Road Trip #19: The One with the BTS of Prenup

On our prenup, we are accompanied by my bridesmaids, Judz and Ate Raqs. They gave us moral support and served as backup/bts photographer (judz) and on-location hmua for retouch (ate raqs).

Thank you, housemates! :)

Nung patapos na yung shoot, nakita namin ang aming Physics Professor from College na si Sir Emman!

Ang comment nya pagkakita nya samin, "Ang baduy!".hahaha.

Sayang, sana nakita namin siya earlier para nakapagshoot sana kami sa loob ng PhySci building...

Road Trip #18: The One with the First Prenup Shoot

Date: September 30, 2012
Venue: University of the Philippines - Los Banos
Photographers: Framed Up Productions
HMUA: Anne Garcia's Face Art

We decided to have a PRE-prenup in our Alma Mater since dun kami nagkakilala and the place is a big part of our story. :)

And we wanted to have a practice before our Prenup with our Main Photographer and the Wedding.

Since this is just a 'NICE-TO-HAVE' shoot, I have to look for affordable suppliers to do the shoot. With the help of W@W, I shortlisted some photographers na gusto ko yung mga Portfolios, inquired and haggle with them. Among the list, Framed Up Productions replied fast and gave us a very good price. And with that, we decided to book them.

Regarding naman sa HMUA, I already have an Entourage HMUA in mind before pa, I decided to try her na din and use it for this prenup. (See my other blog for this)

We started the prenup shoot around 12pm yata. We started with solo shots para daw sa facebook profile.hahaha. Then, couple shots na. Before palang, sinabi ko na ayaw ko ng mga sobrang sweet (kissing) pose. Ok na ko sa mga pa-cute lang. :)
We have 3 sets of clothes na ginamit during the shoot, and we have initial plans on what particular place to use each set. Pero ang tagal pala magshoot on each venue, kaya hindi na natuloy lahat ng planned venue namin. Pero okay pa din kasi mostly sa mga ginamit naming venue, wala akong picture dun from my college years.

We have yet to see the Raw Pictures from FUP, but from the teasers they have posted in Facebook...
We love it! :)

Teaser Pictures from Peter:

This is a picture from 'Kwek kwek tower'. I really don't remember the actual name of this tower. Ang galing lang ng shot, di mo aakalain na ito yung tower na lagi naming nilalait nung college kami.hehe

 

Hindi ko alam kung anong department/building ito, pero dito namin na-achieve yung classroom/school feel na gusto namin.  

 

 

From gilid ng Main Library:

 

The last picture is from SU Building. Bawal talaga magshoot dun pero nagpaalam si Peter to shoot kahit sandali lang. Ang galing lang kasi hindi ko nga naaalala na may ganyang place pala sa loob ng campus. :)

 

Syempre, hindi pwedeng mawala ang picture with Oble!

Road Trip #17: The One with the Face Art

I had my trial with the Entourage HMUA that I am eyeing last September 30, 2012.
I used it for my Prenup shoot in UPLB. I didn't hire her for an on-location HMUA kaya I opt to try her Airbrush make-up para it will last longer.

We went early, around 6am sa Condo niya. This is where she lives with her family. Nameet namin ang kanyang cute na baby. :)
Right after we arrived, nagstart na agad ang make up.
(She has this make up booth with mirror and light bulbs that will make you feel like a celebrity. This is my first time na magpamake-up na hindi sa parlor, please excuse my ignorance.hehe).
She started with concealing my pimples, then foundation na. (Foundation lang pala ang ginagamitan ng airbrush, akala ko lahat.hehe.)Then, she moved on sa eyes where she did na pinakamatagal. I especially liked the eyebrow, ang linis lang. She asked me kung anong colors ng isusuot ko, after I told her nagdecide na sya on what color to put on my eyes, cheeks and lips.

Tahimik lang siyang magmake up with konting mga comments and advices, but it is not awkward naman. Sabi nya ang advise nya sa mga brides nya with soft hair (stubborn hair) ay wag mag conditioner for a week or mag-bareta (laundry soap bar) day before the wedding para it will be easier to set come the wedding day.

Here's my look after the make-up session with Anne. (I forgot to take the BEFORE look).

Picture of me and Anne.

Since nagustuhan ko yung make up nya, I booked her na din agad for Entourage of my friend's wedding  and mine. Another check on my list! Yehey!

Road Trip #16: The One with the first fitting of 'The GOWN'

I had my first fitting with tito Boy last Sept. 23, 2012. And I was so happy with the results!

We arrived around 9am sa shop ni tito Boy. Gusto ko lagi super early para solo ko ang attention ni tito Boy, hehe. There's a bride na nagfi-fit nung dumating kami. Hindi ko masyadong feel yung gown nya so medyo kinabahan ako sa gown ko. Pinipintasan din ni tito Boy yung design nya kaya natawa nalang ako. Naisip ko nalang na kaya naman may N numbers of fittings para masatisfy ang bride sa gown nya.

We have to wait for my turn, kasi kasama nung bride before me ang buong family nya and syempre she consulted with them pa. 

Nung turn ko na, tito Boy assisted me sa pagsuot ng shell nung gown. Here are some pictures of the fitting:

I got so excited with my gown after seeing the shell. Nagkashape kasi ako at feeling ko nagkaron ng saysay ang pagkakamatay ko sa pagdi-diet.hehe.

I tried to sit down if comfortable pa din at nakakahinga pa ko. Ok naman but i have fats na visible sa likod (I need to work on that area, but I don't know how...)

We are scheduled for 2nd fitting of my bridal gown on the 2nd week of November, sabay na din ang Suit fitting ni h2b. We are both excited!
