Journey to American Dream

Good day! Ellen & I went to Manila for our scheduled interview at the US Embassy last September 22 and t'was indeed an exciting journey. We only had coffee for breakfast as our interview was scheduled at 7:30 a.m.. We even forgot to bring a pen with us so we have to borrow from someone on the line. (a lesson learned) :)

We knew we have been APPROVED when the interviewer who happens to speak Tagalog said; ok,you have to proceed to Del bros and pay for the delivery charge and have a good day. Whew, what a relief to hear that we were approved and looking forward to the day where we can shoot and enjoy our trip.

We are now waiting for the Visa to arrive and hopefully our trip will push through early next year (March to April of 2010, in time of the WPPPI Convention.) We would be glad to make ourselves available for those who will be needing our services (pre-nuptial session, portraits, post-nuptial shoots, birthdays) during those dates. I will be posting the updates of our schedule so we can arrange the IT. Best regards.

UPDATE September 25:
When it rain it pours

Just received the visa and WOW, we were granted a 10 year-multiple entry US Visa.
