Chapters at Home with Bea | DIY Celebration
As God’s blessings continue to pour out in the lives of families inside a pandemic, one way to remain grateful is to accept the situation, trust that God has a plan, and continue to live a grateful life. For Irvin and Tina who have been blessed with three children putting God first is really a non-negotiable. We celebrated their daughter’s baptism at the Presentation of the Child Jesus Parish Church, followed by lunch at home with their family members who couldn’t attend the ceremony. A “Baptizoom” link was also provided for the friends who wanted to celebrate this milestone with Team Domingo. This event is made extra special because of…

Coming Home to Inay | Portraits at Manila Orchidarium
I’ve been photographing lots of young families lately, and have been assisting them on preserving their moments through print. While checking out my hard drive, I stumbled upon an old photoshoot that I felt was still relevant to share. Shooting weddings, portraits, and birthday parties, has really helped to grow my heart for families ( clients, and even my own as well). Can you Imagine how big your family may be around 25-30 years from today? Have you ever though that you may have actually given birth to the best of your friends? In truth, this really is, a Post Mother’s Day blog entry dedicated to moms of all seasons…

Andrei’s Acropolis Clubhouse Birthday Bash
Fairly recently, I found myself browsing through our family albums and birthday photos as a kid. Haha! Thanks to my mom who loved to take snapshots of our moments and milestones, I’ve got a way to imagine how things were. Perhaps I got influenced by this happy habit of hers, and when things went falling into place, here we are capturing moments with families and for families. On an interesting note, I first met Len, Andrei’s Mom, as a a Maid-of-Honor a few years back. I feel very blessed that, the friendship we shared during that event has lasted way beyond a day. Eversince then, we’ve shared quite a number…

Party for a Champ: Rum Turns Two!
Our hero Rum, just turned two! This little guy, my super cute nephew, is the first in our family’s next generation of champions. I love how he has brought so much love and togetherness ( and pictures!) to our family. His first photo shoot with us was when he was about six months old. The photos are still available at this blog. You can check them out here! Pocket-size reunions now happen on a semi-regular basis just because we want to play with him, and we want to see how much he’s grown from the last time we saw him. It’s always a good time! For his birthday, his cool…

Regina: The Mother of Summer | Maternity Portraits Session
A few months back, we joined Regina in welcoming her baby girl named Summer through a maternity photo shoot. It’s quite a joy for us to be spending quality time with her, the second time around, since she was first our bride at Benjie Tiongco Photography. Hers was a morning wedding. As we enjoyed photographing her, this time as a mommy-to-be, we saw in her that same radiance, that of a bride on her wedding day. In this photo shoot, we could still imagine her holding up a beautiful bouquet! It’s amazing. Through this shoot, we opened up a new chapter with her called “Pretty Preggy!” Hair and Make Up…

Love Lynne’s Lovely Baby Shower
It’s always a good time when family members come together to celebrate stories, waiting to be written. Yes! I can already imagine how parents just like Love Lynne and Ray, would have more and more colorful moments to count, when their baby is welcomed into their beautiful life and beautiful home. We did her maternity portraits at their house, while the rest of the family was busy preparing for her, a Baby Shower. Steph (Love Lynne’s younger sister) shares that she got inspired by the works of event stylists in our previous shoot together. After that, she sourced out ways to create small decorations that would make the house party…

Kristel’s Maternity Portraits | Rizal Park
I’ve said it before but I just want to say it again. It enlarges the heart to be celebrating milestones with our past brides and grooms and I really feel blessed whenever I get to reconnect with them! I got to know Kristel and Joey first when they booked me as their wedding photographer. Originally, these two crazy and amazing people wanted to have a sports-themed engagement session ( prenup photo shoot) to celebrate both their passion for sports writing. Whew! But they really had a tight schedule back then — zooming from one sports coverage to another. So they just decided to hold a post wedding photo shoot instead.…
