DecisiveMoment's first newspaper feature, Manila Standard, August 23, 2001
A decisive photograph – raw and unedited, taken at the right moment – makes a split-second last forever. An ideal wedding photograph should remind you of that fleeting instance on a day blurred by a rollercoaster of emotions.
For ten years, DecisiveMoments has been capturing weddings as it unfolds, like history, in front of our lenses. This is our concept of wedding reportage – taking pictures, not making them.
DecisiveMoments believes that your wedding deserves to be documented by a photographer with an eye for that creative fraction-of-a-second the moment it presents itself.
The company was founded in 2002 by veteran photographer Mel Cortez, a former staff photojournalist of local paper BusinessWorld. Since 1981, he has had extensive exposure in the fields of editorial, corporate, travel, advertising, and fashion photography.
Our photographers, led by Mel himself, are trained to produce the conventional portrait or group picture while keeping an eye out for that decisive moment – a flash of emotion, a photojournalistic instance – that makes your wedding unique.
