggg looonnnggg shoot. :)

prenups! prenups!

what a week it is! having had accompanied my wife to her OB the last week, this week is spent more on doing what we do best, going out and taking some amazing shots of couple-clients.

we started the week with much much much rain, but oh, what the heck, we still continued shooting for francis and ruth's prenup at the greenery, bulacan. the place is good, something like an old english village of sorts (methinks i'm transported to another country). but man, its quite far from what we expected :)

anyway, here are some shots we had taken :)

a baby girl!

accompanied my wife to her OB last friday. she underwent some lab tests and then ultrasound... after 15 exciting minutes, and some tears of joy from my wife, the radiologist finally said what we're pining to hear.

it's a girl! and typed FEMALE on the screen :) oh my! i produced a baby girl. to put the radiologist's comment on the blog: "hamburger nakita ko eh, hindi hotdog" whoa! a female dizon at last. see, we are 5 brothers and most of our cousins are male. she is the first great grand daughter of the family (my lolo and lola are still kicking it up), the first grand daughter to both sides.

i'm sure, she will be a bright girl and will be the star of both families. i will be a father next year! whoopeedo!

edit edit edit.....

now with the looooong weekend, we are deep into work work work. seems pretty obvious! :) will get to blogging later. have some things to rush and some things to share.

vodka cruiser and then some

my day started, well, late. :) woke up around 3 pm after a full night's editing. had to do editing immediately and prepared for a meeting at trinoma. grabbed a quick dinner at chef d'angelo. had their cheese pizza with a lil pasta and red sauce. then off we went to the newly opened landmark supermarket, and whaddaya know.. they still have those buy 3 get 1 free vodka cruisers. i'm not a drinker, but i get to like these alcoholic drinks! :)

soon, we went up to catch 'i now pronounce you chuck and larry'. it was a hilarious movie! man, jessica biel is hot hot hot! better still, we got ourselves a real real real milkshake. i forgot the name of this ice cream parlor but it was a blast. so much flavor and silky smooth milkshake.

headed home after for more editing. catching up in post for the previous months' shoots. :) expecting some more clients later today.

blog resumption

after getting buried with post production (which got sidetracked since my dad suffered cardiac arrest), multiply, and facebook uploads, i finally got time to post in our blog.

resumed playing badminton and will be entering a friendly competition later at 3pm. as of now, i just got back from a post game dinner with hazel's family, and erick, my business partner at a chinese resto near casino filipino at mabini.

had several slices of squid, some fried ribs and pansit :) more than enough for the night. i also remembered i still have a pan of brownies i ordered.

that's it for now...

mister kabab

just dropped by mister kabab a while ago. brought two of the staff with me for some good ol' keema with bread and shawarma. oh, don't forget the yogurt shake with it.

sure beats the hunger from late night editing :)

finally, a blog!

as bloggers are sprouting up left and right, we contemplated on having our own blog. now, with quite a few minutes of free time, we have created our own blogsite.

this blogsite will feature our latest activities week in and week out, as well as updates to our online links, and our website.

feel free to give feedbacks and comments.

thanks!
