It’s been a decade since I started as a professional wedding photographer. The very first wedding we covered was in Subic which was the wedding of Eric Paragas and Ali Gordon last January 9, 2000. Since then, we’ve been a part of close to a thousand weddings.
How was it, you may ask? I can say that the last decade was my most fulfilling experience and obviously the happiest decade of my life. Truly, I over-exceeded any dreams and expectations I have back in Y2000.
There were acoustic and bossa nova in music. There were spot coloring and wacky poses in photography. There were the white album and Art Leather. You hardly see them now and I’m very proud to say we’re very much active and continually evolving.
What do I see in the next ten years? What am I up to?
Last May 2001, I introduced my digital storybook which became a norm in wedding albums now. It’s one contribution to the Philippine wedding industry I am very proud of. Now, I’m hoping to contribute to the world. I need your help to do that.
In the past decade, I was trying to be the greatest wedding photographer. I’ve been taught that one needs to take great pictures to be able to become a great photographer.
But this is what I learned…
It’s not how good you take pictures but how good you feel about the pictures you take.
Have yourself a blessed New Year!
