Our Photographer & Videographer

Photo/Video coverage is one of our top priorities in our wedding budget, and we have been scouting for our wedding photo/video supplier for months now.  Bear have been eyeing to get Redfox Photography, however when we saw their package during the wedding expo last September 2010, we decided not to get them anymore since their package was too pricey already. :(


We started looking around for other suppliers within the expo and when we came to pass by the Luminosi Studios' booth and saw their wedding package & albums, they instantly became one of our favorites.

After going through the other suppliers' samples and packages, we went back to Luminosi's booth to inquire.  We were able to speak with John Taca (he's one of the primary photographers and co-owner of the studio).  He was very honest with us when we asked how long they have been in the wedding industry -- he said that they just started venturing into wedding photography, since they have previously focused on advertising (i.e. magazines, print ads, etc.) We also saw their sample AVP, and to be honest, it really does need some more innovation.

Since our wedding will still be next year, we thought that they will still have enough time to improve. :) (fingers crossed!) Yes, booking them may be a VERY BIG risk for us.  But as my Finance teacher says: high risk = high return.  I do hope this holds true for photo/video suppliers as well. :)

Btw, here's the package that we got from them based on Angel's quotation (we paid a little extra for additional photographer & videographer & very minimal fee for OOT):
  • 2 Lead Photographers + 1 Master Photographer (unlimited photos)
  • 2 Videographers with editing
  • 1 Book USA Couple's Album (40 pages, 10x10)
  • 2 Book USA Parent's Album (40 pages, 5x7)
  • 1 Book USA Guestbook (10 pages, 10x10)
  • 1 16x20 Blow-up Photo with Frame
  • Prenup Pictorial (w/in Metro Manila)
  • 1 Leather CD-case album
  • On-site AVP Presentation (Flashback, Prenup, Preps and Wedding highlights)
  • LCD projector and screen
