Lofoten, Norway

Lofoten Islands, Nordland, Norway. This is the northernmost place that I've ever been to. [Arctic Circle First-timer: Achievement unlocked.] And yes, the Midnight Sun calls for a Led Zeppelin soundtrack. Go rent a car, take the insanely scenic drive - or arduously long bike ride - from either Leknes or Svolvær all the way down to Sørvågen. Go forth and flood your Instagram feed.

Reykjavík

Geysers, black sand beaches, a surreal plane crash site that’s worth a 4km trek, street names that could be any given track from a Sigur Rós record, and Bæjarins Beztu Pylsur - Anthony Bourdain and Bill Clinton's favorite hotdog*. 

That one… (if you only have time for one...)

…place to shop/concept store: Geysir
…bookstore: Ida Zimzen
…bookstore where you’ll actually buy something: Eymundsson
…breakfast spot: Cafe Loki
…fast food guilty pleasure: Baejarins Beztu Pylsur (literal translation: “best hot dogs in town”)

*Recommended by Anthony Bourdain and Bill Clinton. Tony’s taste has always been a hit-or-miss for me, but when it comes to hotdogs, Bill definitely knows his stuff.

…fancy meal: SNAPS
…forgivable tourist trap: Church of Hallgrimur (Hallgrímskirkja)
…place for Dudes: Lebowski Bar. Seriously.

Stockholm

Just six hours. 'em ridiculously photogenic Swedes. Followed by a quick trip to Norway. …and another six hours. Sorry, no travel tips. Except for three things:

1. Go visit "Papercut AB". It's the 2nd best Indie Magazine store in the world, next to Hong Kong's Kubrick IMHO.

2. If, in your lifetime, you only have one chance to visit Stockholm, do it when you're about to move into your brand new house (and you haven't bought anything yet). No, I'm not talking about stuff from IKEA.

3. Södermannagatan corner Skånegatan. Perfect spot for street photography and people watching.

Vienna

Vienna is perhaps my most frequently visited European city, but ironically, until this recent trip, I've always been too busy to see the real Wien. Thanks to Airbnb, I was "forced" to see what's beyond Innere Stadt, and, believe me, there are plenty of cool things to do there if you're not fond of museums and opera houses. Vienna is a hip city - with Monocle and CitiX60 having travel guides for it, then it must be hip indeed.

Airport to Downtown Train: Yes.
Free Wifi: Almost everywhere.
Can I drink from the tap? Yes. Best tap water in Europe if I'm not mistaken. 
Metro system: As straightforward as Hong Kong and Singapore.
Playmobil is relatively cheaper here. Than Paris and Italy for example.

Where to Eat
Käsekrainer: Bitzinger (near Albertina). It's a notch better than the ubiquitously generic Würstelstands in the city. If you want a more local feel (and if you're really, really, really - really - adventurous), take the U1 U-Bahn to Reumannplatz and try Würstelstand Alles Walzer Alles Wurst.

Sachertorte: almost everyone would say Hotel Sacher. There's irony in this but Anthony Bourdain warned about eating in places where they flaunt "The Original" of something. Tony had Sachertorte there. It's not bad, but there are other places that you can also consider, such as Cafe Demel.

Sachertorte Hack: I'm not fond of apricot jam. Which is like saying I'm not fond of raw fish when talking about sushi. Try this instead: Truffle Torte (with whipped cream, of course), in Cafe Demel.

Wiener Schnitzel: Figlmüller or (Figlmüller Lugeck). But, unlike steak or sushi, the difference between a EUR 10 schnitzel and a EUR 20++ schnitzel isn't as noticeable - except perhaps, in terms of its serving size. Go try Amerling Beisl or Hopferl as well.

Highly-raved resto: Ulrich. Wild boar schnitzel and baked veal cheeks.

Coffee: phil and J. Hornig Kaffeebar (if you're working as well), CoffeePirates and, as legit as it can get: Wiener Rösthaus. Kleines Cafe is just for people watching.

Good and cheap in Innere Stadt: Tramezinni Bar
Apple strudel/Apfelstrudel: Cafe Korb, hands down.
Dessert: Ital Eis Salon de Pellegrin, Strudls

Where to Shop
Books & Comics: Bilderbox and Buchhandlung Walther König GmbH & Co KG (MuseumQuartier)
Clothing & Concept Stores: Qwstion, Arnold, Wall, Sole Box, Brother's Barbers (for men's supplies). Zapateria. Go get lost in the Schottenfeld/Neubau area. Steffl Department Store actually has an impressive collection of limtied edition New Balance sneakers.

