The Gift
Last December 20, 2007, my wife had her ultrasound and found out that we'll be having a BABY BOY!!!!
This is the best Christmas and New Year's gift I have ever received.....after 3 lovely daughters, we have been blessed with an UNICO HIJO...the only grandson on the side of my in-laws [they have 9 grand daughters, mind you]....and the only one to carry the Pilapil name on the side of my Mom....
He already has a name----that's how excited the girls and I became---it's Patrick David Silang Pilapil! Yahooooo!!
What more can I ask?

A December Wedding
Five days before Christmas, I still had a chance to shoot a wedding held at Lipa, Batangas [a southern province in Luzon, Philippines] which was a two hour drive from the Metropolis...
The preparation and reception was held in a farm within the city surrounded with trees and a great deal of sheep, doves, goats, etc. We were there at 5:30am and it was pretty cold and just in time to get some good sunrise shots. The bride travelled all the way from London to get married in a special time of the year!
The wedding took place in a huge cathedral and I marvelled at the architecture of the church. I had a great time shooting for almost 9 hours and it was worth it! I love shooting morning weddings due to the available light and the cool air specially in a place and season as this.
Here are some of images from the event....
