Cassy and Von-Von's

The day after A380, I had a photoshoot. It's Cassy and Von-Von's 1-yr-old and 2-yr-old birthday (respectively) celebration. Big thanks to their proud parents for trusting my skills. Actually, we were two photographers so the same credit goes to my partner Abel. Ate Josie has always been a good friend. The birthday party was a blast! Everybody enjoyed the event. And the food? Three big cakes from Goldilucks, Jollibee, and another one which I'm not sure of, two lechons (plenty for everybody in the house), and four super luscious menus placed on big chafing dishes. Not to mention good mushroom soup and desserts. Sorry, I got carried away with food. I just enjoyed them (after the event that is). ;-)

It feels good to shoot again. My hands got tired again with bringing my camera. I'll be upgrading some gears soon and there's no doubt my camera will be MUCH heavier then. Good for the muscles. ;-)

Here are snaps from the event... :)





So when's the next photoshoot? I don't know. :-D

A380

After weeks of "stand-by" mode, I was able to get a hand on my camera again. This time, to capture a huge visitor. It's Airbus' biggest commercial plane A380 or what they call Super Jumbo Jet. From the name itself, it's bigger than the Jumbo Jet (Boeing 747) and it's no joke indeed. It's completing a certification flight and I was very excited to see it. As of today, Airbus already delivered its first A380 to Singapore Airlines and it's scheduled to have its first commercial flight on October 25, 2007. It's fully-booked already even before the hand-over. :)

Here are some snaps of the humongous aircraft I took at Diosdado Macapagal Airport, Clarkfield:











The last two pics are my favorite. :)

It's my first time to shoot an airliner. I learned you can make a plane look small or look big through your photos. It's in the manner of handling and positioning the camera. Both wide and telephoto lenses applies. I can't wait for more airliner photo-ops. :)

Zzzz...

No new posts. I know this is really starting to be boring. :-D I haven't been shooting lately. I think it's already two weeks since I really had a photoshoot. Been very busy with advertising jobs (prints) on the side and my day job is consuming 12 hours of my time (wake-up at 4AM, I arrive home 4PM). Photography is what I love doing more. In this regard, I'll quit my day job soon and start shooting instead! :-D I know it's not that easy and it took me a lot of time to prepare. Now is the time. Now if anyone of you knows how to write a resignation letter, help me to create one. :-D It's time to shoot more... and post more! :)

Reflection

This is a nice photo to share. It's a reflection of a Barasoain Church replica at Nayong Pilipino Clark. I love the effect I did in this photo. It looks like a castle at dawn. The other interesting thing here is how I shoot it. Just go figure it out. :)
