LavanderBlossom: Beautiful wedding!! Your gown and engagement ring are gorgeous!!! You are also very pretty and sexy!!! May you have a blissful married life!

Hi mga sis, ask ko lang kung normal po ba na umabot ng 7months yung pag bigay ng photos(raw and edited) samin ng supplier namin? Hindi ko po kasi alam kung ganon talaga katagal e. Nakakausap ko naman si supplier kaya lang minsan "seen" lang ang message ko and minsan nag rereply naman kapag magbibigay na siya ng reason to delay. Iniisip ko baka ineedit pa or kung ano man. Pashare naman ng experiences ninyo. Thank you!!

[stylus]

We got raw copies of all photos and videos from our p/v supplier the day after our wedding. Around after 2 weeks, we got the official copies na in cds. From there pipili kami ng gusto namin ilagay sa album na di pa namin nagagawa.. 4 months na nakalipas. Buti pinaalala mo sis

[iamfarrah]

Beautiful wedding sis LavenderBlossoms. You look so radiant! Btw, who made your gown and your entourage, they look amazing.

[meixin]

@yyaaddzz: depende rin yun sa photographer mo and kung gaano sila ka-booked. Yung sa akin kasi nasabi na niya sa akin na peak kasi nila ang -ber months to feb so normally di pa sila nageedit ng panahon na yun, kuha lang ng kuha ng pics. after that tsaka sila mag eedit ng fulltime. So kung September bride ka nila, expect to get your photo mga march pa

Hello everyone!  Just finished shooting our pre-nup video today with Treehouse Story.  We're based in the US and they happen to be in town to cover another wedding so nakisabay nalang kami and took advantage of them being here to do the prenup na din.

Grabe, all I have to say is that working with Patrick and Alesi made us feel that we really made the right choice in getting them as our videographers.  It was only supposed to be a quick shoot because I wanted it to be simple and nothing too dramatic.  We just wanted them to showcase what we do and how we are as a couple, so I said, no need na for a lot of aerial shots, let's just make it quick, kahit 3 hours max lang pwede na. We started filming before 10am then finished at around 5:30 na!  To think na their flight back to the Philippines is tonight, talagang they took their time and we never felt hurried or rushed just so they can take the perfect shots. Sobrang accommodating nila.  Patrick even added a lot of other creative concepts so he made us change pa into formal wear so that they can really produce nice aerial shots kahit na I was okay with not having it.

We are so happy with them!! I even saw some samples of the shots that Alesi took using the drone and I was just wowed by it.  They really think out of the box, sobrang galing talaga nila.  So if any of you are thinking of booking them, don't think twice about it.  I highly recommend them.

Hi sis! this a very helpful review kasi sila din ang videographer namin, though I haven't met them yet. The reason why we booked them dahil magaganda yung existing SDEs nila Pero we didn't have na a prenup video kasi medyo di na kaya sa budget Pero at least happy kami to know that we are in good hands

[rowan]

I got Treehouse too! I hope both Patrick and Alessi will both be there in our wedding. I heard if may kasabay na wedding, the 2 will split to lead 2 groups.

Hi sis kdramaholic!  Dapat din wala na kami prenup video since we didn't have time to do it kasi we'll be back in Manila 10 days before the wedding nalang eh. They just asked if we were interested since they have a shoot coming here in the US so go na! You're in really good hands sis, it was just Patrick and Alesi who did our shoot here and they had a friend assisting them lang pero ang galing pa din and sobrang efficient. Na confuse pa ako kasi their rates are different for the Pre-Wedding package and the Save the Date video.  We only paid for the Pre-wedding kasi eh, but with the concept I wanted, dapat pala Save the Date kinuha ko which is a stand alone concept and almost as long as an SDE na.  Sabi ni Patrick he won't charge for the extra na. Super bait!! Nagka-crush tuloy sa kanya yung isa sa mga bridesmaids ko. Hahaha!

Hi sis rowan! Hay  nako you will love them!  I'm having a bit of separation anxiety having spent the whole day with them just having fun and being goofy tapos ka-chat ko pa sa Patrick and my coord while he was at the airport.  In case they have 2 weddings scheduled for the day, I will still feel confident having just one of them around.  Of course, magkaiba talaga sila ng expertise.  Si Alesi is sort of like their drone master, he was the one who did our aerial shots, and he also did our close-up shots from different angles.  Patrick is more of the creative director, he was the one visualizing the concepts and piecing everything together to make a story.  Of course, having both of them on board during your wedding is the most ideal scenario, pero they're so versatile that I'm sure they can handle their own teams if needed talaga.  It's like having 2 versions of Jason Magbanua and Bob Nicolas.

