Learned the sad news through Ida, Marco Malaca‘s girlfriend, last Saturday. We were supposedly scheduled for a Trash the Dress shoot on May 25th. Ida told me that he had an accident and is still in the recovery room at that time. I didn’t wanna probe much as I understand that Ida might still be tuliro. But from what I learned sa forum, he has a dislocated shoulder; I’m thinking either car accident or a fall from a mountain climbing adventure (ya, aside from taking wedding pictures, their team is also composed of backpackers/rock/mountain climbers. How cool is that?).
As of current time, Marco is already up and texting; Says he’s doing better already. We’ll just have the TTD shoot rescheduled sometime in July, as per his request na rin. No biggie (more time for dieting and looking guuud). We don’t want to rush him into recovery. We want Marco to be in good shape when the ‘D Day comes. And of course we want him din naman to be prepared for the other brides. Imagine all the clients he has for June and May na lang. And op kors, kahit one time pa lang namin nakasama ang team nila Marco (a gruelsome yet exciting 8-hour shoot), we have developed some degree of concern na rin for them. They’re nice and accomodating people. Super fun kasama.
I know it sounds critical the very least because we still need to pick around 60 photos from approximately a thousand ones (incuding the prenup photos and TTD pictures on July) and Marco needs to painstakingly edit each one of them and make a unique AVP presentation out of all that in time for the wedding on August 8 (72 days as per our ticker), but I have faith he’ll deliver. I still consider me and Jigs lucky because he will be there during the wedding and he’ll be the one taking the TTD pics as well. No apprehensions and no worrying “Pano na ang wedding namin?”
My officemate Anne smarted, “Pag minamalas ka nga naman. May pasaway ka na na mananahi at nanay eh naaksidente pa ang kukuha ng pictures niyo”. But no, I’m positive about this. We will have a great TTD shoot and an equally great wedding. I ken pil it.
Praying for your fast recovery, Marco.
