All About Photographers and Videographers Part 15

[xtineelayne]

Indemand is good. Kaso I've got a friend na sila yung kinuha kaso yung may-ari ng studio hindi sumipot on the day and nagcover ng ibang event. Maaasahan and maganda naman yung output ng team nya pero syempre medyo off pa din na wala sya during your wedding.

For photo, go with Law T (or check out Ralph Lee din ) Bad impression na sakin ang Gatz Creatives dahil sa pag-double book nya sa friend ko. Nauna magbook yung friend ko sa kanila pero ang pinadala nya is yung TeamB nya. Worst is, nagdahilan pa sya na maysakit yung anak nya kaya di sya makakarating. My friend found out months after na may kasabay pala syang wedding and dun nagshoot si Gatz.

Sobrang late ko na nabasa tong reply mo, we already booked them (Indemand) on our wedding, I immediately contacted them and Jerome's wife said that they only book 2 weddings per day nun kapag same area yung wedding and pwede mapuntahan ni Jerome both to do the portraits and SDE kasi un daw usually ang ginagawa ni Jerome, I also asked her if we can guarantee na si Jerome yung andun sa wedding namin and she confirmed na hindi na daw sila tumatanggap ng 2 weddings in a day ngayong 2019 we'll let see. Though, its not a big deal for me naman as long as [textspeak!] quality ng video hindi magbabago. I've also checked some feedback din sa ibang studio na mostly may team A and team B rin sila. So I'm very optimistic na everything will work well sa video team. Tiwala lang hehe. I've heard great things about them kasi since most of my friends sila yung kinuha na videographer. Our prenup shoot went really well and fun din at sobrang gaan katrabaho ng team nila at ni sir Jerome and the save the date was really amazing din! Sana ganun din sa wedding namin at di magbago [textspeak!] output nila, sana kagaya parin ng mga nakaupload sa facebook nila. Mabait at professional naman sila kawork so far..

Aw, sorry to hear about Gatz! Nag offer yung bestfriend ko na photographer na siya kumuha ng prenup namin kaya until today wala kami makita pa na photographer dahil sa sobrang dami rin nila at I can't seem to find someone na may "this is it" impact, ewan ko ba, pero parang feeling ko pareparehas.. not sure though. Baka kelangan ko pa ng review. I'll check Ralph Lee in the morning, do you have any idea about his rate?

Thank you!

^ Congrats sa prenup nyo! Yes, tiwala lang sa suppliers! And like I said, maaasahan din talaga yung team ni Indemand kahit wala si Jerome.

I think nasa 55k ang starting na ni Ralph Lee ngayon. He'll be joining the bridal fair sa June, yung "Toast". So, if interested ka may offer syang discounts during the fair. And true, ang daming magagaling na photo studios ngayon and meron talagang mga may similar styles. We chose Ralph kasi hanap ko yung light and bright style tsaka yung natural/candid lang. Madaming may ganyang styles pero ang naging edge ni Ralph for me is yung mga creative shots nya. Medyo may background din kasi ako sa photography.

When is your wedding pala? Hope makahanap ka na ng photographer. You may want to meet with them din muna before booking. Baka makatulong din kung sino yung makaka-palagayan mo ng loob.

I'm sorry if a Guy is posting a message here (feel free to delete if the community wishes too).

We hired Ralph Lee as well for our December wedding (10 yr civil anniv this year so we are doing a Church one this time). Very reasonable and mas nagustuhan namin sya compared to the following who are also available on our wedding date: Foreveryday, Blacktie Project, NicePrint, GJ Esguerra, CamZar, Camille Gonzales.

For Video, we have Jake Olaso. Other choices that are available are:  Paradox Films, Blacktie Project, Niceprint, Dreamechanics, Zoombox, InDemand

[winkar22]

^ Uy! You're very welcome here!

And another uy! Ralph Lee and Jake Olaso bride here as well! You can't go wrong with these two! Hanggang ngayon emotional pa din ako kapag napapanood yung SDEs namin.

Even now na may baby na kami, si Ralph pa din yung kinontak ko to cover my baby's baptism. Then si Ralph din yung kinuha ng brother ko for his wedding. You can mention me kapag nagkita kayo haha! Yung kinasal kamo sa Caleruega. Lol. Sobrang gaan ka-work both of them!

Hi! Yes thank you! Naiilang ako imeet sila, parang feeling ko nauubos [textspeak!] time nila nakakahiya eh 

[HandsOnGuy]

Thank you for the welcome.
Will mention to Ralph.

One more positive about Ralph Lee.

When he sent us his packages, I would have wanted the Premium package, kaso my wife and I decided na hindi na namin kailangan ng prenup photshoot kasi we dont have much time when we fly home sa December to do that stuff and besides, we don't feel we need it talaga since we're civilly married naman na for 10 years.  So yung lower package (his packages are Light, Basic, Premium) which Basic is good enough but I wanted sana to get the  100 pages premium artisan album 9x11" so I asked magkano  add-on if I do Basic pacakge but with an upgrade to the Premium album (Basic comes with 40 pages 10x10" hardbound album).  I was suprised when he said "I'll upgrade it to you for FREE" and I'll also give you an extra P8K discount and a guaranteed 4th photographer if we decide to book by May 1 (we starting emailing around April 27th, at this time I also reached out to a handful of photographers as listed above na available and those who responded that are not available).

