A young couple who’s soon to be married decided to shoot their prenuptial photos at the university where they first met–the University of Santo Tomas (UST). Adding to the nostalgic kilig vibe referencing the love story of Basha and Popoy, Ean and Mary dressed up in Korean-inspired casual outfits and had their cute candid moments at their alma mater captured cinematically!

Film8, the team behind these lovely photos, shared that they photographed them using classic 35mm analog film. This contributed to the overall aesthetic, immortalizing the vivid moments of the soon-to-be bride and groom.

That was exactly what the college sweethearts were aiming for. Together since their third year in college, they wished to “encapsulate their love story in a way that was both meaningful and memorable.”

“Balikan natin yung mga panahong nagmemeryenda tayo sa labas ng gate habang nakaupo tayo sa waiting shed, sharing earphones to listen to music, at yung mga pagtambay natin sa lovers lane during vacant.”
