Paddy & Lori
Paddy and Lori are good friends with a couple whose wedding we shot last April. It’s a funny story how Jamie and Bogs recommended our services to them but Paddy and Lori somehow wandered to another studio’s office with a similar name. It took a while before they figured out the mix up and fortunately, was able to book us for their December wedding. It would have been a shame not to be able to shoot these two 😉
Anyway, we’ve been thinking of changing our trade name to “Mimi and Karl” and dropping the Fotogra Weddings altogether. What do you guys think?

“mimi and karl” has a better recall! it readily has its impact (uhmm.. parang belo!). and we always refer to your names when we recommend you to friends or when we simply brag you to others. so, change it na?Ãœ
can’t wait to see you again! have yet to schedule a prenup! naku, baka wala na kaming slot sa napakabusy nyong sched. hmmmm… will contact you within the week. ;p

mas okay ata if you change it to “mimi & karl” na. when my girl friends and i exchange notes /ideas about wedding suppliers, mimi & karl talaga ang sinasabi namin. some of my friends don’t even know na fotogra pala name ng company nyo. hehehe. 🙂

weird, nung isang araw lang naisip ko na sabihin sa inyo yung pangalan ninyo. pramis. people kept referring kasi sa inyo as “m&k”
pero para kunwari merong business sense ang change in name, alam niyo ba na sa advertising (sabi sa marketing 101 namin) the letter with the most recall, kapag nag-iisip ka pa lang ng name, ay ang letter “k”? maganda daw pag mag “K” ang brand name…dont know though if it’s true (think “Korina”, “Kris”, “Krispy Kreme”)

Halu Mimi & Karl! Fantastic last shot! Uuuy Mims, eto ba yung sa rooftop?
I agree, drop the Fotogra part. Your names are much more distinctive 🙂 I know of a “Photogra” company that does those Empire State Bldg souvenir photos (with the chiz background), hehe.

Hey ms. mimi and sir karl 🙂 I agree with the whole lot. whenever our friends ask who we got for photo for our wedding, I automatically say “Mimi and Karl”! we rarely refer to you as fotogra. great shot of the UP pep. this time, kami naman ni gerard pinaiyak nyo hahaha 😀
all the best!
p.s. have you figured out a way to “raise” the clique booth for the vertically-blessed groom and his equally blessed friends?

I vote for Mimi & Karl! 🙂 Then just use fotogra.ph for other photographic endeavors, or maybe use it for a pinoy web2.0 photography community, ala flickr? 😉 Besides, fotogra.ph was a play on photogra.ph na hindi nakuha ni Karl, hehehe.
Nice shooting, as usual. 🙂

Mimi and Karl! Sayang talaga that my sister didn’t discover you guys first before she booked her wedding photographer last year. Inis kami sa photographer niya, kasi sobrang sandali lang siya nagpakita to take some shots while we were at home pa, the rest his assistants did the work na, so nothing great ang photos sa church and reception. (hindi kasi nagpa-recommend sa akin eh). Irita!
Anyways, Lori and Paddy are good friends of mine. I will look for photos of them together during our choir days, way before their “ligawan” stage! Hahaha! Who would’ve thought that these two would actually end up together! Send ko sa iyo, baka may maisip ka na namang gimmick. Hahaha! I loved the J&B shot of Jamie and Bogs. Jamie and Lori are my sister’s batchmate kaya magkaka-kilala kami. I know you guys also did my friends’ wedding, CJ and VJ!
I’m excited na sa March 1, since you will be doing my cousin Rob’s wedding (Rob & Hannah). See you!

btw, i looked at our pictures on your blog again! thank you for the nth time! brings back such beautiful memories! 🙂
