Prenup Pictorial

MJ, my make-up artist, arrived at our house around 7am. She's with her loving mother. MJ started at 8am and finished my look at around 10am. We were scheduled with the photographers and videographers at 11am, so I thought we're on time. However, there is a heavy traffic in Alabang. We've finally arrived the meeting place in McDonald's Commerce Ave. at 11:30am. :(

We planned to have our prenup photoshoot at the Filinvest, Alabang, on the bicycle loop area. Unfortunately, the guard on duty required us to have a photoshoot permit first. Due to lack of time to process the permit, we decided to change our venue instead. Apple suggested that we can use the park inside their village, BF Heva. At first I was doubted the place. It is old and I know the playground is already rustic, but because I can't think of any other substitute, I agreed.

At this point, I am already super stressed that everything is not going as what is supposed to be. I just told myself that whatever happens, I just have to enjoy the moment. I don't want to forever regret not enjoying this once in a lifetime event in our (Frank and I) life.

At last, the shoot started at 12:30pm. I know everyone's hungry so I asked mom if she could have something delivered for us. Anyway, back to the photoshoot, I was never comfortable in front of camera with all the eyes of the people around us are staring. So at first, I was awkward and all, so is Frank. Apple and Faye are already teasing us why are we acting awkwardly. Haaha.. After sometime, I somehow manage to be at ease but Frank really can't. I know he really doesn't like being on the spotlight. Hahaha.. Ms. Jes of Santiago Alfonso Fotografia showed us some of their shots and I stand corrected for judging the park. It's beautiful there considering the fire tree's dried leaves on the floor.

Our first set-up was semi-formal. I was wearing a royal blue- laced dress and Frank was wearing a polo, mustard-colored pants and sneakers. Actually we don't want any set-up to be so formal. The second look was something bubbly. Frank was wearing shorts and long-sleeves shirt while I was wearing a crop top and high-waisted skirt. The last was the best of all. Frank and I are just wearing white shirts and shorts. What's special about it is we are going to be soaked.. in water! We'll be car washing the Strada and I've prepared water balloons as well. ;)

So here are some of our pictures:
