Preparation: Summit Ridge, Tagaytay
Ceremonies: Chapel on the Hill
Reception: Splendido, Alfonso
Photos by: Megapixels Digital Studio
Videos by: Threelogy video
Coordination: Weddings by Victoria

It was my first time to be in Summit Ridge, Tagaytay.  It’s the new building in front of Taal Vista which opened just recently last 25th of June. Ton and Lea had a top floor room of the hotel. Awesome-awesome view of the Lake by the way! It’s a perfect place to start and celebrate!!!

The downside though, I find the room to0 small but Ton and Lea didn’t mind at all!  During the preparations, Lea, was literally expressing the tension but personally, i can’t see in front of the lens… She looked so cheerful and stressfree actually!

It’s a grand wedding they’ve prepared…  It’s a Wedding at the “Chapel on the Hill”, and a Gathering at “Splendido”.  It was an honor working side by side with one of the finest videographers in town Bong with his “Threelogy Video” team.  Their onsite video? it brought the house down!  It was definitely something… their friends shouldn’t have missed!

Here’s sharing with Ton and Lea’s beautiful Tagaytay wedding:

Ton-Lea (a 1920’s Prenup Pictorial)

Jun 26

Posted by Ferdie in Prenup

Posted by Ferdie Flores, MSCE, Philippine Wedding Photographer

Date of shoot: 24 June 2009
Makeup by: Jeng Sy-Flores Hair by: Martini

This was supposed to be an Outdoor Prenup Pictorial… but the supposed 2PM meeting became a 5PM start! Hehe!  And to make it more exciting, I was surprised to have found out that the couple wanted a 1920’s themed shoot!  Lea was feeling nausea so we ended up having the shoot at the studio!

Well… all hands up for another magic! – Photoshop magic that is!…

Here are the original photos…

and Whoooalaaa!  Here’s what we did for their guestbook, we chose to convert to sepia to have a feel of the 1920’s era:

Click here to browse through their guestbook! :) (a little patience though as the images will take time to download)…

I hope you enjoy your visit! :)

… and then in a little while… Ton and Lea’s Tagaytay wedding coming up next! …

We had Ian and Steph booked us for more than year… and now, I’m so excited to share with you, their Wedding!

I arrived together with Jeng (my wife/make-up artist) 2 hours early than the call time. So, i had all the time in the world to the preparations shots! :)   Allow me to share some of ‘em.  Actually, most of these images were already selected during their wedding day by Jeng. She did it for Ian and Stpeh’s onsite Photo AVP.  Saves me a lot of time reselecting them for this Blog! :) Here’s their onsite Photo AVP:… Hope you like it!

Giana Chloe turns 18 (12 June 2009) a Fernwood Gardens Debut Party

Jun 16

Posted by Ferdie in Birthdays, Fernwood Gardens, debut, on-site video

Posted by Ferdie Flores, Philippine Wedding and Debut Photographer

Venue:  Fernwood Gardens
HMU: Joel Miguel
Event Host: Loi Villarama
Event coordination: Loi Villarama Events Management
Lights and Sounds: Soundlevel

18 years ago Mt. Pinatubo erupted!  Yup, it’s been that quick… I was still in high school back then!  It was unforgetable for the Maragas Maramag family as well… it was the birth of Miss Giana Chloe Maragas Maramag… and check it out,  even whole country annually celebrates her day… It’s the Philippine Independence Day!!! Mabuhay!!!

We were commissioned to do an onsite SDE debut video for Giana… I think the most difficult SDE’s are of debuts.  Unlike weddings, the preparation is quite short since we’ll only be shooting the debutant’s few stuff!  Also, there wouldn’t be any church clips to play with for the video… and to make it more challenging, there is also the trouble of forcing the celebrant for a few extra pictorial shots for the video. What about the Element of Surprise?  For Giana’s case, it was a bit harder… we actually went through the Fernwood’s reception area backside kitchen since some of Giana’s guests arrived unexpectedly early…

Enough’s said.. here it Giana’s debut SDE video… I hope going all the trouble was well worth it! :) Enjoy!!!

Giana has now bloomed to be the Maragas Maramag’ very own Maja Salvador Princess… Here are more of Giana’s grand debut Party Photos:

Alvin + Reena (30 May 30 2009)

Jun 6

Posted by Ferdie in Diamond Hotel, Patio Victoria, San Agustin Cathedral, on-site video, weddings

Posted by Ferdie Flores, MSCE, Philippine Wedding Photographer

Event Date: 30 May 2009
Preparation: Diamond Hotel, Roxas Blvd.
Ceremonies: San Agustin Church, Intramuros, Manila
Reception: Patio Victoria, Intramuros, Manila
HMU: Jeng Sy-Flores for the bride with Carlan Teng
Wedding Coordination: Jhune Salud Coordination

Here’s another favorite of mine! :) Soooweeeet!!!

Alvin and Reena hired us for an onsite video. It was very, very difficult since we only had a single videographer with us. All our cams were out (it was a fully booked Saturday).  And what made it more challenging… Oh boy, the officiating priest was in a rush… he didn’t bother having a homily. Then, after the San Agustin wedding Ceremories, it rained whole afternoon, we didn’t have time for pictorials after the San Agustin Ceremonies.  We were running out of clips… Well, it ended up well i guess… I like it! I like it! Hopefully Alvin and Reena likewise! … We hope you like it as well! Enjoy!

The Photo shoot?  it was too easy… Both Alvin  and Reena were so confident and relaxed the whole time!  They were all having fun!  Special thanks to Jhune Salud and his team for pampering everyone!

I’d also like to express my gratitude to a friend photographer of mine who accompanied me to do this shoot… PJ “Peejay”  Villegas and his Sigma Fisheye Circular lens… gotta have one of  ‘em!  Many, many thanks bro! (check out some his works below, mine would have my insignia as usual) Read the rest of this entry »
