Swagger Jaggers

Competing during a dance competition in the hospital was one of our highlight events last December, this however would be my last participation in the said activity, I am not really that of a good dancer (haha), so I will take credit to the group and for being so talented. Although it painstakingly took us a lot of effort to build up the group, we however have been able to put up our swagger despite the "lack of everything" including hope.

I really love our creative outfits inspired by Cher Lloyd from her music video "Swagger Jagger", well we're just resourceful in our means to put everything together. All that matters is the spirit of Christmas and teamwork. I miss these fun times, the friendship, the bonding moments and hanging out with the younger ones.

Enchanted

After a few months of not being able to do a themed shoot with my partner-in-crime Suzette Cachuela, the woman behind the transformation of our amateur models a.k.a. friends and colleagues, here we are again with our newest project done last weekend. My hands were itching so I thought I'd give our Canon 7D for a stroll. I've been loving the shots so far, and I am looking forward for to do more photo sessions in the future with my new baby (hehe).

The concept of this shoot was initiated by our self-confessed fashionista model, who really wanted to immortalize the goddess look. Although this is another first for me, I am so hyped up to do this shoot. I just so realized that my interest in portrait photography became now my serious hobby.

My favorite time of the day to shoot with natural light is during the Magic Hour, that is said to be the last sunlight for the day. A perfect time to capture enchanting photographs that in no possible way that these effect can be achieve by any other time of the day. As I said before that I am a sucker for vintage photographs, so capturing this set was something like a walk in the park. So be enchanted as Doting portrays timeless beauty in this bewitching drama.

That Rocker Chick!

When you say rocker chick, they are someone easy going, music loving, free-spirited girl yet has an edge and a tough side that hangs out with the "band", though if we wanted to possess a just the image, we can always omit the band (hehe). Girls know how to rock and express their own individuality.

Alyssa, has given a masculine twist of her sweet and feminine side for this shoot. Though the guitar carrying image reminds me a lot of Alanis Morrissette, whom we all or most of us knew rocked in the late 90's and early 2000, my epitome of a rocker chick. Young girls like Alyssa who have great dreams and aspiration will sure go a long way if they will just go for their hearts desire. Need I say more,  she has totally pulled off this set!
