"Something has changed within me Something is not the same. I'm through with playing by the rules Of someone else's game. Too late for second-guessing. Too late to go back to sleep. It's time to trust my instincts. Close my eyes and leap. It's time to try defying gravity... And you can't pull me down... " --Stephen Schwartz
If I didn't have my camera to remind me constantly, I am here to do this, I would eventually have slipped away, I think. I would have forgotten my reason to exist.

Bunao. Virgil Bunao. I'm a Summerville resident but travels all over the world. Clemson University graduate. Go tigers! I am a documentary photographer from Charleston, South Carolina. I find real challenge in wedding and children photography. Check out my site: www.cviphotography.com. I am happily married to my beautiful wife Courtney. I am Driven. I Love sushi, cabernet, merlot, starbucks, atlanta bread company, and documentary photography. I am not too fond of people with no drive.
I own a boutique studio- CVI Photography & Co.- based at the heart of Historic downtown Summerville. We are looking to promote the company as a "Destination Wedding Boutique Studio" in the next few months, documenting weddings in the Carribean, Napa Valley, Hawaii, US Virgin Islands, Fiji and beyond. So look us up- www.cviphotography.com
My main motto lately is about CHANGE-

Great seeing you the other night too!!!!! Tell Courney I said Hi!!!
Great job on Brandi & Sean's pictures! Saw them last night and they are great...as usual! Nikki and I would like to schedule something with you in December for ours! Keep up the good work and tell Courtney and your lil' man that we said hello!
He is freaking adorable! How have ya'll been? I miss the shows! Now I don't have excuses to leave town just for weekend getaways and make money too! HA
Virgil......I was just talking about you to Courtney yesterday. I had the bst time meeting you and I cannot wait for the pitures you and Sarah took I am sure they are going to be amazing. If they are on your website or anything you have to let me know so I can check them out.
Pare', I have written you but haven't heard from ya. Will contact you soon. Hopin to be in charleston soon. I can't tell you how angry I am that I didn't have you take pics for my wedding. Let's catch up !!!
Virgil! Good to hear from you. The pictures from Laura and Kent's wedding are BEAUTIFUL, AND, I really love the desert photos you took of the other couple on your myspace. You are very talented :) Nice to meet you and can't wait to see more of the newly weds photos as they come.
Hey Virgil! I love, love my photos! I keep looking at them and picking out different favorites:) I just wanted to say thanks again...having these beautiful photos of our wedding is really priceless! You're the Best!
im ready for senior pictures whenever you are and i will make sure to go talk to her tomorrow. i have some addresses but i have to get them all together. i have just sorta written them down here and there.
Thanks for everything you do!!! You were AWESOME at the wedding and we could not have asked for more:) Alan and I had a great time with you and we can't wait to see the pics:)
Virgil - Your son is beautiful!!! Can you believe it has been a year? We've been talking about you lately -- seems we will have more work for you :-) We are expecting in September.. hence why I still never spend much time on here or ever change my pics... I'll have to do that some day soon.... :-) How are mom, dad, and baby doing?
I will keep that in mind. I am glad to hear it wasn't a problem. Let me know if you have any time during the week one evening...maybe Wednesday or Thursday for me to stop by to pick up the DVD. I hope you had a great weekend. Tell Courtney I said "hello". See ya! :O)
Please tell me you got my text message this morning? I sent one to let you know that we had a change of plans and I wouldn't be able to come by today. I hope it wasn't an inconvenience. :O)
Hey Virgil! No need to apologize. I TOTALLY understand that you are busy. Saturday morning would work fine with me. You just name the time. It is too bad that Courtney had to go back to work. I am sure she would much rather be home with Jacob. But at any rate, at least he gets to stay with you and doesn't have to go to daycare just yet. Get to have some daddy/son bonding time. :O) So just let me know what time on Saturday is good for you and I will be there. Talk to you soon. Give Jacob a kiss for me. Love you guys.
