April & Nelson: A Wedding Documentary

View slideshow here.
More photos here.

April and Nelson had a wonderful wedding. And I was honored to document their most special event.

This was no ordinary event, not only because its a very special union between April and Nelson, but also this was the first time I'll be documenting a wedding unconventionally - - as a bystander.

More photos and full story after the jump.

I wanted to give April and Nelson moments that their hired photography will not be able to get. You see, a wedding photographer has so many things to do during the event. From knowing the program and coordinating with the organizers to get all the "important" shots to editing on site and preparing the on site presentation. Unless they have 6 or more people to handle the whole group, the photographer would miss a lot of moments that a couple would like to remember of their wedding. Plus knowing the couple, I know when and where to take their photos to convey a story that the couple would surely smile and be fond of. Here's some of the shots.

The bridesmaids (notice how almost all of them were taller than the men!):





A very anxious groom...
The kids:

The bride...


Some random shots...

Finally some shots of the couple....



I hope the couple is having a great honeymoon in Palawan.
