JR and Rachelle will definitely be in the list if ever I will have a favorites list of all my metrophoto couples. They were super nice to us, they made sure that there was not a minute that we're not taken cared of, they even prepared very lovely thank you stuff for us. But most of all, they trust and understand us almost unconditionally I think. hahaha. It's just a wonderful feeling for us to be treated in such ways that you wish you can do it all over again =) hahaha... seriously =) 

One of the things I wasn't looking forward to on their wedding day was the evening ceremony at Fernwood Gardens. This will mean only one thing - evening portrait session inside the venue (unless of course Christine allows me to drive the couple away to shoot somewhere else). So I thought JR and Rachelle deserved more than that. So I figured it would be really awesome if they will agree to meet before the ceremony, and have a "first look" instead, and shoot inside the Fully Book store just outside the hotel where they are going to have their preps. =) Needless to say, they said yes (not as easily as they ready wanted the surprise during the ceremony) and we had a terrific time shooting including capturing JR's look as he saw Rachelle in her Cecilio Abad wedding gown looking extremely beautiful =) 

So without further ado, here are photos from JR and Rachelle's wedding =) Loved it so much that I used the photo above in my recent ad ;) Enjoy

  you absolutely can't go wrong when there is a gorilla in your wedding reception =)
