I swayed both my arms as gracefully as I could. To the left, to the right, one hand in front, the other one at the back. I repeated the gesture together with a graceful sway of hips and little hops. I did a 360-degree turn and I faced up the skies. I did the sun dance in the middle of the street. I flirted with the skies like a bee does to a sunflower. Please hold tightly the rainwater with you, I gracefully asked the favor.

Thankfully, it did not rain.. and the shoot that Jeff and I have been giddy gracefully happened.

Here are some photos from our most recent post-nup shoot..

Hope everything is going graceful on your end! If not, you still have the whole day to twist things and make them your way. Happy day!

Scarfs + Memory Full

Posted on 13 January 2013 by Green and Purple Life in Photographs

Where are you? I texted Jeff as soon as I stepped in the mall. My stomach roared like a lion and I wanted to eat an elephant. I hunger for dinner then. I called him but duh. No answer. I was impatient so I called him again and again and again. Still no answer. I headed to the bookstore until I heard my phone rang FINALLY. I left my fancy idea of getting myself another book and headed straight to where we agreed to meet. It was right there I discovered, he got busy looking for a scarf to wear on the Bohemian wedding we will be shooting the following day. I insisted we look for another way for him to look like a Boho but no way, he was getting that scarf he saw at the department store.

Yes, the main photographer does all these things for love. This is him trying to look cool despite the heavy sweat all over his face.

Friends. Jeans. Shirts. Shoes. Music. I think we always have that friend whom we have a lot of common with. Below is Stephen, Jeff’s bestfriend. I am almost on the edge of believing that Stephen and his wife Ash are actually mine and Jeff’s siblings from another parents.

and so when both your memory card’s full because you missed taking photos that much.. you sit in the corner of the hall, watch how every attendee is wishing happiness to the couple, guard your colleagues’ bags on the floor and say a little prayer.. Thank You God for making sweet things happen.
