Before the Scene Begins
Some moments do not announce themselves, they simply continue from where you already are, moving without explanation or performance.
Having spent long stretches living and working across the Philippines, I recognize how places assert rhythm before intention, how land dictates pace long before a camera is lifted. In the Chocolate Hills, movement slows not from hesitation but from scale, from the way the ground rises and falls in repeating silence, asking you to adjust breath, footing, and attention before anything else happens.
The Invitation
A prenup in Chocolate Hills is not introduced, it is entered.
The approach itself becomes part of the scene, traveling inland through narrow roads that climb gradually, the horizon breaking into rounded forms that repeat without symmetry. Visitors move quietly here, voices lowering as the terrain opens and the paths narrow, and posture changes as people stop trying to arrive quickly and instead learn how long it takes to cross open ground. I respond to this shift rather than interrupt it, letting the place set the tempo while the couple settles into it together.
The Descent
Once the camera lifts, Chocolate Hills begins feeding the scene without instruction.
Wind moves differently across open ridges than it does in forested areas, pressing steadily rather than gusting, and sound thins as elevation increases. Timing is dictated by cloud cover drifting across the hills, by the way light slides rather than strikes, and by the need to pause between rises. Direction becomes minimal because the environment already frames movement, spacing bodies naturally as they walk, stop, and turn in response to the land.
The Scene
Location: Chocolate Hills — a field of limestone mounds rising and falling across dry grass and exposed earth.
The sequence unfolds along a ridge where the ground curves gently underfoot, each step revealing another hill ahead, similar but never identical. In Chocolate Hills, the distance between points is deceptive, requiring steady pacing and shared awareness as the couple moves together across open space. As clouds pass, the surface tone shifts from muted brown to softened gold, and the background simplifies into repeating forms that isolate the figures without removing them from scale. This scene could only happen in Chocolate Hills, where repetition becomes rhythm and stillness feels earned rather than staged.
What It Actually Feels Like
A full-day cinematic prenup, shaped around light, movement, and rest. The day flows between moments of shooting and pauses for travel, wardrobe changes, and resets—without pressure or rushing.
You’ll receive 60-80 hand-edited digital stills, shaped through light and atmosphere into a visual memory. The experience may unfold in one setting or move across multiple locations and days, allowing contrast and progression without breaking the feeling of the story.
For motion, a 6–12-minute film can be added, drawn from the same moments as the stills.
The Way a Scene Finds Its Shape
Working in Chocolate Hills means adapting constantly to exposure, footing, and distance rather than imposing a fixed plan.
There are no walls or structures to lean on, only open ground and changing elevation, which demands attention to stamina and spacing. I allow the terrain to determine where pauses happen and how long moments last, responding to the land’s constraints as gifts rather than obstacles. The work remains quiet and responsive, shaped by the hills themselves, allowing each still and each film frame to stand on its own as a complete cinematic moment rather than part of a manufactured sequence.
About Me
I am Caz Isaiah — a Fragmented Memories photographer, shaping cinema from unscripted moments and the atmosphere around you. My work lives in the space between direction and intuition: the pull of weather, the shift of light, the breath before something real appears. Nothing posed, nothing forced — just scenes that feel lived and held with intention.
