It’s an honor, not to mention a challenge, to shoot a fellow wedding photographer’s wedding. Despite being Hong Kong locals, Jon and Merryl chose Boracay as the picture perfect backdrop for their beautiful wedding, riddled with inspiring details and bathed with tons of God-given golden sunlight.

Easily one of my most memorable shoots in my favourite island in the world, perhaps in a way like you’ve never seen before.

Wedding Venue: Shangri-la Boracay Resort and Spa | Wedding Coordination: Amanda Tirol of Boracay Weddings | Bridal bouquet and entourage flowers: Spruce Floral Designs | Ribbons: Frou Frou Chic | Calligraphy: The Fozzy Book | Letterpressed Invitations: Printsonalities | Bride’s shoes: Badgley Mishka | Groom’s suit: Furama | Makeup: Pong Niu | Hair: Roger Calalas | Special thanks to Janna Mendoza Simpao and Bride and Breakfast
