Mark and Isabella
ST. BENEDICT CHURCH | ANTONIO'S TAGAYTAY | SEDA HOTEL, NUVALI
Some couples are natural in front of the camera, effortlessly posing with ease. Mark and Isabella, however, are not the type who are used to taking photos. Their comfort zone is laughter, shared glances, and the spontaneous moments that make their love so genuine. As a wedding photographer, I love the challenge of finding beauty in the unposed, the raw, and the real—and Mark and Isabella gave me exactly that.
The day began early at Seda Hotel Nuvali. There was a lightheartedness in the air, a mix of excitement and nerves, but above all, joy.
Isabella, radiant even in her simplest moments, had a quiet grace that shone through. She laughed at her nervousness, held tightly onto her morning drink, and exchanged meaningful looks with her closest friends.
While some couples crave the grandeur of a dramatic pre-ceremony shoot, Mark and Isabella simply wanted to enjoy the moment.
The beauty of St. Benedict Church is its serenity—a perfect place for two souls to promise forever. Capturing the small but powerful emotions—the trembling hands, the misty eyes, the relieved smiles as they finally said “I do”—was what made this moment so memorable.
Antonio’s Tagaytay provided the perfect backdrop for an intimate and elegant reception. As the fog rolled over the lush greenery, the atmosphere felt cozy, warm, and filled with love. The speeches were heartfelt, each one revealing more about Mark and Isabella’s journey together. Their love story was not about grand gestures but about quiet, unwavering support, about finding joy in the everyday.
Mark and Isabela might not have been used to being in front of the camera, but they were the definition of photogenic—not because of practiced poses, but because of their authenticity. Their laughter during the couple’s shoot, the way they held hands without thinking, the way they leaned into each other—it was all unscripted, and that made it even more beautiful.

Weddings are more than just beautiful details; they are about the people, the emotions, and the unguarded moments in between. Mark and Isabela’s wedding was a reminder that love doesn’t need to perform—it just needs to be felt. And that’s what we captured: a love that was real, raw, and full of life.
As a wedding photographer, my goal has always been to document, not dictate. To let the couple be themselves, and in turn, allow their love to shine in its most natural form. Mark and Isabela’s wedding was a testament to that philosophy—proof that the most beautiful moments are the ones you don’t plan, the ones that simply happen.
To Mark and Isabela, thank you for letting me tell your story. May your days be filled with as much laughter, love, and authenticity as your wedding day.
