Hot Air Balloon Engagement Session in the Philippines

Last Updated: March 18th, 2021/14 Commentsby Meredith

Gordon and Princess had a hot air balloon engagement session to remember! Every year there is a hot air balloon festival in Clark, Pampanga in the Philippines. So Gordon and Princess decided to take advantage of that amazing backdrop for their engagement photos. What a romantic setting and absolutely beautiful photographs to capture the moment. They met up with talented photographer Ryan Ortega, who was kind enough to share these photos with us!

We love the photo of them running away from the collapsing balloon.

We love this photo! We have seen similar ones with a Polaroid, but never with an iPhone.

Gordon and Princess made these giant letters and calendar date to use for their save the dates–what a great idea!
