A Totally Different Animal: Rock Bands 8

Weaving through the throngs of hardcore Sugarfree fans as they trooped to Eastwood Central Plaza to witness the band’s ‘final’ live performance was no easy feat – with dagger stares from a few idiots who didn’t seem to grasp the concept of what a “free concert” was – but shooting a rock band was really [...]

The CompanY: For the Love Of… 3

It’s been a bad week. Really. Sigh. I’m raring for another shoot, but I have no time to spare these days (and cash, for that matter) to go out. I have been blessed though, to be able to shoot a lot these past few weeks. While second to my love of landscapes, concert coverage will [...]

The 16th Philippine Hot Air Balloon Fiesta 4

Slept at 9PM, work up two hours later. Got to the site at 4AM, waited to get in until 6AM. Want to give it another go next year – hopefully it won’t be a chore getting those photographer’s passes. That is all. BOW.

The CompanY: Isang Pasasalamat 6

Again, I’d like to extend my sincerest gratitude to the guys and gals of Beginnings at Twenty Plus for the opportunity to shoot the Philippine’s premiere vocal group, The CompanY at their thanksgiving concert held last January 21. They’ve long been, in my opinion, one of the most underrated singing acts in the country, overshadowed [...]

Long Overdue: Regina + Shane 2

I’ve mentioned quite a number of times about the wedding I shot last December, and I think it’s high time I post a few images from that shoot here. A videographer friend of mine was scheduled to cover a wedding and needed a photographer to capture stills. He called me A DAY before the event. [...]

Darren Criss Live in Manila 4

I realize that I haven’t posted anything new for awhile – since the Holidays are coming up, things have gotten a bit hectic. I was initially planning to post some pictures from a wedding I covered this month, but the post processing is taking too long, so here are some captures from the recent Darren [...]

Gabriel Miguel C. Medalla – Piano Recital 4

Got the chance to play second shooter at a piano recital in UP Diliman. I love shooting details with my trusty 50mm, but if I remember correctly, I tried using my 10-22 for this shot. Played around with some coloring effects in PS, then added a faint texture: Believe it or not, this guy isn’t [...]

Kalooban, again 4

It might not be August – the time when we usually see the annual routine resurgence of interest in all things Filipino – but there’s always time to appreciate and bask in the rich culture of the Philippines. Part of that culture – and most often neglected in favor of the more popular festivals – [...]

OC at the PICC 2

It was a great pleasure shooting at the PICC last week, with premiere musical artists Ogie Alcasid and Ryan Cayabyab performing a flurry of OPM greats throughout the years. I was there from the rehearsal to the concert itself, and got to see first hand how the production for an event like this unfolded from [...]

Bebop, Bossa, At Iba Pa! 2

Finally, thanks to some prodding from VerJube, I got around to processing the pictures from Bebop, Bossa, Atbp, featuring Sitti Navarro, Aisaku Yokogawa, and Sandra Lim-Viray. ###
