A Study ON SKIN

Model: Sarah Polverini
Make up and hairstyle: Kate Aguilar
Wardrobe: Aris Trinidad
Location: Graphic Republic Photography StudioUnit 1809 Cityland Herrera, 98 Rufino Cor. Valero St., Salcedo Village, Makati City, Philippines
Photographer: Darrel Pobre of Dconstruct

I never knew that this model had it big before until I googled her name and found out in IMDB that she was once a cast of SARAH Ang Munting Princesa. Hehehe. But damn can she command attention and demand presence.

If one has the ego of a hermit crab, damn, you would feel the instinctive gravitational pull to genuflect.

This shot was a study of Post Processing for skin.

Featured Artist: Something to be EPAL About

Affirmations, no matter how small, are like like funny flashbacks. They take you to your happy place and no one else can share that secret, ego-boosting victory that gives a little skip in your walking-your-way-to-work-on-IPOD-mode mood.

PUSH AND PULL

Yes, there are a lot of things photographers must do to stretch a concept. In this case a broken thumb and a static lamp post.

This was a model portfolio shoot with HENRY NILLOS.

I remember this day un-fondly because I literally broke my thumb while balancing for an angle. The crisp snapping sound of the torn ligament reverberated the pain through a span of two weeks, leaving part of my palm pooling in blood internally.

Yes, I do belive that with passion comes haematoma.

Extending SHELF Life
Holidays on Ice: The only book that I find funny among the Sedaris' series. Actually only the first story of that title. The rest are weak witty retorts and a weird obsession of mundanely deconstructing the lack of tack and class of his suburbish family. (bought this at a store in Waltermart for 99 pesos, I love that store)

THE Big Book Of Typographics: Ears are bleeding with inspiration. Bought it at Waltermart as well for 499, powerbook price would be 2,600++. That store is on my must-visit-daily list.

Harry Potter 7: JK Rowling is a literay goddess, and that's coming from someone who is hard to please. READ IT.

FOOD SHOOT: Tempura-Ture Rising

I was kind enough to have this shot taken right after I fried them. My brother was salivating to dehydration, and didn't want him to drown in a pool of his own drool. He was longingly lookig at the mini set I did. Took like a dozen shots then fed him finally freeing him from his gastric prison cell.

I can be so nice.

It was my first time to cook tempura, googled it at ABOUT.COM nyahahaha. Another level in

Cooking,though essentially its just deep frying. Miltestone, nyahaha

Slow Shutter Speed
This is what happens when you are left all alone with no live subjects more complex than cockcroaches than yourself. Hooked up my Canon baby for remote shooting with my PC and set the shutter sheet to a couple of seconds. Played with light.

I LOVE LIGHT.

Estudyante Blues


It is hard.

To finally do the things you want and re-positioning yourself, nothwithstanding the demands of the status quo, but yes. I have finally come into terms with the whole Money vs. Passion issue with the thought that I'd rather die dirt poor and happy than extremely rich and miserable. hehehe. This is with a notion that somehow, this whole photo thoia-thoing will strike its own gold mine. (nyahaha)

I thought that I'd end up being just a graphic artist, but heck taking a photo the right way just sets me into an entirely new level.

I am excited as hell. Most of my sleeps are pre-empted with thoughts of composition, lighting and the relentless dream of adding more to my camera gear. Those who know me fully well that this is what I really want and I am perpetually thankful for the support and the belief.

I love you guys.

* Started my classes with Mr. Jo Avila, who smart wit and quick tongue and almost two decades in the industry definitely makes one break into the business with a better grasp of the whole thing. From color management to best practices. Can't wait for the next class.

Answering to the Latin Itch


It's a beckoning of nature.
The time where birds flock to south to escape the cold harsh winds of winter.
Where salmons swim against river currents and waterfalls to lay eggs on higher earth.
The return to our mother ship.
First stop, Cafe Havana Malate. Where the latin sights and sounds were enough to kick in some taptapping to our eager shoes. Mike, Xsy and I got some drinks to fire up the night ahead. After scorching the floor with some Salsa with Xsy, who, after a few sips, definitely needed this night like I do, we headed to Mike's Friend Jersh to drink some more.
Next Stop, Fiama, where we met with Deux and her friends, drank some more, Chitchatted, posed for some papparazzi shots, did a critical observation of the ecosystem then head to Havana Greenbelt to graze more on the dance floor. Bumped into some common friends at Masas. Then head up over Xsy's condo.
It is nights like this that make you say that you are alive. Funny thing, there were a lot of Pumbas and Timons grazing the party places as well. Hehehhehe.
ps. Xsy, your feet looks fabulous. Blog-worthy for posting. Drool and weep ginger feet people. Nyahaha.

CHINESE NEW YEAR
Chinese New Year was met at the bay of Manila at Dampa, setting the rest of our chinese calendar to a year of pigging out and doing something fishy.
