It was detox time from Feb 23rd to the 27th as me and the whole crew and my entire immediate family as well as Dinolara’s whole gang took a trip to Boracay Island. It was as beautiful as I remembered it. Camera in tow, videographer turns into photographer…

Perhaps my favorite picture of all – reckless abandon on the sand (ahhh to be young again)

One of the highlights of the trip was when Orange County wedding videographer Julie Hill (Elysium Productions) dropped by to chat, observe, shoot and help out. Her main trip was actually in Negros Occidental where she documented doctors on a medical mission. It was the most fun swapping stories about the industry and comparing the differences in wedding cultures. Oh, they charge $5000 ++ a wedding (put jaw back up here).

One word I picked up from Julie is GINORMOUS! (As in gigantic + enormous)
As in this sand castle…

as in our appetites – a 30 person long table at Seawind‘s seafood grill buffet…

Can you spell vacation hangover?
