Sam and Kai part 1 of 2 | engagement shoot | Camiguin
Earlier in my blog I told you that I had a wedding coverage in Camiguin that went ballistic, which I meant is the weather. It was raining so hard during the wedding day, most of all my ideas that I have thought of before we went to Camiguin, which I plan to do was not done. Well, in that case, that is what also happened during this engagement shoot.
The night after the wedding day I covered, I texted my client that the weather in Camiguin is gloomy and rain is very frequent, as what one of the residents there told me. But my client assured me, as she had checked on Pag-asa’s forecast, those days after, it will be sunny. True enough, when Sunday came, it was all sunny. It was a good sign. Our shoot was scheduled for Wednesday that same week and we were really planning to get a sunrise shoot. So to carry out our idea, we travelled a day before so as to be prepared for next day’s shoot. It was all sunny when we travelled going to Camiguin. I was getting excited to do the shoot the next day because it was also one of my dreams to shoot a couple in a sunrise scene in White Island, Camiguin. We set-up alarms that would wake us by 5am so that we would be in white island before sunrise. It was around 4am when we were woken up by heavy rain. Our hopes of getting that sunrise shot also poured along with the rain.
But the rain doesn’t matter actually. The point is, we were there, I’m fired up to taking pictures, my couple is also fired up for the shoot whatever happens. So we decided to still go on with our plan, and luckily we managed to have a nice photoshoot there with occasional drizzles. Their laughter was the key to success. We laughed our hearts content the whole time. And just as my previous post, even the weather can’t stop the happiness of two couples who are in love.
Smiles and laughter + Bon Aserios = 2 | Rainy weather = 0

‘Twas in another lifetime, one of toil and blood
When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud
I came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form.
“Come in,” she said,
“I’ll give you shelter from the storm.”

And if I pass this way again, you can rest assured
I’ll always do my best for her, on that I give my word
In a world of steel-eyed death, and men who are fighting to be warm.
“Come in,” she said,
“I’ll give you shelter from the storm.”

Not a word was spoke between us, there was little risk involved
Everything up to that point had been left unresolved.
Try imagining a place where it’s always safe and warm.
“Come in,” she said,
“I’ll give you shelter from the storm.”

I was burned out from exhaustion, buried in the hail,
Poisoned in the bushes an’ blown out on the trail,
Hunted like a crocodile, ravaged in the corn.
“Come in,” she said,
“I’ll give you shelter from the storm.”

Suddenly I turned around and she was standin’ there
With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair.
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns.
“Come in,” she said,
“I’ll give you shelter from the storm.”

-
Now there’s a wall between us, somethin’ there’s been lost
I took too much for granted, got my signals crossed.
Just to think that it all began on a long-forgotten morn.
“Come in,” she said,
“I’ll give you shelter from the storm.”

I’ve heard newborn babies wailin’ like a mournin’ dove
And old men with broken teeth stranded without love.
Do I understand your question, man, is it hopeless and forlorn?
“Come in,” she said,
“I’ll give you shelter from the storm.”

In a little hilltop village, they gambled for my clothes
I bargained for salvation an’ they gave me a lethal dose.
I offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn.
“Come in,” she said,
“I’ll give you shelter from the storm.”

Well, I’m livin’ in a foreign country but I’m bound to cross the line
Beauty walks a razor’s edge, someday I’ll make it mine.
If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born.
“Come in,” she said,
“I’ll give you shelter from the storm.”
