Hey All!
Towards the end of last year, we got to celebrate the union of Juslyn & Alec. She found us after we worked with her brother Justin and sister-in-law. Yes, another Dulay! When we found out, we were ecstatic!
It’s been a while since we did an intimate wedding. We are glad we got to spend the first one in a while with Juslyn & Alec. Thanks guys for having us share the special day with you and your family!
Enjoy the quick photo recap of the day guys!

Hey guys! We got the opportunity to photograph a beautiful wedding at the Hale Koa Estate in Hau'ula, and we had the honor of working with my cousin Fay and new cousin Lawrence. We had our good friend Glenn of Dreamlight Portraits along with us for the experience.
Every talk leading up to the big day brought back memories of when I used to hang with Fay and Fay's sister Emily at family parties and their house when we were younger. Still in shock and awe that she asked us to cover her big day haha! On wedding day, I finally got to meet Lawrence. My new cousin is originally from Liberia, and I had never spoken to him until that day. From the moment we met, he treated me as if I were a part of his own family. The funny thing is, a matter of hours from then, he would be joining mine. I knew from that moment on, my cousin was in good hands.
Thank you Fay and Lawrence for having us. It was a beautiful day for the both of you, and was an awesome Liberian/Filipino wedding. Best wishes and many years for the both of you to come! Enjoy a few looks from their day!

Hey everyone! It has been a crazy month filled with such crazy weather! With on and off rain accompanied with sudden winds, who knew what type of weather wedding day was going to have for us! But with faith and the grace of God, we were able to have a beautiful day in the East side of Oahu! We had the pleasure of having Glenn of Dreamlight Portraits, join us on this beautiful day.
I've known Joseph for a few years through photographing some of his fights (yes people, he is a fighter as well lol). When he contacted us (after scoldings from Bethe for taking too long haha) and asked us if we would shoot their wedding, we knew we wouldn't say no! It was quite the sight seeing a different side of Joseph, and we were glad to finally/officially meet the woman who has had Joseph's heart for years. I can see why! You guys are so cute together!
Throughout the day, we shared many laughs with this fun and crazy family! It was such a beautiful day and we were blessed to have been a part of it. Thank you guys for having us, and we wish you and your beautiful family many blessings for the years to come! Check out a few sneak peeks we have of their big day!

Professing your love for one another is always a lovely site, especially when doing so in front of the Lord. A quick ceremony took us to Hawaii First Samoan Assembly of God with Tui & James. The way you see friends and family come together to celebrate such an occasion, is an eye opening sight. Tears from emotional moments accompanied by laughter from jokes with a mother, this wedding was nothing short of momentous. Congrats Tui & James! May the good Lord bless you time and time again, and congratulations!

My oh my where has the time gone? Can we call this *Time Flies Tuesday?* hehe. It's been a little over a year since we shot Kelly & Bradda Boy's wedding, and we would like to say happy one year anniversary guys! It was quite an experience. Early that morning, we weren't sure if we would be dealing with yucky rain, as it had been raining the previous days and the forecast was indeed gloomy. Right up until an hour or so before the ceremony, the sun gracefully made it's appearance.
The ceremony and reception were filled with joyful memories, all enjoyed by the company of Kelly & Bradda Boy's friends and family. Thank you guys for choosing us to capture such memories!
If it's one thing special I heard throughout that day, it was from Bradda Boy's mom, Monica. Aunty Monica told and assured me "Francis, prayers ALWAYS WORK". Thank you aunty for that awesome piece of wisdom. Happy one year Kelly & Bradda Boy!!!

This wedding blog post was supposed to have gone up a LONG time ago, but we didn't have a blog yet :(... Thankfully, after moving our site and integrating things over, (as you all can already tell) we now have a blog yay!!!
This was actually our first wedding as Francis Philip Quibilan Photography. Just my lovely better half and I (she's an awesome assistant/partner!).
Kainani & Jace are basically gym family to us (we trained Muay Thai under the same roof as 808 Top Team). Kainani and her father, MMA legend, Ron *The Machine Gun* Jhun joked about us shooting their wedding. We laughed about it until we found out their wedding was about a week from that day!
Regardless of it being close and time constrained, we had a blast covering it. We learned so much from it, and are blessed to this day for having the Jhun/Kaopua family use us as their wedding photographers. Enjoy!
