    Pam & Miguel

    Let’s Time Travel! Pam & Miguel asked to have their couple photoshoot at the place where they met each other: San Beda College of Law. And as we walked through the halls of their school, I could sense them reminiscing about the years when they just met. Although this is not my first time inside the campus, it is my first time to have a photoshoot here. We had our shoot in between 3:00-5:00 PM on a sunny Saturday, where we walked ( and pretty much laughed) the afternoon away. Although it has been months since the time of this portrait session, I can still remember how these two greeted…

  • Engagement Sessions,  Family Occasion,  Portraits

    Anna and Chris | Baguio Portrait Session

    “Collect moments, not things. “ Venue: Baguio City, Oh My Gulay Shoot: Portrait Session with Chris and Anna 🙂 The gift of the pause is given to those who seek it.  Everybody is busy. Somehow, someway, we always find  more stuff to occupy our days. Urgent, non-urgent, important, not important. We have mental sorting boxes for tasks, that… never get sorted out or done anyway. Yet, everyday, by the grace of God, opens up fresh, and full of possibilities. Looking ahead, looking forward and at the same time… dreaming and yet moving. Another day, is another story to tell.  Anna and Chris opened a new chapter as husband and wife. Their…

    Ray and Steph | Antipolo Bee House Engagement Session

    Steph and Ray are getting married in December, and we celebrated this milestone through an engagement session in the ANTIPOLO BEE HOUSE. It’s quite a riot when you’re photographing people who you’ve known for more than half of your life. Lots of jokes get cracked in the middle of the shoot, and laughter explosions are a staple, making it a challenge to pause and pose. Yeay for plenty of good memories! These two are close to my heart, since we also shared quite a number of shoots together at Smart Parenting and Top Gear. It’s also a fun fact that Steph and Ray’s paths crossed at a time when they…

    Raffy and Carmela | Engagement Session | Urdaneta Village

    Photographing families, kids and babies have long occupied the base of my heart. Even when I’m shooting weddings, I tend to follow my tiny friends who are usually the nephews or nieces of our clients. In the case of Raffy and Carmela, well, let’s just say I had met “Mea” at a time that she could still pass off as a flower girl. She is one of my sister’s closest friends and it is such a great thing that they have managed to stay in touch, as they leaf through new chapters in life. Because of that, she too is like family to me. Congratulations Raffy and Carmela! God Bless…

    Nikoy and Donna | Macau Engagement Session

    My siblings and I were originally just planning to have a pretty normal travel holiday ( if there is actually such a thing :P), but just to make things more fun and memorable, we decided to document it, in style! Nikoy is my older brother. He got married to Donna over the weekend. Howdy sister-in-law! We wandered the streets of Macau together with my sister Maggie, and enjoyed every second of the day, wherever our feet took us. It was a nice bonding time for us too as siblings. It’s such a pleasure that I could share my passion for photography with my family.  Here are some teaser photos. To…
