\"photo-by-marc-and-phoebe-aviles.jpg\"Marc<\/a> <\/strong>& Phoebe Aviles<\/a><\/strong> are two award-winning Pinoy photographers and the husband-and-wife tandem who recently setup the Memory Station Studio<\/a> based in San Jose, California. Both of them are currently featured as Member(s) of the Month in the April edition of the Wedding & Portrait Photographers International (WPPI) newsletter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here’s an excerpt from their interview in the article entitled “Two is Company<\/a><\/em>“<\/em> written by Margaret Lane detailing the couple’s style as wedding photographers:<\/p>\n

“Our signature look is to incorporate landscape or scenery along with the couple and let the colors shout. Marc is a great landscape and nature photographer who has a knack for making the most of these outdoor settings and putting couples at ease,”<\/em> says Phoebe.<\/p>\n

Marc even shared about a new look they’re dabbling in, calling it “an investment in infrared photography.” He elaborates, “Using a Canon 20D, which we converted to an infrared, we take the shot even further to produce surreal or ethereal moods. We added this look after falling in love with the eeriness and mysterious feel of the infrared shots. The trees and leaves become reflected in the sunlight differently and give a different impression, the skin becomes flawless, the brown eyes become blue and it’s atmospheric. Infrared almost defies some basic rules of photography.” <\/em><\/p>\n

Phoebe still pulls in long hours each day, working in the information technology industry to keep a steady income. She helps Marc with the business during the week by retouching photos at night. They both shoot on weekends.<\/p>\n

“With our family and friends’ encouragement we were inspired to start this business,”<\/em> comments Phoebe. “But that’s not to say we didn’t have some hurdles! While we had a substantial portfolio with glamour, engagement, portrait, landscape, event, documentary, product shot and fine art photography, we lacked a true wedding portfolio. So we highlighted appropriate images and displayed a handful of wedding images to prospective clients.” <\/em>[READ THE FULL FEATURE…<\/a>]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
