Babies are very charismatic creatures. A glimpse at their cute angelic faces will surely make you say, "Awww" and mind you, all infants no older than 3 months are all "cute". Well, at least to me.


This is Enya. My cousin's second child and is currently on her 5th month. It was my first time seeing her and my first reaction was how much she really looked like her mom! A stunning mini replica of herself.

bought a cheap pen and tablet last month as I've been so curious with digital painting. I can't believe I actually thought that it would be easier than drawing by hand. It took me some time to get used with the pen, my grip, my pressure, etc. perhaps the only advantage with this is the ability use ctrl + Z. hahaha! The photo above is the current one that I made. I just used the hair from my base photo because well, I still don't know how to paint haiiir :( I could still use some more work here but I'm tired as hell so..

Revisiting old photos and had the sudden urge to edit photos from last year's fun shoot (photos here and here) with Darlene, Myka, and Ameg. I love the quirky ones and decided to add PNG's on them. I hope the girls won't mind :D
There's this song that's been bothering me, in a good way, and it has the phrase "the young ones" in it but I can't seem to remember the title not the band. It was used in Gossip Girl and it has a very catchy whistling tone in the beginning. gaaaaah. EDIT: the song is "Young Folks" by Peter Bjorn and Johnand the phrase in the chorus was "young style" not, "young ones" hahaha! but whatever, enjoy this set! :)

Little shoot with Yaniee. We were supposed to do something that has guns and smokes but there was a gun ban in Iloilo so this happened. It really pays when you have a friend who has a closet full of pretty clothes!!! Thanks again Rhon for the accommodating us! :D

Few more photos from my shoot with my model friend, Yaniee, and balikbayan, Jenny. I felt in love with Selena G's new song and I was basically listening to it on loop while editing the photos. Went a little playful here. so this is an attack of textures! :)

My dear friend Jenny was home for a week from the UK so we scheduled a mini shoot with Yaniee! These are all whimsical ideas and I'm so glad that we've done around three sets that day! This is an ode to those who live to procrastinate. If you can finish it tomorrow, why finish it now? :)) Not saying that procrastinating is a good habit but...

Ameg and I had been dreaming of doing this and even if I was supposed to be somewhere else that day, I had to make it happen. Many thanks to Kit for taking out photos!!! It was kind of him to take us to his happy place :)
It was my first time to do something like this so except a lot of awkwardness. Thank you.

I'm really glad that I'm now a part of Viewfinders, a group of young professionals specializing in wedding photography and is based in Iloilo. It was my first time to shoot a wedding and there were two occasions that day. How lucky can I get? It was a very heart warming experience for me. I've been dreaming my own wedding since I was too young to even have a boyfriend. Seeing them in a mixture of emotions - anxiety and excitement the most - a few minutes before the ceremony as the bride rushes to fix her shoes while her make-up artist retouches her lips, and as the groom stand on the isle, impatiently waiting for the bride to arrive. But seeing how happy they are after the priest declared them as husband and wife was just a great feeling that I wish I'd be able to experience someday.

Here are some of the photos that I got last Tuesday. I must say that both the brides looked wonderful that day.

I haven't used Adobe Lightroom for like a year or more so when I saw an installer on my folders, I gave it another try. And look, they now have a copyright / watermark feature - or I just haven't noticed that before.

Had a funshoot with Keisha and Steven (Ban). They're not a coupe but the shoot turned out ala prenup. :)) peace, I don't mean harm 

Had my first pre-nuptial shoot for Viewfinders on the 7th of May for Christopher and Jeremae's wedding. It was my first time to work with professionals and my jaw dropped on all their fancy equipments and stuff. But despite the fact that they really meant serious business, I had a fun time "working" with them. So fun that it didn't seem like we were even working. :)) Anyway, here are a few photos from the shoot. These aren't the official ones though.
I had a hard time working on the colors so sorry if they're not that consistent.
