Hehe...

Hungry?



I think that's the best lechon photo I've seen so far. :-D I was in a mood of getting that one perfect shot for this lechon and it took me around six shots before I got this. I was very happy. The sad part is I was already hungry and the event I was covering hasn't started yet. I usually eat at the end of the event, or sometimes I don't eat since it's not really my job to eat. I was hired to shoot. That's the reason I have Fita stocks or KitKat in my bag. ;-) I have to be honest, being an event photographer sometimes is really hard. I was enjoying my shoot until my tummy started to "krug-krug" again while I was taking photos of the guests while getting their share of the oh-la-la lechon. Poor me! :( But gladly, I was able to get some slices before it went kaput. I was offered to rest and eat. Gap, the videographer I was with, and his assistant were also very hungry during the coverage. Yesterday was the first time I got really hungry during an event coverage. Unlike before, I simply enjoy shooting the food. :)

Enough with the lechon! Some of my friends are complaining why am I sharing very few shots everytime I write my blog. The reason is I simply can't post photos of people without their permission unless they are celebrities. Yesterday was Mr. Felix Cabais' 76th birthday. I don't know exactly how to describe him but once you see him, you'll see immediately that he's a very loving father to his family and to almost everybody. A person who is strong willed and full of wisdom. He's kuya Abel's father-in-law. The children of Mr. Cabais and their family successfully made the surprise party. Here are some stills from the occasion. :)

I agree!!! As long as we can still eat this type of food, why not???!!!???? he he he he he. Just be cautious with your diet (diet daw oh!!!). I want to tell you this and I think what their saying is true. Yesterday, while I'm listening to "Talakayan sa 95.1", one of their guest (from Sparklets) said that on his very own birthday, rather than giving himself a treat with a lot of stuffs, he took a general checkup and he treat this as a gift for himself. He went to the hospital or to his private doctor and took the general checkup. So why not try this. A very wonderful gift that we can give to ourselves is to have a general check-up once in a year at exactly on our birthday. BTW, I like the lechon. I wish I was there when you are capturing the event, he he he he.