Toys: Carl Hilpert KG near Stephansplatz. Their Playmobil is up to EUR 1,00 cheaper.
Camera stuff (pro-stuff, not for tourists): DIGITALSTORE Vienna in Stiftgasse. They have Zacuto and Blackmagic Design cameras as well. 

Or the Leica Shop at Westbahnstraße.

Where to Shoot
Mariahilf, Neubau, Schottenfeld, Innere Stadt, Nachsmarkt (in the morning!)

Venice

Venice is one of the most touristy places in the world - for a reason - a very valid reason at that. It's simply a place like no other. The attractions aren't that much of the churches, campos, art galleries and docks - it's the city itself. And the fun (and challenging) thing about it for a street photographer is this: just how do you photograph a place that's as touristy as this? Is it even possible to "de-touristify" Venice and have an authentic time there? If you're willing to wander around - if you're willing to go "left" when the sign points "right" to Rialto or San Marco - and if you're willing to go beyond, like Dorsoduro, Giudecca or even a bit further - then, I'm sure you will.

Mestre? It's one train station away from Sta. Lucia (Venice). EUR 1,25 per trip. Price of hotels and hostels are significantly lower.

Disclaimer: I've only been to Venice twice. I'm not that discerning when it comes to Italian food (except Pizza!). I don't like gelato. The list below is more of a "Where I Ate", instead of a "Where to Eat".

Where to Eat
Pizza: Antico Forno, Pizza 2000, Da Michele (Mestre).
Coffee: Torrefazione Cannaregio.
Gelato: Suso
Tiramisu: I Tre Mercanti
Pasta: Dal Moro's Fresh Pasta To Go
 

Wander here.
Dorsoduro
Collezione Peggy Guggenheim (modern art!)
DFS (T Fondaco dei Tedeschi) - great free view from the roof deck

Copenhagen

Ahhh... street photography. It's all about finding beauty - or anti-beauty - in the mundane. 

There are so many things beyond your control: the weather, lighting, who you're shooting and what that person is doing (unless you're doing a straight-on headshot) dealing with background clutter, shooting with minimal gear, etc. 

Two ways: you can either be super stealthy for candid photos or barge in, guns blazing, with your usual "Can I take your photo?" spiel -- small talk and backstory included.

Oh, wait, Copenhagen. Bikes, concept stores, Scandinavian fashion and design, 'em photogenic Danes, more bikes, hipster havens (or hipsterhavns rather. Not one, but two hipster neighborhoods!), and *that* Michelin-starred resto [closed as of my last visit in July 2017] . Skip the Little Mermaid and lose yourself in Nørrebro and Vesterbro.

Where to Eat
Danish/Scandinavian: Restaurant Relæ + Hallernes Smørrebrød + Grød, Manfreds
Market: Torvehallerne
Pizza: Neighbourhood Pizza
Burger: YOBurger
Copenhagen Street Food at Papirøen: Brasa (go for the chorizo!), La Fattoria's Porchetta Sandwich
Coffee: The Coffee Collective, Democratic Coffee
Steak: MASH

Where to Shop
Books: Cinnober (impressive Gestalten collection), ArnoldBusck.dk
Clothing & Concept Stores: Storm, Wood wood, Black, Legend, Street Machine, Han Kjøbenhavn, and all the cool stores along Jægersborggade (Sneakers & Coffee).
Music: 4sound (great synth collection), Accord (Audio CDs - yes, yes, at this day and age, still a resounding yes.)
Lego Store. Because you're in Denmark. Just for the heck of it.
Stuff for your house: Bolia.com, Illums Bolighus

Where to Shoot
Nørrebrograde
Indre By (Gothersgade, before the shops open!)
Nyhavn

Tokyo

Much has been said about Tokyo. I could go on and talk about geek culture, endless Lost in Translation and Babel references, where to buy an Ibanez Prestige guitar, but instead, I'll leave you with this anecdote. No pics. But it did happen:

One Tuesday Morning in Tsukiji Fish Market

Beside this rather popular and touristy sushi joint (think: 2-hour long lines, fanny packs and all, behold: faithful devotees from the Church of TripAdvisor), there's this spot preferred by locals: Edokkos, Tokyoites, and perhaps their foreigner friends who have been with them a year ago *ahem that’s me*.

