Bridal Work: Kaycee

The day finally came where Mike and Kaycee finally tied the knot. Everything was beautiful, from the flowers, the details on the dress, and of course, our bride, Kaycee


During our prenup session, I discovered that Kaycee loves makeup too, she's got awesome gear that she specifically wanted to use. On her wedding, she got gear for the day. She had her foundation ready (MAC Studiofix, the holy grail of all foundations), her eyeshadow palette (Urban Decay Naked 2), and she had two choices of pink lipsticks - MAC Viva Glam Nicki Minaj and NARS Schiap. Since I wanted a bit of freshness, we chose the Nicki Minaj lipstick for her wedding lip, as I previously reviewed it before, it brightens up the face instantly for a fresh, youthful glow without looking too overpowering. we kept the rest of her makeup neutral - browns for the eyes and just a kiss of pink on the cheeks.

For her hair, Wacks decided to go with a loose and romantic updo, to fight humidity since it was raining so hair does not mushroom up or fall limp and flat. 

Artistic minds really do go together well. Kaycee and Mike designed and printed their wedding invitations themselves. Mike's a graphic designer. I love the vintage artsy effect of the invites. Their monograms were also reproduced into stickers on our powerpacks, which were snack packs given to suppliers so they are constantly energized. Thanks guys!

For those getting married, they can design and print your invitations too! (Plug plug!)


Santuario de San Antonio provided an excellent backdrop for their photos. It was a rainy wedding day for both of them, but thankfully, there were no rains by the time the post-ceremony photos came.

Blogged! Thank You Vatel Manila!



When I got home, I did the routine account checks and one of them was logging in Facebook. While at it, I saw our client Jeff tag me in a link and what a pleasant surprise, our prenup shoot from Subic was blogged in Vatel Manila! By the way, Jeff and his lovely Eds recently got married last month so a big congratulations to them!


Vatel Manila is a wedding florist and you could click on their website to see all their fabulous floral arrangements that you could use on your wedding day or special event, it's up to you. They even do amazing black calla lilies! Yes! black flowers! Not as scary as you think, mind you. They actually look elegant and fabulous. I think Vatel was Eds's and Jeff's florist for their wedding.

I like what they said that it was an exciting shoot at more far-flung places! :) It was really exciting! Imagine the places where we were able to shoot there - so many textures and colors. The picture above was near lighthouse hotel. I am so thinking
Pearl Harbor here.
more shots! more shots! Eds looks so pretty in the third shot! This was before the strong Subic Bay sea wind blowed her curls away so I had to straighten it by the time the old-school fair layout came.
Yay to the credits (if you click on the picture).

Big hugs to my lovie teammates Christine, Aisa, and Mich, our happy (now) newlyweds, and of course, Vatel Manila for featuring us. I hope I get to work with all of you soon again and again and again!
