A post from one of our events in 2008. Slowly catching up :-)
Jessie Marguerite...another baby name which we assume came from the names of her parents - Jessie and Marjorie Lynn. They fondly call her Bonita, which is Spanish for pretty. You look at this little girl and you’ll say, “Oo nga naman.”
Jessie [the dad – not Bonita :-)] was the one who called and booked us for this event. It’s very rare that we get to discuss event details with fathers of the celebrants (who almost always just ask for the rate and then leave it to the moms for details. hahaha) so this was a welcome change.
A family shot taken at the reception.
This was a very simple event - no program and not a lot of details to shoot, with most of the shots ending up paparazzi style with Bonita in the spotlight. It also helped a lot that she was a kid with a thousand expressions, which had us capturing shots like these:
"Huh? I won? as in? really?"
"Direk! Panalo tayo! Atin ‘to!"
"I would like to thank the following...my mother...my father... uhmm, bale, ilan na yun?"
"Totoo kayang pera itong prize ko?"
A few close friends and family members made this baptism + 1st birthday an intimate one.
