Pre-nuptial pictorial Part 7

[karenmaechua]

Loved what you said sis 120515. At the end of the day, prenup is still about celebrating your love for each other

enjoy your prenups, everyone, no matter the weather or whether or not your shoot conforms with other people's perceptions of what a good prenup should be - your love will always shine through

[Maxim04]

Thanks sis barbecue. Ang saya pala mag pre nup. Fun experience talaga. Haha! Hayy can't wait to share the photos. But naghihintay ako 1 month before our wedding day before namin i share. Arte lang. Hihi 

Same here sis! Done our prenup last Thursday. The only day na hindi umulan sa Tagaytay! Yipee!!
Our raw photos will be after a month pa. Actually sa may river nga rin sana ang location namin. but since umulan the day before, the ilog will be brownish. Kaya naghanap kami ng location na indoor - yun nga lang we need to pay.. Sulit naman kasi we are there from 11am-8am. Hindi na kami siningil ng extra hours para sa extension! tee hee!!

sis sparklingjewel go for a prenup shoot! ako rin initially tinatamad but iniisip ko i want to document this milestone. after the wedding kasi, iba na inaatupag natin and moving onto different things na tayo. try to have yours in november kasi suppliers get super busy na in december diba?

sis tan.denise54 i find the shoot so pretty and classy too! ang galing ng photographer i think it's considered na a splurge if you have a shoot done at henry hotel. i'm sure there are other venues pa naman that are just as pretty and interesting.

About 70% sure na itutuloy namin sis because after recalibrating our expenses we are still about 100k within budget hehe so kaya pa yun pang prenup even if out of town. And yes we'll schedule it late November para not rainy na So defer muna prenup planning ko to Sept hehe loads of time pa. Yeah after wedding, honeymoon and condo renovation naman hehe!

I like the Sandra and Paul shoot na cozy but not the pool and garden shots.. there's something about the look-away-in-different-directions pose that i dont like, unnatural and paulit ulit pa. Mahal pala venue na yun? Di naman halata! Im sure there are more practical venues that look just the same.

Well done sis maxim04! Buti na lang hindi umulan, finally the prenup has been ticked off your list. share us photos ha

Sis tan.denise and barbeecue
That prenup at henry hotel done by foreveryday is so gorgeous!! I love it too! The emotions are so genuine and the subjects have pretty faces too which makes the whole prenup just beautiful. ang ganda ng prenup pag totoong masaya hindi puro arte lang.

[Maxim04]

Correct sis belle! May mga photos kasi na mukhang scripted lang hehe.

Sis belle_v2g yes it was soo pretty! it wasn't too stylized, very coordinated, and classy. ang ganda-ganda! Their photographer was very talented

sissies question, do you have a save-the-date video or strictly photos lang kayo for your prenup shoot?

[120515]

we just had photos

we're still thinking about whether we should get the pre-wedding video our videographer is offering us

[barbeecue]

sis 120515, kami rin photos lang for the prenup shoot. our videographer is offering us a save-the-date video at a discounted rate and i'm so torn if i'll get it or not. their sdes, trailers and save-the-dates are so pretty kasi! pero ayun, i'm undecided pa kasi i want to stay within budget... but their videos are beautiful talaga waaah hard to decide

That's what i thought sis, at wala sa styling talaga.  It's the beholder that makes it look classy too.

We didn't have a save the date video. Just 2 prenup photo shoot. The photos in our first e-sesh were used by our digital frame supplier and the frame was situated at the entrance. The photos naman on our 2nd prenup were used as fillers sa projector during dinner time. So different photos were shown all the time.

We only had a growing up video, sde and wedding photo slideshow shown during our reception. Darlene said too much videos, nakakaumay for the guests.

sissies question, do you have a save-the-date video or strictly photos lang kayo for your prenup shoot?

Professional photo lang kami for our prenup, but my friend will be shooting our behind the scenes during the shoot. Hindi kasi namin bet masyado yung directed na save the dates/engagement videos, so we really wanted just a documentation of the shoot. Kaya friend ko lang magshoot sa amin and we'll do the editing ourselves na. We'll play the video during the cocktail reception.

Sa growing up video nyo sis belle, naginclude ba kayo ng prenup photos din? Or hindi na? Mostly nakikita ko kasi is growing up photos ng bride, then ng groom, then together, then engagement photos. Iniisip pa namin kung gagawin pa namin to.

[belle_v2g]

Sis simang, ours is a growing up, getting to know the couple video. Started with hubby's growing up photos, then mine, how our paths crossed, we had baby kase so our son's photo was included. then we showed photos of our civil wedding too. No engagement photos included by the way. It was played before the reception started.

