I was invited to attend to the most awaited wedding of the decade last December 2, 2006 when my best friends (Marvin and Deth) finally decided to take their bows in front of an audience who have waited for more than two decades. Their new found life together is a great celebration especially to the community who have witnessed how the engagement began. Unexpectedly, this is now a reality that the couple will be sharing the rest of their life under one roof they've neglected to seriously consider 20 years ago. And now, the joy and happiness the couple is experiencing in their hearts is also the same sentiment for all the people around who have watched them since the day they've met. How true is the old Pilipo sayings goes... "Pagkahaba-haba man ng Prusisyon, sa Simbahan din ang Tuloy (No matter how long the procession is, It will end up in Church"... yes, it is.

I adore this shot. Not a technically fabulous photo but unmistakenly FAMILY and FUN and full of LOVE. It seems to tell a story. It's REAL and it makes me smile every time I look at it. It's for these reasons that I am back to bump you up to 9 and I'm adding this shot to my favorites.
