A Mother’s Heart
Do you know what fills a mother’s heart? I don’t fully understand as well, but from what I’ve seen in the many shoots, here are some of what I can only present as an observer’s guess. Here’s my tribute to the mothers out there. A mother’s heart will always be excited for you, right from the news of your arrival up to each and every milestone. She will be the proudest for you, and you can’t have a bigger fan than her. She will be there to lift you up, even in times when you couldn’t. She will always have her eyes on you, both loving and watchful. Happy tears…

Pat Barrett Good Good Father Tour
Organizer: Becca Music Inc. Venue: Green Sun Hotel Function Hall with 360 Projection System Know more about Pat Barrett at: Pat Barrett Music There always seems to be this chasm we put between us “normal people” and our favorite artists, and just because they’re famous, we unconsciously put them on a pedestal. Interestingly though, that chasm closes once you get to meet them in person, you realize they are as normal as you are. They just seem to have put their dedication into that very thing they love to do and made it as normal as breathing, and for us, that is awesome. Enjoy the photos with his music in…

What Posing Cues Teach Us During Quarantine
The past few weeks of quarantine is giving me a bad case of cabin fever. I’m starting to talk to my plants now, and they have suggested that I make good use of my time and start archiving my photos and edit my backlogs. You know what, I’m a pretty impressionable guy so I get right to it. So while looking back at some of the wedding photos, especially the moments we pose you for your portrait shots as a couple, I remember the instructions I would coach you for the poses. As I go through each one, I realize that the instructions are teaching me a thing or two…

To Win the Battle, Begin at Home.
Truly scary times we live in, you know, 2020 hasn’t really been kind to us these few months, and with this virus going around, most of us would rather be staying at home. Such a drastic change in lifestyle I believe, especially in how you spend this time that’s suddenly in abundance. With much spare time in our hands I think it is a good opportunity to refocus, especially on how we spend it. While work still needs to be done, some companies are able to allow work at home arrangements, and also with the quarantine going on, that leaves us with a lot of extra time that we used…

A Rainy Day for a Photowalk
A week ago at around midnight while browsing facebook I chanced upon the event by Fujifilm regarding a nationwide photowalk, and to my delight, they have a category for non Fuji users! I signed up without a thought. On the day of the event the call time is at 6am, I’m lazy on my bed at 5:30am. Should I go?

The Gift of Platinum
In these days when the world doesn’t take marriages seriously, it is not surprising to hear of divorce, infidelity, and couples who simply give up on their promise for each other. Whether you believe in the sanctity of marriage or not, seeing someone you know to have their marriage break down is truly sad. But in spite all of this, there are rare, yes, truly rare stories of those that last! 25 Years? Not bad. 50 Years? That’s pretty good, but how about 70 years? Yes you read it right 70 years! You might look at your partner and ask your self: “Will we be able to make it 70…

Quintessential Vibe
I step into the wonderful lobby of Manila Peninsula for their Forbes 5 Star celebration night, I’m setting my expectations high for tonight’s program, because I know any celebration done in this grand lobby is always… you guessed it, grand! But when I asked about the program, they simply mentioned, in line with international women’s month, a musical performance by 5 ladies. I let out an inaudible “oh…” I guess they noticed that I was not that impressed, so they added, “Well, they’re gonna play together.” I still didn’t understand how that would go so I just let it pass. So fast forward a bit, after the speeches and thank…

Kebo Designs
Shot for: Keith A Brown Designs Location: DREAM Headquarters – DHQ Studio Make up by: Keyt Gaudier It was a chance meet up while I was doing an editorial shoot in a hotel in Manila, Kebo was just chillin’ at the hotel lobby with his camera on the table. I just complimented his camera, then without warning I got overwhelmed with his tidal wave of enthusiasm! The last thing I expected to hear from him though was that he is a fashion designer (among many other things). Pretty cool if you ask me. So when I heard that he was planning to visit here again I asked him to bring…

Michael and Edelyn – A Promise to You
I don’t know what the statistics are but I find it quite rare for those civilly married for a number of years to still push through with a church wedding. But for Michael and Edelyn, they made a promise to each other that they will one day have their walk down the aisle, make their promise again to each other, this time in the house of God. But they’re not just gonna have that, what a way to get excited for the wedding but to have a prenup as well, which is what they did! Along with their wonderful kids they come in full force for a day of fun…

It’s A Good Day to be Beautiful – Caryll Predebut
Just turned 18, Caryll is such a confident lady that’s ready to take on the world. But then as I take a more in depth look, and I see a set of parents who patiently and lovingly taught her well. However, you don’t need to wait till you’re 18 to start to glo up as a person. When you know that there is a God above you, watching over you, taking care of you, knows you inside out and even so, loves you, everyday is a good day to be beautiful. Let no one tell you otherwise.
