Birth. School. Crush. Like. Love. Purpose. Marriage.
Owen and Nikka, ladies and gentlemen: from childhood crush and 15 years of togetherness, travel blogging, up until now with their very own wedding photography brand - Baguio City's best at that. So imagine the pressure that I felt when I first saw Nikka's email signature when she inquired. And the pressure was just there, ever persistent, lingering for months until I met them for the first time, when Owen told me, [translated from the vernacular], "Just be yourself and shoot like you always do."
Owen and Nikka, I've said this plenty of times already, but thank you (again!) for trusting me. You guys are seriously one of the nicest and most appreciative couples that I've ever worked with, and, more than that, more than the honor of shooting a fellow wedding photographer's wedding, it's really your warmth and friendship that we'll treasure a day and a half short of forever. (Love you guys too!)
