lakeshore

i have this friend who has a mild aversion to cameras.

worse, she has to go through another prenup shoot with a photographer she hasn’t met yet, in a public place at 3pm. first prenup shoot was a couple of months ago in the same place.

i tagged along.

good thing, the photographer was funny, the makeup artist was hilarious and the shoot went a-ok.

now if only i can say the same thing about the previous pre-nup shoot…

tambay

swung by eric and johann’s showroom today…

eric at work

johann NOT at work

it was raining so hard, i couldn’t leave until late afternoon.

instead, we attacked banapple’s banoffee and mudpie. i brought a slice of each. johann was on a diet, but who cares? i-treadmill na lang yan!

practice

ohmygoodness i feel so old.

i remember practicing my wedding photography skills (or lack thereof) a long long time ago… but that was for my older cousin’s wedding.

now, this practice session is for my friend. as in college kabarkada.

sinful. royce champagne pierre mignon.

practicing on my ring.
and NO. i’m not engaged.
thats’s MIIIINE

she had this idea of a japanese-themed wedding, and i asked her as to what degree is the japanese theme in the wedding.

i bought her some royce.

she said, “royce what?”

i almost hyperventilated.

i replied, “it’s just about THE most sinful chocolate.”

it’s smooth as silk and almost superfluous. it has champagne. or cherry marnier, if you like. it is, literally, getting drunk with chocolate. it’s packaged with its own gel ice and cooling container ’cause it softens in 5 seconds. sadly, it only comes with a one-month fridge life.

my cousin introduced royce to be 3 years ago, when she brought a box from singapore. from then on, i was hooked. i have been asking all my friends who go on business trips to japan to bring me a few boxes.

my college kabarkada is getting married in two weeks. i wonder who’s next?

obviously, it’s not going to be me.

fully booked

post-dinner tambay at fully booked in bonifacio high street…

view from the 4th

cd corner

for the past few days philip has been taking his new camera out for a few test drives… and obviously, doing a bit of research

engrossed

photo-wise, it was quite a productive weekend.

now, if only i can find time to sift through the hundreds of photos we took…

when the fog rolls in

quite a sight to behold…

fog rolling in at taal volcano. ’twas more than the usual fog i’m used to in tagaytay. i’ve been staying here quite frequently since i got sick.

something about the fresh air and cool breeze, maybe?

kanin pa lang, ulam na!

i want my pepper lunch!

salmon on rice. raw when served. come to think of it, di kita ang salmon sa pic na ito hehe you’re supposed to mix it up, cook it up in the really really hot plate. yameh.

fiery

a lot of things to be thankful for today — for one, i got to photograph another fiery sunset wheeee!

if only i can forget about the minor asthma attack a few hours ago…

*sigh*

i know it’s a bit overdue but… here’s another “fiery” shot. hehe

i love the vantage point =) (siyempre, ako pumili! biased! hehehe)

self-portrait

i forgot to post this self-portrait yesterday. he he he

i just couldn’t help it when i saw marianne’s the body shop pressed powder compact — it reflects, but not so much that i can be recognized. get my drift?

people who know me already accept the fact that i don’t like getting my picture taken… i just want to stay behind the camera. (^_^)V
