Heeeere they are!! After 14 long years of engagement, the firefighter (arjan) and the baker (diane) took vows before the Almighty at St. Barttholomew Parish in Catbalogan City last June 4, 2011. this has been one of my most exciting weddings i’ve ever photographed. i was involved in the very first day of conceptualizing and planning their pre-nuptial and wedding shoots. t’was really stirring and fun working with these two incredible people who are ridiculously in love! they planned and designed an absolutely gorgeous wedding with a well thought out workplan… no major detail was overlooked… oh yeah, thanks to their events designer (Christina Guy) and wedding coordinator (Marvin Gomez) who implemented and operationalized the plan successfully! 
without much ado, here are their photos!
love their motif!
Diane’s personal timeline 🙂
the waistline, is that 27.5?! 🙂
yeah, we’ll ride with you guys!
seemed that the front lens macro adapter worked even on 17-40mm lens 🙂
the symbol of where their love story started… yeah, no cellular phones yet during their high school days!
yeah, the wedding coordinator’s contact details 🙂
