John Ray Yamsuan and Katrina Bianca Catan were joined as one in holy matrimony in an intimate but fun-filled wedding the kind of which we’ve never experienced before!

JR and Bianca, for one, are one fun-loving couple!

The wedding, by today’s standards, was a no-frills, small-group, family-&-friends affair. While only a few were invited, it was by no means a huhum, boring wedding to cover. Far from it!

The truth of the matter is – in our modest experience on wedding coverages, it was the most enjoyable, stress-free, and fun-filled wedding gig we ever did.

All the best wishes to the new couple – Bianca & JR! May you two be blessed with a most joyous and wonderful life ahead of you!

Cheers!

Sinulog 2009 in Cebu City was a blast!

calle Zaragosa productions was commissioned to document the participation of the Buyogan Festival of Abuyog, Leyte at the Sinulog last January 18,2009.

And, indeed, it was such a rewarding experience for everyone as the Buyogan Festival emerged champion of Sinulog ’09!

A brief backgrounder for those not in the know: the Buyogan Festival is the current title holder as champion of the Leyte Pintados-Kasadyaan Festival held last June 27, 2008 during the Tacloban City fiesta celebration. The last time Buyogan Festival participated in the Sinulog was in 1996 (?) – more than a decade ago.

Documentation work included coverage of the contingent’s rehearsals as well as other behind-the-scene activities. Our team accompanied the contingent to Cebu, leaving Tacloban for Ormoc early morning of January 15, and taking the fully-loaded slow boat to Cebu (by coincidence, also travelling with us in the ship were the contingents from Dulag’s Tribu Karatong and Borongan’s Karasikas group.)

We took thousands of photos many of which still need to be post-processed. In the meantime, one may view the highlights of the main Sinulog Parade here: http://callezaragosa.com/Sinulog09LRGallery-01/index.html

Watch out for more galleries to come!

The birth of calle Zaragosa productions’ site in the web has long been forthcoming – the general idea has actually been floating around for months. What finally triggered its induced birth, so to speak, were two successive events which happened this month (a very good sign, for sure) – the Cebu Sinulog 2009 festival and the JR-Bianca Nuptials.

I’ll have to leave this post meantime while I go figure out how to set up the other widgets and settings with this new baby…

This post will be further edited and revised in due time!
