next level

wedding cake taking photography quite seriously again. i’ve been thinking about it as my plan b when i get tired of the day job. i don’t see myself doing project management until i’m 50 years old :)

one thing i’ve been considering is events photography, with weddings at the top of my list. got the chance when Sunshot was invited to take photos of Ab’s wedding last Saturday. so when Nesty asked if I want to go, no second thoughts about it, I immediately said yes.

i never thought how hard it is, but after almost 7 hours of taking pictures (600 plus!) … from the hotel, to the church, then at the reception, i am now very much convinced that doing wedding photography is a very serious job. i guess Os and Jayjay also agree with me. you’re documenting one of the most important events in a person’s life. you have to be creative, alert and always ready to capture that once in a lifetime moment. di pwede ang babagal-bagal. dapat palagi rin may dalang extra batteries and CF (SD). at dapat at least dalawa kayo, you cannot be in all the good places all the time, unless na lang kaya mong magteleport instantly. and yes, you have to be fit … ang hirap magdala ng mabigat na camera at lens ng 7hrs ha! :)

kahit mahirap at nakakapagod, this is something that i can do again. practice makes it perfect … ika nga nila.

Go for it! You’ve got the talent plus you take really good pictures. I’m pretty sure you will capture all the good moments with the help of your future assistant.
