Veluz RTW 2014 Collection

One of the things I look forward to during weddings is working with supplier friends. Work? What work? Exactly! We completely forget that we are working because we are having fun. Such is the case when we did this outdoor shoot for our friend Veluz’ RTW 2014 collection together with Ernest Pascual of Bespoke Manila, Madge Lejano and the Makeup Studio Team, Kaye Cunanan, Jo Claravall, Teddy Manuel, Jason Magbanua, Penk Ching and Cuenca Jewelry. I swear, we had to constantly keep ourselves in check, otherwise the shoot would have taken days to finish. 😉
