Prenuptials for a very bubbly couple

This is my first prenuptials. First time in a place called Antipolo. First time doing a project/deal closed by me. Many firsts and I have to say I loved it. I had done some photo shoots for events and a couple for weddings. I know I have very good contacts when it comes to photography and videography -- who does not only know the craft but mainly has the passion for it. So, I took this chance to try my luck in closing a deal. First attempt and I closed it. No portfolio, no what-so-ever. (which made me nervous, very...very nervous during the first client meeting)

I almost lose hope, because for some time, they have not sent me a note or anything regarding our packages. I thought they preferred a team who they knew more and have had years of experience in the field. I just lift it up to GOD (Bahala na = si Bathala na). I just thought that whatever might happen, it will always be a good start for me on how to deal with clients (future). After all I always believe that there will always be some not so good experiences that will come across many endeavors that I will take. It will only rely on my faith and fate.

This couple was my first client (personal) for a wedding coverage. They were a friend of a friend who recommended me to the couple just after our first meeting. I thought he was just kidding me when he said he's going to recommend me to Joms and Edz to cover for their wedding. But was shocked to know that indeed Joms tried to contact me and asked me for a client meeting.

After the typhoon Ondoy I sent them a text message asking if how are they, having a home in Pasig one of the most affected areas during the typhoon and flooding. I tried to let them know that not only as my clients, they became my friends. That I am doing this project not only as a mere project but also as how I wanted it to be during my wedding preparations too. Love, weddings, marriages and family are the things that molds my soul in my everyday life. I love to see people who are in love with each other and who are so into the situation of building a home and a family.

I was very 'kinikilig' every time they speak to each other, how they reminisce the first time they noticed each other which was years ago. How they are very much at ease at each others company. They are a happy couple, easy to deal with and they know what they want for their wedding. A great factor to have our energies surge up high during the photoshoot.

I am looking forward their wedding day as they will say "to have and to hold".