More than the remarkable sushi that was highly recommended by a de facto local/Japanese food microblogger/friend (hey Miki!) it was this sign that caught my attention this time around: "No Picture Taking". "撮影禁止". I found this rather counter-culture - a big "up yours" to this social media age that we live in; establishments would actually want people to take photos of their dishes. Pics or it didn't happen. #instagramthatshit. #foodporn.

So after paying the cashier half a wad of Japanese Yen that was well worth it (cash only!), I asked why we weren't allowed to take photos.

"Because we don't want to be famous."

Why?

"Because if we become famous, we wouldn’t be able to give the same quality to our customers. You can't have both. We don’t want to lose our core customers." [paraphrased]

Let that sink in for a moment.

(…now back to our usual Rough Guide)

Coffee: Koffee Mameya, The Roastery by Nozy, Fulgen, Sarutahiko Coffee, Blue Bottle Coffee
Sushi: ask me.
Rather cheap but pretty good Japanese Steak: Ikinari
Sleep: 9hours. From backpackers all the way up to start-up CEOs.
Camera Gear: Map Camera, Lucky Camera
Guitars: Ochanomizu (Guitar Street)
Sneakers: Omotesando nr. Harajuku
Don’t forget: BEAMS. And Tokyu Hands.

Iceland

Rent your own car, explore southern Iceland, spend the night at Vik, then go to Solheimajokull the following day. And of course, the Sólheimasandur Plane Crash Site is one that’s not to miss. Just don’t loose your car keys at Black Sand Beach hours before your flight.

True story bro. Read on...

Reynisdrangar, Iceland 

So there I was, ready to go home, after taking this photo of Sam & Brooke (🇺🇸✈️🇮🇸). You know that happy, fulfilled feeling you have after a long, productive trip? Well all of that just got thrown out of the window as I tried to open my car's door. "Hey!?! These are my AirBnB keys... Wait..." I put down my cameras so I could check my other pockets. None. My car keys weren't there. In what was clearly a state of denial, I checked the same pockets again. "Where are my keys?!?" Oh Lord. I did a rough search, first, at the parking lot, then making my way first to the left side of the beach, then to the right side. None. I made my way back to the car to do a more thorough search this time, but still to no avail. "F--k." Not a few F-bombs were uttered during those moments.

Allow me to enumerate the facts related to my predicament:

1. I lost my keys in a place called "Black Sand Beach". Well it wasn't entirely sand. Half of them were small, round black pebbles wherein one careless person could easily lose a small, round black keychain that was roughly the same size as the pebbles. Think "needle in a haystack", but this time, the needle was golden yellow.

2. It was my last day in Iceland and I just had a few hours left before my flight. Black Sand Beach was 2.5 hours from Reykjavik, a total of three from the airport. It was already 9:30PM, and I was scheduled to return the car by 3:00AM. How long would it take me to find the keys (Will I actually find them in the first place?) And how long will it take the Rent-A-Car company to bring a duplicate key? Is that even an option given the time that I have?

3. The keys could have been anywhere. I traversed a good 400 meters of the beach, taking photos from time to time... argh. God knows where I dropped it. Leaving them inside the car would have been a consolation, but no, they weren't inside. 

4. It was a rather desolate beach. It wasn't your typical beach beside a small town. The lone restaurant was already closed, and people were starting to leave as it was already getting dark. Having a locksmith around was quite a longshot.

On with the story. So I decided to do another search, but I had to narrow it down further. Well logically, since I spent more time on the right side of the beach, I did a more thorough, foot-by-foot, inch-by-inch search there. My search area was roughly 300 square meters of black sand and car keychain-like black pebbles. I was in a state of borderline panic and "I got this all figured out". After 10 minutes of searching... none. 15... none. I was already praying (very) audibly. There was no one else there to hear me anyway. Do you know the verse in Hebrews that tells us to "approach the throne of Grace with boldness"? Man, did I really knock on Heaven's doors, barging audaciously into the Holy of Holies. "Father, I know you're good. You care about even the smallest details of our lives. Please lead me to the key because you know where it is. I need a miracle today, Father. You know how much I want to go home." Something like that, but a little bit more desperate. Lol.

