Happy 2021!

For some, 2020 was a big blur that began in March and zipped right unto the Christmas season. For most of us, it was a very inconvenient truth that we all had to swallow with businesses closing left and right, working and shooting from home and strict adherence to lockdown rules and curfews among so many other disappointments.

Union Bank Online Content

We've been getting a lot of online content projects as of late and our clients prioritize their presence in social media. We've also felt a demand for a look that is more organic and less polished increasing relatability of viewers to posts.

Grateful

And just like that, 10 years have gone by - a thrilling ride to say the least. It may not be the most prestigious award but it sure feels that way and to me, a timely and fitting way to mark a decade in the industry. Thank you to my friend, Maan D'Asis Pamaran who invited me to contribute and to landscape photographer extraordinaire for giving her the lead. ;-P Interestingly, I've worked with Maan only once and eons ago on a lifestyle article I already forgot about. I've since been an avid follower of her humorous and enlightening Facebook…

GMA Netwrork: Amazing Earth

Shooting outdoors can be quite a rewarding thrill - if you prepare that is! Whether it's just a park a few blocks away from your home or an exotic destination overseas, you can spare yourself from a lot of headache and stress if you can find out about the weather of your destination way beforehand. Having this kind of information will prepare for the necessary protection from the elements you must have not just for yourself but for the kind of gear you'll be needing and protecting as well. And whenever possible, do an ocular before the actual shoot and…