Fast forward to April 30, Ralph emailed me asking my decision kasi someone inquired for his services for our same wedding date.  And he did not want to commit that the date is open to the other person who inquired until we said so.  I asked if he can give us 48 hrs to decide which he responded "take your time".

May 2nd, I realized that his offer is only up to May 1 so I asked again if his offer is still valid or already expired. To my surprise he said, "Don't Worry about it. I will honor the offer".  As soon as I received that response, I  emailed him the next minute to say "We are excited to work with you!"

[winkar22]

^ Yes! Super bait talaga ni Ralph! And masaya yan ka-work!

@xtineelayne, wag ka mahiya! Haha! Kami nga noon sobrang na-late kami sa meeting. As in one hour late. Pero in the end hindi si photog ang kinuha namin. Sa bridal fairs try nyo umattend, at least don pag nag-inquire ka masesense mo na din kung feel mo sila or hindi.

I got Peach Frost Studio as my photo and video team, they are super easy to work with. Lalo na sa prenup namin, Leo & Cheska were very fun to work with. We told them that we had no idea to pose, and we got all shots perfect! Nakakatuwa kasi we just copy what they're doing since couple din sila. Affordable din yung prices nila. May free boudoir pa ko sa wedding day ko mismo which is a bonus nadin!

I booked Peach Frost Studio for my wedding next year, so happy i found some feedback about them. Na excite tuloy ako.

So ayon, 6 months na kaming kasal, di pa rin kami nakaka pili ng photos para sa Album!

Can't decide between Law Tapalla and Lights & Flair

Ang gaganda ng shots nila kakakilig

[devilish_einjel]

Hi mga sis! Any Bob Nicolas brides here?  Even before I got engaged or even had a boyfriend  hilig ko na manuod ng Wedding SDE's and fan na fan na ako ng works niya. Super pricey lang, 145,000 + 18,000 (OOTF for Batangas). I know it will be worth it pero after ko magbasa dito, ang dami ko din nakita na videographers na magagaling din at mas affordable kaya torn tuloy ako. Can any of you girls share your experiences with Bob's team? Thank you!!!

[sunshine_000]

Hello, any feedback for Photofarm? Thank You! 

[sassy_gal18]

We booked Law Tapalla for our wedding next year because I like yung style and quality ng photos nya.

Kaso there were times pag nag bbrowse ako parang too bright yung mga picture to the point na nahhighlight na yung pagiging cakey ng make up bride Kahit ok naman siguro or yung mga flaws sa face.

I like Ralph Lee rin medyo namahalan lang si fiance before.

Hello po. Hihingi lang sana ako ng feedback for Kreative Machines.

Got married last weekend in our backyard. Sobrang happy kami sa outputs ng teams nila Mot Rasay (photo) and Jay Fagela (video).    Highly recommended! They are young, creative, and very easy to work with. Walang ere but very talented!

[xtineelayne]

Thank you for this posts and this thread! This is heaven-sent! A really big help to all bride-to-be's and couples planning their wedding! 70% of our suppliers are all recommended from this thread. We booked Indemand Wedding Films, they are very creative and really professional to work with. T'was really really fun working with Jerome Francisco, he's very hands on and make sure that there's no awkward moments between us while he do his work. He's really funny! He will make you laugh to capture your most candid laughter and smile. Sobrang babait ng team niya, napahumble nila, ganun din si Jerome, kung ikakasal ulit kami ni hubby sila pa rin kukunin namin! And oh, he's the man behind those creative shots from Coke Studio video episodes, we're really proud of him! I believe their team will go places! For the photo, we get Amilon Ignacio, we like bright and airy kasi, sobrang fresh lang. He's young but he's really passionate! I'm very proud of my photo and video team!

Happy planning sa lahat ng couple! Enjoy it!

We are to book Bob Nicolas na for our videographer, I am just having second thoughts. Baka masyadong mataas expectations ko sa kanya because of the videos from celebrities na nagawa niya tapos I will compare it to mine then di ko magustuhan.

Meron ba makakpagbigay ng first-hand experience with him? I?m a bit shy din and inexperienced sa shoot. Baka may personal review kayo mga sis? Thank you!

Hello, everyone! May maisu-suggest ba kayo na more affordable ?alternative? to Treehouse Story? I really love their wedding videos but we don?t want to splurge so much on this wedding. I?m looking for a team na candid lang but may storytelling sa video, not so much sa beauty shots. Thanks in advance!

Hi Sis, January 2021 B2B here. Dito ko nakita sa suggestions yung P/V supplier namin, Peachfrost Studio. Hindi mainstream mga gawa nila, and sa sobrang taas ng standards ni H2B, eto lang pumasa sakanya. Kht lagi namin pinapanood ang SDEs nila everytime may new upload, hindi nakakasawa unlike others daw na iisa yung ped for all SDEs. Hope I can help!
