At Home with the Sisons | Family Portraits
Laughter is the best heirloom. 🙂 Our family shoots are actually available all year round. But it is during the holidays when shoots like these are most remembered and appreciated. Although there are more ways these days to stay in touch with family, there is that one that that cannot yet be replaced — it’s the family noise! The funny banters between siblings, cousins, husband and wife, grand parents and grand children, is something that is unique to every family. The familiarity of course… allows for these kinds of funny exchanges to be totally and absolutely necessary. And I just love how, priceless moments, captured in stills will be reminding…

Talia’s Baptism | Santuario de San Antonio
The journey of a thousand miles must begin…with God 🙂 The Reyes Family ( Girlie, Migs and Kuya Quino) has been gifted with yet another blessing and she goes by the name Talia. We celebrated together during the day of her Baptism, at Santuario de San Antonio, where friends and loved ones came to make more good memories. We have a side-story by the way. Mommy Girlie made the day extra special by decorating the candles with one of my most favorite craft items — WASHI TAPE! 🙂 She managed to get some rolls of the designs that she wanted online, and because of that, we’ve got more candle photos…

Fruits and Roots | Bendicion Family Home Coming Shoot
I often get to photograph young families. From newly married brides and grooms transitioning into first time parents, we celebrate milestones together. But I must say, it is also very heart warming to see children come home and catch up with their parents. With numerous opportunities opening up all across the globe, sometimes, having a complete family photo becomes close to impossible. Yet, there are those, who are able to make it work! Like the Bendicion Family. With the news that one of the siblings was coming home to the Philippines, they opted to take time out of their own schedules to be, with each other. Now united under one…

Coming Home to Inay | Portraits at Manila Orchidarium
I’ve been photographing lots of young families lately, and have been assisting them on preserving their moments through print. While checking out my hard drive, I stumbled upon an old photoshoot that I felt was still relevant to share. Shooting weddings, portraits, and birthday parties, has really helped to grow my heart for families ( clients, and even my own as well).  Can you Imagine how big your family may be around 25-30 years from today? Have you ever though that you may have actually given birth to the best of your friends? In truth, this really is, a Post Mother’s Day blog entry dedicated to moms of all seasons…

Red Royalty | Chris and May’s 40th Wedding Anniversary
Together with their children, friends and loved ones, Chris and May opened the New Year by celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary. Their daughter Denise (Tokyo Posh) arranged the event along with her siblings and the magical touch of Event Stylist Dave Sandoval. A lovely and royal red dinner party came to life as the sun set over at One McKinley Place. Even though the kids are all grown up now and starting their own families, they still look like one big barkada. Short but sweet speeches were given to honor how much they looked up to how their parents kept their relationship strong. On that night, the heart of the…