I did one more thorough search of the beach's right side. I still wasn't able to find my keys. I then Googled the number of Reykjavik Rent-a-Car (Iceland's Edge is even faster than Manila's 3G!!!) The search results gave me the number, but the store hours already indicated "Closed". Five rings or so, then, surprisingly, someone answered. I told him about my predicament, and, although he was talking to me in a professional-methodological-step-by-step manner, he couldn't hide it in his voice how messed up my situation was. Getting duplicate keys all the way to the Black Sand Beach, apparently, was out of the question. It would have taken several hours to go through the entire process.

I was given the following options.

1. Leave the car and start making my way back to Reykjavik. That would entail walking to the main road and taking my chances hitchhiking. There was no public transportation. You either rented your car or you were part of a group tour.

2. This one, I really didn't consider. Spend the night in the area, wait for the duplicate keys the following day, but utterly miss my flight. No way. I wanted to be home by Mother's Day.

3. Call their Emergency Services. They might probably give me a ride back to the capital, or at least, to nearby Vik. My things were inside the car, so I was even considering asking to police to just break the windows so I can get my bag, I'll just pay the rent-a-car whatever the damages were. I just couldn't risk flying out with my laptop and lenses left just there.

So there, we were discussing my options over the phone, with option 3 being the most feasible one. Me being actually able to find my keys was a far-fetched idea, but I told the guy I haven't given up hope yet. I told him I'll do one more round of searching before I call the police.

It was already 10PM, sunset was in 20 minutes and the tide was already rising. You know your tendency to wander around and walk aimlessly as you're talking intently with someone on the phone? Well, that happened. I found myself already waaay outside my search area - I was already on the left side of the beach. Not only did I find myself off track, I also found something else: my keys!!!!!!!! 

Guj: "Oh! Oh thank God!"
Rent-a-Car guy: What!?!"
Guj: "My keys! I found my keys!"
Rent-a-Car guy: "Oh wow! Thank God". 

I could hear the sincerity and relief in his voice.

The keys were there, right there, directly in front of me. It wasn't like, "Oh, there they are" a few meters away. 

Wait wait wait... you mean God answered your prayer even after all those F-bombs? 

Yes. 

The good Lord answers prayers based on His goodness alone, not ours. If for a minute, you're thinking that God answers prayers because you're "good enough" or because God owes you something because you did this for him, then, my dear friend, you're mistaken. The only thing that we can hold on to is Christ's finished work on the cross. That's both the only thing and everything at the same time. (If you talked to me a few year back, I would have given a different answer. That's why I was "churchy" and all.) Another thing that I've learned. My self-effort would have eventually led me to nowhere. The search area that I chose was the right side of the beach. Where did I find the keys? On the left side. The area where I was not searching in. I "found" the keys as I was "aimlessly wandering" while talking on the phone. I was actually passively looking for the keys as I was talking. Then there, right in front of me, way way out of my search area, as if the Lord led me to them. He *did* lead me to them. I don't believe in luck or coincidence. This is Unmerited Favor. This is superabounding Grace.

New York City

Shame on me for not having a write-up for New York City. I mean - c’mon man - of all the cities? Or it might be because of my love-hate relationship with it.

Well, I’ll keep it short:

redsheep New York City = Saturdays NYC at Crosby St, Ace Hotel (and Stumptown Coffee), “tito-tier” shopping at Bergdorf Goodman and Tiffany & Co 5th Ave Flagship, hip shopping at NoLita and SoHo, business-justifiable gear shopping at B&H, geeking out at Forbidden Planet and visiting the Sanctum Sanctorum at 177 “A” Bleecker Street, MALIN+GOETZ, REI Co-op, Shake Shack with squirrels at Madison Square Park, good ol’ Ray’s and Prince St. Pizza, Russ & Daughters, and Smith & Wollensky for that Miranda Priestly fix or Peter Luger for that annual splurge meal. What else? Crif Dogs? Bao Haus? A Simon and Garfunkel + Beastie Boys + Biggie + The Strokes playlist?

That’s it, I guess.

