Master Wedding Photographer:

MR ANDY TECSON

For as long as I have been doing wedding makeovers, there’s one gentleman who has long been capturing weddings splendidly through his photographic lenses. That man is none other than Mr. Andy Tecson, master photographer.

As an event planner, I tell my clients that one of the most crucial decisions they have to make is choosing a professional photographer who can capture the essence of the occasion they are celebrating. Of course, there a lot of good photographers out there but it takes a special kind of something to be able to build a quick relationship with a photographic subject so that the latter is comfortable posing for the camera.

Subok ko na talaga ito si Andy. We have done so many weddings together. The chemistry is there already. While I’m tasked with making the brides beautiful, his is to make sure that everyone remembers this for generations to come through his wonderful, elegant portraits.

Among the weddings we have done together include the nuptials of Lorna Legaspi, Rosanna Ramos-Guintu, Marie Tan-Nolasco Labid, Miriam Chui-Ireton, and the bride of Atty. Aquino, among others. All these brides really sparkled like diamonds during their special day and thanks to Andy, this memory will be fresh in their minds because of the photographs.

Andy has had 45 years experience in photography. He was first trained by his potrait-painter father, Lauro Tecson, a protégé of the great Philippine National Artist Fernando Amorsolo.

Besides being a photographer for , Andy is also an accomplished financial and estate planning consultant. Andy is also a talented musician who skillfully plays the violin, guitar and mandolin.

Andy Tecson is indeed one of the Fil-Am community’s Leading Men. Mabuhay ka Andy!

I hope everyone had a great and safe 4th of July celebrations!
