Date : September 20, 2008
Church : Sta. Monica Parish, Laoag, Ilocos Norte
Reception : Fort Ilocandia, Ilocos Norte
Photographers : Lito Q. Genilo, Zandro Quimson and Andrew Santos



Last September 20, I had the real pleasure of photographing the wedding of Junius and Elaine. The ceremony took place at Sta. Monica Church and then on to the stunning location of Fort Ilocandia, which is one of my favourite wedding venues for photography in Ilocos Region. Both of them were great on the day and really enjoyed taking time out to get some of our signature shots for them.

The party was ended almost midnight and it was clearly a very enjoyable day!

Junius and Elaine thank you so much for choosing us to be a part of your day, we both had a great time with you.

Again, we’re trying to share a little bit more about how we ’see’ a day, start to finish - so here’s a little bit of this and a little bit of that. Pay special attention to their ‘first sight’ in the garden - I think that just maybe you can actually FEEL the love:
Girls spend hours primping, hugging, and even a little bit of crying.

Trash the dress with Roga and Anne ( San Francisco CA. USA )

Date ; September 3, 2008
Location : Sausalito, California, USA
Photographer : Lito Q. Genilo

Roga and Anne are a couple that compliment each other so well. Anne is super outgoing and willing to try anything for this shoot, and Roga is a bit more subdued. This balance makes for a wonderful pairing. Although a great relationship, it kind of made an interesting challenge for me (”the other Roga”) - and interesting can bring about great things. Hope that you enjoy and stay tuned for their upcoming December 27th wedding in San Jose California.

We celebrated our first monthsary last sept. 8 and we watched last night the video of our wedding, we would like to thank you again for making that day special and memorable, we truly love our wedding and you made it possible..... Again thanks and may God bless you more!

  Ricky and Rhea Pega

Hi Ate Mheann,

My friends, my fiancee and I had a wonderful time during the photo shoot. My fiancee said that Kuya Lito is very professional and he really knows what he is doing. Plus his pose for us were not repetitive. Nagustuhan nya po si Kuya Lito. He was saying na sana sya na lang po sa December pero lam po nya di pwede. I told him na Kuya Nestor is trained by Kuya LIto anyway.
I am just wondering kung kelan po pala namin makikita yung end product nung photo shoot and also mapapakita sa website....Excited na po kami lalo na si Roga. He actually felt like a model for a day...Nakakatuwa po yung experience. Nakaacquire na din po si Kuya Lito nang potential clients from my friends and acquaintance. Anyway, Please let me know kung ano na po ang nangyayari sa engagement shoot pictures namin and when we will see it. Take care and God BLEss...

Roga and Anne


Hello to all staff of Smartshot headed by Mr Lito Genilo,

Once again thanks so much for the wonderful photos and video (same day edit) taken during our recent wedding. It was admired by a our relatives/friends from different parts of the world. You made us proud and realized that we made the right decision of choosing your comp. The photos posted in your website were also great with those various effects.

With regards to our chosen photos for the album, we are just waiting for our official photos taken during our recent Cardiff marriage blessing/celebration. We had it last Aug 25 for our UK relatives and friends.

We are aware of the 200 allowable photos in total and we will stick to it. We just wanted to include some of our photos taken in Cardiff so it would be compiled into one. We will send you the codes of the chosen photos from Phil celebration (done) as well as copies of the additional (not much) from Cardiff the soonest possible time.

Thanks very much for your kind assistance. More power..

Best Regards
Katherine and Stephen Daniel
