Model Family

Since everybody was at our house yesterday for my Mom and Tita's birthday celebration, I practically forced my cousins (and sister) to model for Damit Co.'s 35th Batch of clothes. =)

On second thought, I don't think I forced them at all!

Do these girls look forced to you? =p

Bag & Makeup Shoot

I did a shoot for Enchanting Bags, designed by Yvette Floro, and distributed online by Jantu Revilla. At the same time, the models' make up artist, Rose Villanueva, who happens to be a good friend of mine, used the photos for her make up portfolio.

*Photos were taken on May 2010 at Astoria Plaza*

Errand Day

I was asked to drive my sisters Em & Vanessa to Quezon City. Em had an audition while Vanessa was going to sleepover at our cousin's house. While waiting for Em, I met up with two of my cousins, Naomi & Kitty.

This photo was taken before I left the house by my 11 year old sister, Vanessa. Good thing my younger sister knows how to use the camera and was able to take a well-focused picture. Post-processin by yours truly. ;)

Portraits of my younger sister, Emerald. I did her make-up and improvised on making the shawl into a dress. Pins are indeed quite handy ;)

That Pretty Little Church on Top of a Hill

So they say that Caleruega Church in Tagaytay is the Pinay's ultimate dream wedding church. It is indeed very beautiful and it has a very romantic feel for every girl's dream day. So, if every single Pinay would want to get married in this church, I'm not so sure I'd like to get married here as well. Hehe ;) But it is without doubt a lovely venue :)

A stolen shot of the bride who was getting married that day.

I made the photo seem "dreamy" assuming this is the bride's dream wedding destination ;)

A pretty spot for a photo op ;)

Whoever Said Loose Shirts Aren't Sexy?

I did a shoot yesterday for my clothing line, Damit Co.'s 34th Batch. Many thanks to my model, Zabrina, for helping me project my vision: Loose shirts CAN be sexy. Our venue was at Christopher's Rolls, my current favorite coffee lounge in the area.

Here are some of the shots from yesterday's fashion shoot:

Special thanks to my good friend Karen, for doing Zab's hair and makeup.

The tops are sold for P280.00 each, and so far, 7 tops were ordered as soon as I posted the album!

So, what are you waiting for? LIKE my page at FACEBOOK and order away! ;)

By the way, Damit Co. is now accepting orders from U.S., Canada, & Switzerland! ;D

Street Photography

Photos I took while inside the car - June 2009.

"Rag Express"

I asked him to smile while I was taking his photo, then I realized that half of his face was covered to protect his skin from the heat of the scorching sun. I'm pretty sure he did smile underneath his improvised face mask. : )

"Takatak Boy"

A boy buying a stick of cigarette during heavy traffic.

"Water, Cigarette, & Chips Express"

A lady street vendor selling goodies.

Muffin / Mappins

My cousin Kitty's poofy dog, Muffin a.k.a. Mappins (as pronounced by Manang) ;>