Guys need your advise please.. September 2015 na wedding ko but til now may problem pa din kami when/where to have our prenup.
1st choice is Sierra Madre, super love it talaga and yung fee for whole day photoshoot na and with room pa..
- but the problem is, yung HMUA namin may charge kapag lagpas ng 4hrs.. sa amin sya sasabay papunta at pabalik so in short whole day din sya
2nd choice Pan De Amerikana, nice place din.. kaso 2hrs lang ang binibigay nilang time for photoshoots...
3rd La Mesa Eco Park, ok lang din, kaso wala atang dressing room/prep room? At too common....

How many hours ba ang prenup P/V? And kailangan din ba for the whole prenup session kasama si HMUA? May alam pa ba kayong prenup locations sa Metro Manila na medyo at least 4hrs yung binibigay na time.

thanks po sa sasagot!

[sparklingjewel]

sissies question, do you have a save-the-date video or strictly photos lang kayo for your prenup shoot?

We had a prenup video only so far, which we'll show before the onsite photo slideshow and SDE on the day itself. It was a matter of preference and at that time my budget could only afford one. Also, true that some guests don't like a lot of AVPs (even though i sometimes do enjoy them hehe). We won't be having a growing up or couple AVP na so as not to add to this.

Now that we are within budget pala, we're still thinking about having prenup photos, but perhaps not to be shown in the reception, maybe for use sa cocktails nalang...

Thanks for the heads up from Darlene! I'll ask nga rin her input. Wala kasi kaming wedding photo slideshow sis eh. For the reception proper, we'll be having a 1.) slideshow of our photos growing up, then photos thoughout the years with friends and family and 2.) sde. Masyado bang konti? Our prenup photos I plan to have it on flashing on screen during cocktail hour lang.

Me naman sis simang I love the directed save-the-dates! There are corny ones out there na hindi ko type but the ones made by our videographer are so tastefully done pero ayun, it's a few thousands above our budget kaya pinag-iisipan ko talaga.

Pwede yan sis para your guests will have something to watch while waiting for you guys

sis maraonie23 usually 4 hours yung time for a prenup shoot for pictures. kasama na ingress-egress dun but if may video din kayo, mag-extend ng 2 more hours yun. if more than 1 layout kayo for the shoot, edi more than 1 makeup look ka rin - kelangan andun HMUA mo the whole time. if you read back on this thread may mga suggestions dito for other locations. pwede ka rin humingi ng location suggestion from your p/v supplier.

[Maxim04]

I am happy to share that may HMUA stayed until the last set. They followed me pa nga to retouch my face, offer tissue, add sprays, coil my hair. Felt that hindi sila after sa money. Importante - the passion to make us - brides - to have the best make up everytime during the shoot. 

[barbeecue]

Good to know you had such a caring HMUA sis Maxim04. Nice to hear about pleasant stories re: suppliers. From what I understand din sis, they're supposed to stay din talaga for the whole duration of the shoot - hindi dapat certain # of hours lang sila. They're supposed to finish the 3-4 layouts (as long as 1 day lang yung shoot). And on our end, we're supposed to make sure they're fed and hydrated the whole time.

[belle_v2g]

My hmua stayed the entire shoot too. We only had 3 sets anyway. I don't have a stylist so Thea and my coord plus Gail became our stylists that day.

depende sis sa terms na nakalagay sa contract mo with your PV/HMUA.  Sometimes kase half-day lang ang inluded na prenup shoot ni pv.. sometimes naman is whole day ang inclusion.  In our case, half day lang talaga ang kasama sa package na kinuha namin, but we had an oot prenup so parang naging whole day na. They did not charge us extra naman for the longer duration of shoot (we just paid the oot fee).  Kaya better check your contract and check with your PV din.  If you'll go oot, better inform them
Re: hmua, it depends din.  Sometimes kase, ang nakalagay sa contract, included ang on-location hmu and check mo din if one look lang ba siya or unlimited looks.  If one look, once ka lang niya make-up-an.. If unlimited, mag-stay siya till last set kase need to change looks everytime nagpapalit ng clothes.  Some hmua naman, they don't include prenup shoot sa package, only trial make-up ang included and it's on their studio.  So in that case, some brides go to the hmua studio, have the trial make-up there, then deretso na sa location after para yun na ang make-up sa whole e-sesh..

[rightback]

sis any of you had an out of town pre nup? question how many photographers usually yung sumasama?

[simang]

^sis rightback, out of town kami pero sa august pa. 1 photog + 1 assistant lang ang kasama namin. you can ask your p/v kung ilan sila sa team during prenup pero usual yang 1 photog + 1 assistant.