Oh wait. Now I DO have a write-up.

a Destination Wedding in Club Paradise Palawan

Halfway through the beach wedding ceremony at sunset, followed by the kiss, recessional, and bride & groom portraits during blue hour - all these key events happening - from sundown 'til utter darkness. It wasn't the original plan, but looking back, I wouldn't have it any other way. C'mon, sparklers against a pastel blue sky - how could you not? *stoked smiley*

Singapore Wedding Videographer

Here's a feel-good wedding that we shot alongside Bloc Memoire: a very intimate solemnization in Hiza & Raquel's pad a stone's throw away from Orchard Road, followed by a wholesomely crazy dinner party at The White Rabbit. That's 300++ visible instances of smiles. Give or take a few. Oh, and yes, those caricature wedding favors were nothing short of amazing.

a Destination Wedding in Apulit Island El Nido Resorts Palawan Philippines

This - Seph & Chris’ destination wedding - would be my testament on how far I could go in shooting a wedding photojournalistically. Some couples would get us because of the travel factor in our photos: those tiny people-big big sky shots or those ethereal Milky Way and night sky shots; some, for the filmic quality, but Seph and Chris, they were drawn to the photojournalistic and reportage aspect. This set might be a bit too street photography-style, gritty and anti-glam for your usual Wedding Pinterest Board - body ink, alcohol, dark shadows and all. I even left out photos of the gown, shoes, bridal bouquet and the other usual wedding details for good measure. All these, because one - to prove a point, that you can be both photojournalistic and picturesque at the same time, and two - because I frickin’ love to shoot this way.

Los Angeles: PreWedding Photos

Oh will you look at that.

Two city engagement shoot scenarios at polar ends of my bucket list: a sidewalk with a chock-fuller than usual flow of pedestrians (apparently all of them just came out of The Theater at Ace Hotel where an afternoon matinee just concluded), and, just one block away, a totally empty street in Downtown Los Angeles. Three streets actually: W 9th, S Spring and S Main Street. But no POTUS this time - just a routine road re-blocking project from the local department of public works and the city government of Los Angeles.*

So those two instances above, plus the unfairly beautiful Southern California sunlight, plus Dom & Reg, delightfully animated an all, ever-comfortable with each other, totally nullifying the "we're not comfortable in front of the camera" disclaimer that they said earlier.

Ah. Favor. Another one of those "strength in weakness" moments. I was limping like Keyser Söze (don't ask why). And touchdown in LAX was less than 24 hours ago. Totally needed all the Help that I can get.

New York City: PreWedding Photos

Hello again, New York. It's been two years.

9:40AM ET DUMBO
Resisted the urge not to fall into that Insta-trap. (Crazy. 6:20AM and Washington St. corner Water St. was already swarming with people!)

10:53AM ET Brooklyn Heights Promenade
Was able to tick-off an item in my bucket list of shots. It's quite specific actually: "Shoot a couple in Brooklyn Heights Promenade using a telephoto lens." Because years ago, I made a rookie mistake of using a wide angle lens. It wasn't as ooomph-y as I wanted it to be.

12:20PM ET SoHo
Spring Street, Crosby Street and Broadway in particular. Saturdays NYC was closed for renovation so we had to improvise: shop window reflections, lamp post shadows and shoulder-level autumn foliage to the rescue. And yes, a bokeh-ed Broadway for that unmistakable Big Apple vibe.


2:35PM NoMadStumptown Coffee at Ace Hotel. Matcha for Ingrid, latte for Manuel, and one cortado for me.

How could we not use Ace Hotel's retro-yet-still-functional old school photo booth!

Next: walk a few blocks down to...

3:17PM ET Madison Square Park
Did you see my IG story? Guess I'll be having Shake Shack after all. *smiley* [ Thank you Manuel & Ingrid! ]


4:22PM ET Central ParkDon't let the time stamp fool you. Behold: The November sunset was just a few moments away. We had to make the most out of the light that we have. Although admittedly, I'm a blue hour person. *wink*


6:32PM ET Times SquareLast stop. Check out Photo #20. See the billboard "Playing with Fire" where John Leguizamo and Keegan-Michael Key are dressed as firemen? Such a waste of white, empty space above the movie title.


2-week US tour, done.

Don & FT's Singapore wedding, right in the middle of Downtown Core: effortlessly chill, as hip as its Style Council soundtrack, artsy AF, with tons of feel good fun. And with that, a fun fact: Art Deco imagery in the wedding details and the reception setup were made (with love) by the groom himself! Gestalten coffee table book-worthy. And indeed, it was featured in Gestalten’s “You’re Invited”. Cool ‘eh.

Intimate Beach Wedding: El Nido

Intimate beach wedding in El Nido. Piotr & Karolina’s intimate beach wedding photos & video x destination wedding photographer & cinematographer @redsheepphotocinema. Shot & filmed on location: Stunning Republic, Corong Corong, El Nido, Palawan, Philippines. Sony A7RII. Leica M. VSCO. Color remastered, June 2018.

