for everyone

It wasn't like i was a back-up photog in a wedding.

My master, Frank Dizon of Imagineer Digital, was tapped as videographer in a wedding held at the Miraculous Medal church in Paranaque. He asked for and got permission from the parties for me to take additional shots aside from those of the official photographer (who happened to be a relative of the bride).

It is difficult NOT being the official photog. The angles weren't quite right, and wala akong diskarte sa poses, saan tatayo, anong lights ang gagamitin etc. The most i could do is to be happy with the practice i was getting and hope that someday .... someday! .... i'd be able to come up with my own wedding shots.

Your comments (good and bad) are most welcome. :)

Were you able to read the Bible passage on the right? Zoom in for a better look. ;)

imagineerdigital wrote on Jan 13

Thanks, sir Caloy! My master set this up, i just took the photo. :)

i second ur opinion...was in the same situation before and it was really difficult being without control of the lighting, etc. had the permission of the couple but the official fotog wasn't so pleased when he saw me esp my dslr...masama ang tingin sa D80 ko =D
ur pics are nice. i like the hearts with the Bible verse sa side but don't you think it's too yellow? peace..

raymond42n wrote on Feb 8

Hahaha thanks! yeah, i wanted it yellow. I will always shoot in 'cloudy' setting indoors. ;)

reignman888 wrote on Apr 24

hi atty. though i am still a newbie in photography.. its a little dark for a ring picture.. since it is a wedding, most appropriate would be a nice glow to it.. then again, i must say its a nice shot too!

imagineerdigital wrote on Apr 24

next time po, lets shoot side by side by side with nap, atty! hopefully ok po june28... but until not yet confirmed, pwede ko na siwalat. hahahha. :P

raymond42n wrote on Apr 24, edited on Apr 24

@reign,

Thanks pare! I'll keep your comment in mind. Just that sometimes, my rebel streak in me erupts. One of these days, i'm gonna place a 'distort' layer on the rings hahahaha.:)

Seriously, your comment is spot-on; ring shots should be brilliant and shimmering (like pic 4179 and double 8). Nonetheless, do consider that the great artists were ones who blazed new trails; the ones who merely copied remained anonymous. ;) Hope to see you make a new trail someday. Cheers! :)

raymond42n wrote on Apr 24

Sir Frank, i would be honored to shoot beside Nap. Isa sa mga idol ko yan (pero master pa rin kita hehehehe).
