Since my trip to Singapore was unexpected, I really did not have a plan to shoot engagements. But God is full of surprises and he made a way for me to shoot some dear friends. I love love shooting in here! So many places to shoot and you don’t need a permit like in Philippines. I definitely recommend and encourage my couples to have their shoot here. Here’s a preview of what’s to come…
Francis and Marie
They’re my friends in SFC and I’ll be shooting their wedding next year.
Stephen and Glyzel
Along with Joseph, they are the driving force of Purpose Driven SG.

Last week, Heidi Valencia and I were interviewed at ANC’s Shop Talk show to talk about our life as a wedding photographer. I’m still waiting to get my personal copy from Shop Talk, but my mom was able to video the interview. I just need to resize the file so I can upload the video, so watch out for that. Thanks to Google Alerts, I discovered that they also featured the interview as an online article at abs-cbnnews.com. Follow this link

I also enjoy studio photography. I like the challenge of creating and shaping light in a confined space such as a studio. Some photographers find it limiting with just working with a background and studio lights but I find it refreshing to go out of my comfort zone to really plan and think about how I light a model/subject.
As part of promoting Purpose Driven Photographer, we tied-up with Mellow 94.7 FM. Shayla, one of our Imagine Nation apprentice, also happens to be a DJ at 94.7 and she introduced us to Chloe, one of their heads. They were coming up with a new website and they needed new pictures of their DJ’s, so here’s the shoot I did. Thanks to Dianne Capili and Lai De Guzman for assisting me.

I’m about to leave for Singapore today to teach for our Purpose Driven Photographer. I’ll be teaching about Studio Lighting and Posing, two of my favorite topics. I’ll be back by Tuesday next week. There’s lots of exciting things lined-up for me to do there and I’ll be sure to share them when I get back. If you need to contact me, just shoot me an email.
Oh and by the way. We have a lot of events happening this weekend. First, we’re starting our 5th batch of Purpose Driven Photographer here in Manila this Saturday, and we have a total of 24 students, that’s a lot! Second, visit us at Eastwood City in Libis as we launch our LIFE Photography Program at Cradle Magazine’s Mommy and Baby Fair this May 8 and 9 (Saturday and Sunday). Visit our booth and check-out LIFE. Also, Cradle’s Summer issue just came out and this is my first magazine cover! Third, we’re having our Before I do Worskhop this Sunday for engaged couples.

Purpose Driven Photographer Singapore is our first international workshop. Thanks to Carlo Palma, former Imagine Nation Groom who is based in Singapore, for making this possible. We’ve already started the first session last April 17 with our mentor, John Mateos Ong, teaching Basic Photography Principles. I’ll be teaching Studio Lighting and Posing for Portraits on May 8 and I’ll be in Singapore from May 7-11 . Also, I’ll be available to shoot prenups/engaments, portraits or anything you can imagine…Just shoot me an email.

Here’s my couple, Jerome and Dotty Cu, who I submitted and got featured on Martha Stewart Weddings’ recent March issue. They can be found on page 67 under the Photo 101 : Picture Perfect article. Martha Stewart asked our studio if we wanted to submit pictures of real couples for this article a few months ago and submitted this picture below…I completely forgot about it. I did not even know that Martha used this picture but thanks to Dotty for the heads-up and congratulations! There’s just one problem, the magazine made an error and gave credit to another studio for my picture, we already brought it to their attention and hopefully they’ll be able to make the proper photo credit on the next issue.

Milton and Des was referred by Melvin and Aileen, my couple I shot last December 2009. They got married last Feb. 27, a day before we left for our Cam Sur worskhop with Manny Librodo. Des was simply stunning that day and wearing a Veluz gown made her so gorgeous. Funny thing is that she kept telling me during the start to use flash, as she believed it that it would hide her “imperfections.” However, I always believe that every bride posses a certain “glow” especially during wedding day and it was up to the photographer to unveil that unexplainable glow and Des had it. She was a natural in posing for the camera and her playful personality brought a lot of funny moments while we were shooting. Milton on the other was a cool sport and let us do our thing and be creative with our shots. The mood that day was fun and relaxed and we all had a blast shooting these two.
