First of all I thought I would miss the biggest day of my sister’s academic life because I had a wedding shoot on her orginal date, but thanks to the famous H1N1 scare, their graduation date was moved from June 13 to June 20! Let me tell you how our day went.
We started off by heading over getting Tin’s make up done by the awesome Jesy Alto! My sis came out looking like a beach babe with her tan enhanced hehe.
Love how my sister just popped out from this picture. the red steps provided a wonderful contrast.
Tin with her friend Aika who helped us get a reservation over at Garden Gate.
Here’s Tin entering the auditorium.
Welcome to Hogwarts!
Loving the wideness.
There’s Tin getting up on stage for her turn.
Walking now, haha I think I’m a stage kuya
Getting her diploma.
Walking back to her chair.
Tine and I
Bunch of hats. Was hoping they would get to throw them but apparently they had to return them afterwards hehe.:D
Happy family
Tin and her friends.
And more friends
With the Dela Cruz Family
Presenting.. the graduate!
Some portraits before we left.
Off toa yummy dinner over at Dragon Gate restaurant!
It’s rare that I have pics with my gf Tine, but made sure we had plenty of pics during the day. Doesn’t she look lovely?:D
Love my siblings
Love my parents! So glad mom was able to come and happy father’s day daddy o!
Mga busog haha
Tine and I went with my sister to Mint in the Fort Strip and celebrated the night away. But left her after a while so she could enjoy her time with her friends.
A lovely Saturday and a great event for the family. Congrats to the other graduates as well!

Last May 16 I was given the opportunity to give a short career talk about photography in UP in front of about maybe 60 4th year high school students from different schools. It was organized by (teacher) Tin Tan, the wife of our fellow photographer Mike Tan. It kinda felt weird now being the one in front talking rather than be the one seated listening. My am getting old! haha
It was fun being able to share my passion for photography and hope got to inspire those kids to someday follow a career that they would love to do. 
Maybe some of those kids would be great photogs someday!
Thanks Tine for coming along and supporting me. hihi.
Thanks Young Einstein for the lovely pen and certificate!:D
Praise God for this opportunity and clearing my schedule to do this.
Showing some sample works.
Wowee! Many kidos!
Showing slideshows of weddings.
Getting my certificate

Pangil Beach Resort
We arrive at the resort after lunch, settle in, take a long nap and wake up for the LUAU!!!! haha The day was gloomy but at around 6pm, the sun suddenly showed itself and let out a glorious sunset skyline! It was my first time to simply stare into such beauty! We just had to grab Brian and Wig for some pics! Awessoooommmeee!!! Afterwards we prayed as a team together with the couple for great weather the next day and thanked Him for a glimpse the sun!
The families organized this Luau for as a treat for everyone who came. And my gosh was it such a feast!! I’ve never seen that much food! And to think this was just a pre-wedding party! haha! Let me walk you through the pics below..
Check out the glorious sun peeking out of the horizon! It was signal number 3 that day..
Here’s Brian and Wig posterized on this magnificent backdrop!
I super love love how this shot turned out!
So we returned to the function hall to be greeted by TONS OF FOOD!!
LECHON! bow..DROOL!
So you know which part of the buffet I hit hard.. haha
Friends and relatives prepared couple of dances to get the mood going! What a fun evening!
Even the kids were game!
That’s Heidi, putting on some dance moves haha!
Brian’s reaction to the dance number to come..
..from the mothers!
And this was the Ilocos Imagine Nation crew.. this was only day 1.. and we were STOKED already of things to come!
.. and STUFFED also! haha! Gotta love this job!
