How to Make a Halloween Party at Home
Many families find it really tricky to keep things colorful and exciting for kids at home especially for halloween. During the pre-pandemic years we would probably have events for kids roaming around in malls, and in their villages and subdivisions – while they wear costumes – these days it is still recommended to stay at home. I remembered a house party which I got to attend and shoot in Singapore some years back, which up to this date still brings me loads of fun and good memories. What’s so cool about this party is, it’s a birthday celebration for a little girl named Ashley, who was turning three at that…

Chapters at Home with Bea | DIY Celebration
As God’s blessings continue to pour out in the lives of families inside a pandemic, one way to remain grateful is to accept the situation, trust that God has a plan, and continue to live a grateful life. For Irvin and Tina who have been blessed with three children putting God first is really a non-negotiable. We celebrated their daughter’s baptism at the Presentation of the Child Jesus Parish Church, followed by lunch at home with their family members who couldn’t attend the ceremony. A “Baptizoom” link was also provided for the friends who wanted to celebrate this milestone with Team Domingo. This event is made extra special because of…

Bea’s Baptism | Presentation of the Child Jesus Parish Church
God is truly a way maker and He doesn’t hesitate showering His children with blessings. He is faithful and His love does endure forever. The presentation in the temple is… the 4th JOYFUL mystery, in the rosary. And whenever I encounter this mystery, I feel like work is not just work, but a participation in the life of Jesus, specifically — the Child Jesus. These days, family events and celebrations may seem smaller than what used to be small. And baptisms are not spared from this “simplification”. But then again, we are all reminded that, when it comes to connecting with our Father God, the only essential is… time. Meet…

Getting to Know Julie
These days, I feel I miss flying. But, dwelling on such does not really make things better…flying in good memories does! By now, my niece Julie is six. We met in Singapore when she was less than a year old, and then, time flew! It’s a good thing we spent time together, to collect evidence about how the Lord loves her. Now we’ve actually got something to cherish and look back at. Lovely parents, Leo and Wanying with Julie. Met my cousin Leo on my Grand parent’s Golden Wedding, Anniversary… when I was six! We were rehearsing to a cousin-group performance of “Getting to Know You” from the movie, “The…

Family Portraits with PJ, AI and Ava
I’ve been looking at some of my hard drives lately, and while I’ve pressed the “pause” button for quite a number of kids, (my nephews and nieces included), it is also a blessing to see them grow. I have also been taking life cues from the plants I have been caring for (thus, the layout with leaves) — hehehe. And what I’ve learnt is that, it’s always a joy to see beginnings and and celebrating life as it blooms. A family of three may be a tiny unit, but if you treat every person you meet as somebody’s dream realized, creating moments for them then becomes a deeper experience. They…

Olivia’s Portraits as a Flower Girl | Chapters at Home
Hello! It’s me! 🙂 I’ve been doing my photo series “Chapters at Home” for about six months now, and so far the journey has been life giving. Why? Because through these sessions, we get to spend time together with clients, who inspite of the pandemic, are letting hope rule in their heart, by constantly looking for ways to count blessings. Through these portrait sessions, I always am reminded of the verse “Perfect Love casts out fear.” Olivia is now a year older, from the first time we met, at her baptism. I got to meet her, in a new role (chapter), that this year has offered her — as a…

Moments with the Laycos | Chapters at Home
Counting blessings comes in many forms. But, I believe that when you make your blessings count, and you share them they eventually multiply. Last November, our super cute and energetic little lady, ATARA, turned three and she greeted her new year with a princes Jasmine themed photo shoot! Little did she know that she will be really jumping into a whole new world :).We just got news that the family found out over the Holidays that she’s going to be an ATE (big sister) soon! 😉 Congrats again on your new Chapter & may more and more blessings chase after you! 😉

Team Reyes 2020 | Family Portraits
More than a year ago, Team Reyes celebrated the Baptism of Talia at Sanctuario de San Antonio. It was the first time that our paths crossed and I guess we opened a new chapter together. Before the New Year opened, their family once again decided to pause for a shoot, celebrating a new wave of blessings that came their way. It’s so inspiring to hear their stories about adjusting to 2020, how they’ve become closer as a family taking new roles in a WFH setup and at the same time, growing a family of four. Being busy bodies, you’d really appreciate their drive, their discipline and their commitment to their…
