What do they say about men in uniform? We met the groom, Jay-Ar De Guzman, in jeans and a t-shirt. Captain Jay-Ar De Guzman, is a helicopter pilot in the Philippine Air Force but I didn’t really think anything of it until we shot their AVP in Villamor Air Base. I saw him change from jeans, to a flight suit, to blue uniform to his white Gala uniform. It really makes a difference when you see somebody dress in their Gala outfit. So much so that it brought tears to Jay-Ar’s Dad when he started dressing up for the wedding.He looked so young and funny, when we met him, that I didn’t realize just how responsible and hardworking he was. (And that also goes for all the people in the in the Air Force.) And I’m just writing about the groom. Ada, the bride, is a Lawyer for the Ombudsman. She is small and petite. You wouldn’t even think she could hurt a fly.
This wedding was supposed to be held in Baguio city, Ada’s hometown & Jay-Ar home for a few years while studing in the Philippine Military Academy(PMA). Due to Super Typhoon Pepeng, they had to move the wedding to Manila. With the help of cousin George, they had to plan the wedding from scratch. That was when our photographer friend Alfred Mendoza who is also the best friend of Jay-ar contacted us a month before the wedding. They also wanted an AVP so we had to come up with a concept in a limited period of time. The good thing was that they already had one. They wanted their love story AVP to be based on the Telenovela “Tayong Dalawa”. Which was about a soldier also named J.R. and his love interest. We shot the AVP in Villamore Air Base complete with Flying helicopters and antique airplanes. It was a very nice location to do the shoot. I would highly recommend it for pre nups, that’s if you can get in. HAHAHA!
Watch their Onsite MTV and AVP Love Story….
