Lost in Translation

2010-08-05T04:49:00.000+08:00

But nothing's lost. Or else: all is translation

And every bit of us is lost in it...

And in that loss a self-effacing tree,

Color of context, imperceptibly

Rustling with its angel, turns the waste

To shade and fiber, milk and memory.

Leica

Yesterday was declared General Cleaning Day by my mom, in which we were supposed to clean every nook and cranny of our rooms. I think I made it worse by taking out the garbage in my room, and just put it in another room. Yes, I was lazy like that. Take note: Was.

After a while mom found something that used to belong to her dad. To my surprise, It was a really old Leica camera! Imagine my reaction upon seeing something so beautiful! The leather, the smell of old metal. Yes, it was gorgeous. I told my mom I was going to have it cleaned and repaired. She agreed and told me to take care of it.

Thanks mom, this is a treasure! I shall use this soon!

I took photos of it, using my Nikon d90

The black and white photos were taken using my old 100mm f2.8 lens. (film lens)

The colored ones were taken using my kit lens, 18-105mm

Absolutely gorgeous! I really hope I could use this. Thank you so much mom... and grandpa.

Blessing in Disguise

2010-06-16T22:52:00.002+08:00

Yesterday was well spent, as I have done so many things, met a lot of great people, and have been opened to more opportunities. I couldn't have been more thankful to the Big Guy above for the things that has been happening to me right now.

I was invited to this photo shoot for the (Fashion by the Wedding Designers of the Philippines), FWDP by Christine L, a good photographer and a friend. We both teamed up together with Yeoh. Upon arriving at the location, it was then we knew that the photo shoot was for an ad for Wedding Essentials Magazine. Imagine the shock that I got upon hearing this! It was my dream to do photo shoots for magazines such as W.E. Anyway, we aren't allowed to post photos yet from the actual photo shoot, but here's a couple (behind the scenes).

There were a lot of photographers, each with his/her own equipment! I was kinda envious of their gadgets and thingamajigs, it looks really expensive! But regardless, I think Tin and I did awesome, with or without those gadgets.

With the pool of photographers included in the photoshoot, I don't think everyone's photos will be published. I don't mind If my photo wouldnt be chosen. I'm so thankful and lucky already to be part of this experience!

What made the day even extra fun was seeing my good pals. Make up artists Anton, Nan, and Tippy; Hair Stylist Mycke; Designer Marc R., and Rxandy, one of my respected photographers. The models were also amazing! I'm so lucky to have worked with them! They are super nice to talk to!

To those people that I've met yesterday, thank you. Till the next one! I won't forget this experience!

Hey Soul Sister

2010-06-14T18:29:00.008+08:00

There. Photos from last Saturday's photoshoot that are ready to be exported to Photoshop. (I treat them first over at Lightroom before anything else).

Saturay was so fun! The place was filled with booze and Carla's awesome pasta. Our muse, Erika G, was nothing short of fabulous! All smiles for the group! This isn't even over! We're doing another photoshoot this coming week! Crazzyyy!

Here's a preview of what's cookin' for Carlotta Manila.

(Blog title's Hey Soul Sister all because it was the song that got stuck in my head after the photoshoot! lol).

Today's Photoshoot

2010-06-11T12:49:00.002+08:00

Finally! Carla, my designer friend, has given the go signal for us to do the photoshoot for her clothing line. It's funny since it has been months since we've planned for this one. Cancel here, reschedule there. Today, it's happening. Good job Carla! Erika G's modelling for us once more! Good vibes! Regardless of my cough and colds today, I think I'll do just fine.

Give Me My TAHO, Bitch!

2010-05-25T09:11:00.003+08:00

So I'm finally done with Xernan Orticio's Press Kit for Philippine Fashion Week. I sure do hope everyone would like what I've done for the whole team. I mean, everyone gave their 110%, so why shouldn't I? They deserve the best, and the best I gave them.

I don't mind getting text messages for revisions later on though. It's a collaborative work, so It's normal to have changes along the way.

I already miss the team. I hope I could get to work with them again soon enough.

With almost 28 hours of no shuteye, I think I'm finally calling this a day.

But first, to find Manong Taho. Give me my TAHO, bitch.

Avonlea

2009-11-21T04:43:00.002+08:00

Another one of my collaborations with the fab Make-Up Artist, Dino Lazaro. He did a great job on the eyes! The model was also great! Avonlea, a young and talented model, was also delightful to work with. This day, we also did some work for Manila Bulletin. Hope our photos would get published! *crosses fingers*. Thanks everyone! :)
