4 Days in London – MelRish Travel Diaries

Traveling to a new city every year is our family goal. Other people invest on big houses, luxury cars and jewelry. But for us, we try to invest on making memories and going on adventures. We try to teach our kids also to go out of their comfort zones and experience the world. The experience, […]

Melissa’s Maternity Photoshoot

In a few hours we will be flying to London but I am cramming to finish all the pending work before we go on our family trip. I am excited and thankful because I thought I wouldn’t be able to get Warner Bros tickets to Harry Potter set but guess what, someone cancelled theirs and […]

Destination Post Wedding Photoshoot in Dubai

N & D are from Mauritius and they booked us 6 months before they flew in for their honeymoon in Dubai. It is such a delightful feeling to have couples admire your work but it is such a great treat when they seem to know you because they follow your blog. So N asked how […]

Wedding in H Hotel | Matt and Ash

I had an illusion that I would be able to finish a lot of pending jobs and post a lot of blogs during the last Ramadan…there were no weddings to shoot and lesser working hours means I would have a lot of help at home. Unfortunately, I was tied up with household chores and taking […]

Ram and Jobelle’s Love Story | A Prenup Photosession

By this time, Ram and Jobelle are probably enjoying their honeymoon. They just recently tied the knot back in Isabela, Philippines and I bet it was a beautiful wedding.

Senior Portrait Session with Esther

Have you seen Mulan in person? We thought we had. If Disney would make a movie for Mulan with real people, Esther would be the perfect person to play her part. Talented and brainy, this girl has the smile to brighten anyone’s day. She graduates this year and will attend university in USA. Esther has […]

Park Hyatt Golf Club Wedding | Faisal and Faoz

We had a pleasure of shooting Faisal and Faoz’s wedding last year in the Park Hyatt Golf Club. But a few months before that, we had a beautiful engagement session at The Farm and at their beach side residence in Ras Al Khaimah. I blogged it here and here. We always love shooting at Park Hyatt […]

A Wedding in Arabian Ranches Maison Mathis | Brad and Severine

We have done more than a hundred weddings – some as grand as a royal wedding and some are simple and intimate. But what makes a wedding beautiful is not how much was spent on the decors and details nor how many guests were invited…it always goes done on how the couple have enjoyed the […]

Fernando and Norelyn got married a year before this photoshoot in the beautiful Batanes Islands in the northern part of the Philippines. It is one of the places in the Philippines which is in our bucket list because of it’s beautiful surroundings, clear blue sea, green grass and stone houses. Just google Batanes and check out […]
