My new baby and my sort of first commercial shoot.

Finally my very own shoot through umbrella system!

Check out my kicks! Okay let us not stray away from the topic.

Canndice and her new buddy.

Thank god for salary because I now have this! A shoot through umbrella that I have been craving ever since I started shooting fashion and portraits way back. I just wish I have more money to buy that 5-in-1 reflector but then again I need to save up for another flash and a receiver of course not to mention another light stand but yeah that will be later on once I got to master how to use this one. 

Will upload some photos soon on my first ever commercial shoot since I have 200+ raw photos to process.

Sunny Sunday Shoot.

Sundays are best spent resting from all that stress, smog and hassles of work but in my case I'd rather spend my sunny Sunday with my friends out in the sun taking their photos than sitting in front of the computer and just surfing the internet sipping Coke and eating more.

Yesterday's weather was nice and sunny with a touch of cool breeze so I head out to UP Diliman with Rejh, Carvs and Yvesse to do a shoot. A week before the shoot I asked Rejh and Yvesse if they could dress up as hippies and showed them some pegs for the shoot which I don't normally do but then again showing pegs makes things easier since I already know the look that I want and the poses that they should do. Armed with my ever loving camera Canndice with a 50mm 1.8 we wander the lush green scenery of the campus taking one photo after another. After shooting in UP Diliman we head out to LaMesa Eco Park for a change of scene but to our demise there were a lot of families picnicking and the sun was covered with lots of clouds so the lighting was pretty difficult since what I want is to capture a sunny, nature loving people but then again I was able to capture really nice photos in some areas and there we rested for quite a bit and head out to eat at Mister Kebab in West Triangle then we went straight home.

A big up to Rejh, Yvesse and Carvs for yesterday's awesome adventure.

Cheers!

September behind the scenes

Christmas commercially starts at September here in the Philippines the countdown before Christmas in evening news starts, Christmas jingles starts to fill the air, malls are planning Christmas promos even before they put up their Halloween decorations and somehow I am will now be giving out the mandatory "pamasko" to my little godsons and daughters (I think I have 5 godchildren already even before I graduate from college-wait I think high school it is) but let us save all that Christmas talk and let's go back to September.

Here are some of the behind the scenes photos during the shoot for our September issue at Camera Cart in Quezon City with Erich Gonzales and Enchong Dee for our cover and Sir Erwin Barleta as our photographer.

So yeah, you guys do better check out the September issue of Gadgets which is out now and I assure you that we have prepared tons of awesome stuff inside to fill your latest buzz in the tech and lifestyle world.

Lost in Los Baños

I has been raining non-stop here in Manila and I have been really busy with work on the previous weeks and today is the only day that I got to update my blog and I am terribly sorry for that.

August 20, 2011 Rejh and I decided to do a shoot while roaming UP Los Baños and with the help of her friend in the office- Jhoiycze we roamed around the area and explored the Makiling Gardens. It was fun, tiring and awesome since I was doing a shoot and which I really miss and having to bond with my awesome friend. Aside from that we had one of the most mouth-watering inexpensive Siomais at Papu's and we had one of the most unforgettable cake in Los Baños- Mernel's Cake, sadly I forgot to take a photo of the cake while it is still intact and pretty.

It was fun to go somewhere far and get lost in the lush and beautiful scenery with friends and have sumptuous food. Thanks to Rejh and to her love- Karl as well as to Jhoiycze for the tour. :)

September is Coming.

Just doing a quick check and post here, you guys better watch out for September because it is going to be AWESOME.  :)