This is what I really like about El Nido: throw awfully bad weather at it and it still looks ethereally beautiful. This, and the vibe, the sandbars and sunset bars, a horizon that's never boring, and the pizza, definitely the pizza. El Nido = LOVE.

Update: It’s been more than a year and more than a dozen shoots after and I haven’t seen El Nido as stormy as this, ominous dark clouds and all. If you’re here because you Googled “el nido wedding”, I’m sorry to disappoint you, but this portfolio entry is not the typical bright and sunny tropical beach wedding that you’re expecting. It has “stormy” written all over the fineprint. Still breathtaking nevertheless.

a Destination Wedding in Batanes Philippines

Go*. Just go**. If Batanes is in your destination wedding short list or travel bucket list, don't think twice. It's been weeks already, but I'm still enthralled by the sheer beauty of this place. And to think that it's my third time shoot in Batanes already! I think it might take three more before I reach the "been there - done that" phase. 

And this. The styling. I've seen postcard-worthy locations ruined by event styling that's tastleless and a five-letter "B" word in the vernacular. Definitely, not this one. Go get these guys to do your Batanes wedding. Their sense of aesthetics - *the audience goes oooh* - that's the stuff Pinterest boards are made of.

//

* ** During the summer months, of course. I've seen Batanes' bad side. It's sad, gloomy, ominous, dank, dark, foreboding, etc... you can say goodbye to those Milky Way shots at night.

Raffles Hotel Singapore Wedding

Singapore Wedding | 07.2013
Adam Stamenkovic x Emily Loke’s garden wedding cum Serbian Archery Ceremony, filmed on location: Raffles Hotel, Singapore.

The Serbian archery ceremony: the Ting Hun, Chinese tea ceremony and Pamamanhikan on steroids. You'll need a quiver of thirteen arrows, a bow - anything between Legolas' and Hawkeye's will do - an apple, a 1:1 list of zany consequences for every missed shot, lots of love and determination. (In the most dogmatic form of this Serbian tradition, a miss means the wedding is off.)

Adam, a NY wedding photographer based in Singapore - gifted with a keen eyesight, was able to hit the apple in just a few tries. One day after, Adam his bride and Emily, (founder of Paper Tiger Press, Singapore's first letterpress studio) tied the knot at the iconic Raffles Hotel.

El Nido Resorts Elopement

It's by far the most beautiful sunset that I've ever seen:

The locals and the El Nido Resorts staff agree. If these guys who get to experience this daily say that it the most beautiful sunset, then it IS the most beautiful sunset!

And to think that we almost gave up on our sunset cruise: the late afternoon sky, as seen from Big Lagoon Beach, was dark, gloomy and covered with a thick layer of clouds. This, the oh so bland sky, was a stark contrast to what was Bernhard & Joanna's wedding cake: Hotel Sacher Vienna’s Sachertorte!!! A chocolate sponge covered with chocolate icing, and filled with a layer - or two - of apricot jam. (Ohh that was really really really good!!! They said it’s best served with whipped cream).

Now where was I... O yes, the sunset! Going back, we trusted our instincts and still went for the sunset cruise. *voila* This amazing view surprised us! It was grace that - quite literally - was showered on us from above. We are so much grateful for this surreal moment that we all experienced. And thank You also for that striated layer of clouds that filled the sky - like a fluffy carpet unrolled for us by the good Lord himself! [I’m still in awe whenever I see the portrait].

This is what I love about beach weddings - El Nido weddings in particular: the weather is very unpredictable, but it can and it will surprise you, literally adding colors and hues to the story that is your big day! 

'till next time!

El Nido Destination Wedding

El Nido Destination Wedding | 12.2012
Raphael Bick x Daniela Zheng’s El Nido destination wedding Same Day Edit video, filmed on location: Miniloc, El Nido Resorts, El Nido, Palawan, Philippines.

Raphael and Daniela are seasoned globetrotters. Among all the places that they have been to, they chose our very own El Nido. (Raphael has been to Antarctica! ...and I'm so tempted to use the word "cool". ) Raphael and Daniela's friends are from all over the world (READ: INSEAD - The Business School for the World) and they wanted a place with sheer beauty and charisma that can draw even the busiest investment banker or consultant into a week-long tropical frenzy. In a nutshell, that's 55 guests from 20 different countries. 2 islands, 1 awesome wedding.

The reprise starts at 03:26. Enjoy!
