To lose oneself in love is liberating and
it is my privilege as a photographer to capture pre-wedding moments of couple
like Janine and Chris who have grown their relationship from being officemates
and decided to tie a knot.
We have been so enthralled by the candid
movements of the couple that guiding them how to pose and what to do became
easier. Expressions of love even with the way they gaze, smile and laugh at
each other were so vivid and natural we didn’t get a chance to do alterations.
We took the first shot at a coffee shop
with the backdrop of Bing Cariño’s artworks. The hovering paintings embossed
the couple’s connectedness in their calm and relaxing pose.
The second location was along Mabuhay
diversion road catching the couple’s adventure in a Volkswagen car. Their
effulgent smiles truly radiate fondness of each other’s company. And those
carefree movements allow me to capture a photo that tells an exhilarating love
story.
Then off we went to Kalsangi passing by
DOLE pineapple plantation and pine trees. The space for creative expressions
was vast and we were able to play with the sceneries. We took a wide angle shot
of the couple in a thicket of pine trees, with lights coming from the spaces in
between and the result was marvellous. The auroral light emanating from the
smoke colored bombs was poetically surreal and suggested dawning, a new
beginning.
In twilight, playing with lights while
maintaining the romantic atmosphere was challenging yet fulfilling as we
created an impressive output of Janine and Chris’ silhouette in their intimate
moments.
We use less props and less direction for
this shoot to emphasize artistic sceneries and the candid movements of the
couple. The artworks, landscapes, sceneries, light and shadow were all gathered
in a canvass of Janine and Chris’ affection towards each other that bears a
love story that will surely be remembered.