Hi sis! sabi nga din ng photographer ko, pag may kasabay na wedding they might split huhuhuhu! Wag naman sana

[kdramaholic]

hi sis Tinsflor wow! they are so nice naman to do that we are so lucky to have them as our videographer! I saw nga Patrick and yeah he is good looking

I don't know if you guys were able to hear about Happy Wedding Production, but for their basic package of 69k with photobooth, SDE video and photo, plus frame and guestbook for me hindi worth it. I have no idea as well if new lang sila, but with their output I wasn't satisfied even some of the others as well who atttended the wedding.

I have been a part of a coordinating team for a long time, so madami na rin akong nakita na SDE even with my own wedding. Ayoko lang yung na-experience ko with HWP kase aside from being unprofessional, yung mga shots nila mapapakamot ka sa ulo. (wedding of my close friend)

* During photoshoot with the bride, shempre they'll give you instructions. There was a part na kunwari tatanggalin namin girls gown ni bride then isusuot sa kanya. I wanted to make sure and asked, then the photographer said hindi ma'am sakin mo isusuot. If it was a joke or something, it sounded sarcastic. The whole time ganun sha. I mean okay lang mag-joke to lighten up the mood, pero dapat professional ka pa rin shempre you're working for your client. They were vaping pa nga inside the hotel's room na vacant, watched NBA as well with us. I dunno but for me it was wrong. I worked with 24 Frames pero they were very professional, serious sila sa work nila but they were friendly, no bum time for them and they also stayed in their area conceptualizing ideas to the point na ako na lumalapit and my MOH that time if they need something.

* Ang dami nila! I think they were a team of 8-9. I don't know if this is normal especially hindi ko pa naman nakikita/nakakasama yung ibang photovid suppliers.

* Nung pinakita yung SDE ng photos nakakaloka! Inisip na lang namen di ba sila marunong mag-rotate ng pics kase madaming pics na nakatagilid yung head mo na lang mag-aadjust. Then may mga kuha pa na may kasamang arm ng ibang tao, against the light. Ewan ko ba if they meant to do that hay!

* Yung SDE video okay lang rin, kaso walang story. Panay bouquet pa ng bride pinapakita as in ang daming frames na ganun. Naloka pa ako kase yung rotating shot sa labas ng church yung nag-kiss sila, nakikita rin yung ibang photographers and videographers sa frame which is yung iba naman strict talagang isa lang ang kukuha para shempre maganda sa video. Grabe yung pag overlap ng music/dialogues hindi ba sila marunong mag-fade ng music or boses kase ang pangit pakinggan sa video.

Naku with that price, I should've gotten yung pricey na rin na tried and tested like A&A Photography. But then I respect naman the couple because it's their wedding. I just shared my sentiments para maging aware rin yung mga couples na ikakasal who's scouting right now.

sis annasui, medyo malaki na ang budget na 69k for a basic package. I do not recall reading that P/V supplier here before. Sayang naman ang ginastos sa kanila

One of the reasons I booked a separate Photo Team and Video Team is fear na if iisa lang ang supplier if pumalpak, palpak lahat. At least with separate suppliers, forte nila ang gagawin nila.

I'm having my prenup shoot next Saturday with Shoot Me Photo and I started looking at Photo inspirations but then I realized na ang gaganda ng shots ni Jayson sa previous weddings and prenups niya so I will trust his creativity with the shoot.

Just got all the raw files from our photographer J Lucas Reyes and I was so amazed at how many photos they took!! =) =) The bridal prep alone had 1600 photos taken by him and the assistant. Also, he took all the details of the reception, even down to the individual place settings with the gifts of the sponsors placed on top and even the menu cards.

Our wedding portraits were really good too. Hubby and I have about 1000 portraits!! We really got wayyy more than what we expected from JLR. He and his team are just so amazing. Absolutely no regrets!

P.S. Also soooo happy that my sister gave me a very pretty La Tercera Nikki robe! The robe just looked so good in the photos!!! Sulit  din pala to invest on a nice prep outfit-- especially if your photographer really takes a lot of prep portraits like JLR! =)
