[Asia News Communication = Reporter Reakkana] DAVAO CITY – All they wanted was a simple prenuptial pictorial where both of them would wear casual attires. But the circumstances had better plans for couple Katherine Joyce Umbajeno and Aguinaldo Tan, Jr. The couple’s prenuptial photoshoot last December 21 is now trending online for having a nature-themed setting inspired by the biblical figures Adam and Eve.
In an interview with The Manila Bulletin, Umbajeno said "We only wanted to wear casual clothes because we do not want to spend a lot for our wedding. There was a heavy downpour at that time so we thought about that concept." The photos and videos for their prenup shoot were taken by Edward Namare and Vince Manalo of Astersic Photography. They have so far garnered 25,000 shares since December 22. "We really had to be flexible because if we canceled the scheduled prenup, we still had to pay for the videographer again,” she added.
Umbajeno admitted that their families were initially surprised to see them “in paradise-like Adam and Eve” minus the apple and the snake. They later admitted that the result of the photoshoot was unique. "At first, they were shocked because they knew we had a different plan. Later on, they were proud of us and told us not to mind those who were posting negative comments,” she said.
