Working with this couple was an absolute blast! Totally made my trip to the Bay Area a very fulfilling experience.
Mike’s a huge toy collector and that he actually had one of his Star Wars action figures help him propose to Angeli, was just too cute not to mention.
Angeli considers Mike as a “gift”, a birthday gift. They met at a dinner with friends nine years ago celebrating her birthday and the rest is history.
(see the couple’s full story here)
We would like to thank all the vendors who made Angeli and Mike’s special day a very memorable one. The super creative photography team of Emma and Alfred Salom ( yes! it’s Emma first! jk..mr.ASP ), event coordinator Joanna Pattugalan, DJ Eugene Macala, make-up artist Jira and crew of Wowpretty Jira, and the guys who helped me shoot the day, Bay Area event filmmakers Ryan Sarmiento and Nelson Nunez.
SPECIAL THANKS to the bride and groom’s family and friends for the warmest accommodation. You made us all feel like we’re family!!!
