After two full weeks of rest, I went back to shooting this past week here are some of my favorite images I’d like to share.
PJ and Chet’s Wedding, Mar. 18
The W@W Awards: Ten Ten Te10, Mar. 20
This is Weddings @ Work annual event and this year a special one since it’s their 10th year anniversary. During the afternoon, our Imagine Nation participated in the free prenups for W@W couples. It was one literally hot but super fun afternoon of shooting with the W@Wies and we even had 5 teams that shot that day.
Come evening time, we we’re tasked as the official photogs to cover the W@W 2008 Supplier of the Year Awards. Congratulations to all the Top 10 nominees and to the 2008 Suppier of the Year Winner! Tito Cecilio Abad, wedding gown designer. He truly deserves the award and I’ve shot a number of brides who has worn his gowns and I always admire his designs for its detail and creativity.
Guj and Chix’s Wedding, Mar. 21
Herbert and Gemma’s Wedding, Mar. 22
This was an out-of-town wedding held in Bataan last December. This was Jason De Guzman’s couple and I was his second shooter. For me, this was one of my more memorable that month since we really had to wake up early since it was a morning wedding and Jason also told me that the couple was game to have a portrait session after their lunch reception at the Bataan Monument, something to look forward to right 
By the way our groom , Dennis, is now part of our batch 4 apprentice program at Imagine Nation. Glad to have you on board Dennis! Here’s some of my favorite images from their wedding.
Here’s the after-reception shoot at the Bataan Monument….soooo coool!
Finally, I get to start blogging again. So many exciting things happening, I can hardly keep up posting on my blog. But I know this should not be an excuse so I’ll stop there. I hope to share more of my shoots from last December 2008. There’s so much images I would really love to share and here goes…
