The Burger is OUT! | Francis & Bea’s Baby Shower Story | Stacy’s BGC
A few weeks back we had a surprise party for Bea, which was all planned by her funny husband, Francis. But as of this writing their Baby, “Burger” had already said hello to the world, yesterday! Hehe cute. I believe she’s made the world a better place already, just by making Bea a mother and Francis, a Father. 🙂 Can you believe it? Next year, they will be greeting each other already “Happy Mother’s Day ” and “Happy Father’s Day!” Kidding aside, this couple is notorious for having tons of laugh out loud moments. It’s really part of their character to pop out jokes and funny musings that people just…

High Tea Party with Cara | A Bridal Shower Story | Jackson Park, San Juan
I have always believed that special occasions are made even more memorable when you are able to celebrate it with your loved ones. I have been on the preparation side of bridal showers myself before, with my high school kabarkadas and yes... It’s always a riot! While I was shooting, I remembered too how it feels to string together a small, private / intimate / secret party with just one goal in mind: having a good time with the bride! Plus loads of laughter of course. It feels very nice to make someone important to you, feel special don’t you think? And together with Cara’s lady loved ones, this is exactly what we…

Fruits and Roots | Bendicion Family Home Coming Shoot
I often get to photograph young families. From newly married brides and grooms transitioning into first time parents, we celebrate milestones together. But I must say, it is also very heart warming to see children come home and catch up with their parents. With numerous opportunities opening up all across the globe, sometimes, having a complete family photo becomes close to impossible. Yet, there are those, who are able to make it work! Like the Bendicion Family. With the news that one of the siblings was coming home to the Philippines, they opted to take time out of their own schedules to be, with each other. Now united under one…

Dale’s Cupcake Party | Vanilla Cupcake, Alabang Town Center
Let the children play! That was, what was playing in my mind while I was at Dale’s birthday party. His parents advised us that there really was no formal program, just play time with the kids. Which turned out to be a really awesome decision since we got loads of candid moments! Dale wanted to decorate cupcakes for his birthday, so to share this activity with his classmates and friends, they got Vanilla cupcake as a venue. A few years back, I was wishing a client of mine would particularly consider this venue since I myself am a fan of the restaurant! The kids were guided by the Vanilla Cupcake…

Caitlin’s Unicorn Party | Kidzoona UP Town Center Katipunan
Woohoo! A Unicorn Party! I have featured parties held at Kidzoona a couple of times in this blog. And I still love shooting there. Caitlin has turned seven and what I notice about seven year-old’s parties, is that there has to be some form of play time, or physical activity instead of the kids just watching a magic show or something. They like being part of the experience instead of just being bystanders. I like keeping shoots short and quick whenever I can, so that I don’t take too much time from our client’s program. But I must say… our celebrant Caitlin really loves being in front of the camera…

Dencio Drives to One! | Planas Pantry
“I’m number One!” Meet Dencio, he’s my nephew. 🙂 He just turned one and together with our loved ones, we mounted a DIY Ferrari Party to celebrate his first year on earth! I’m very blessed to have been gifted with crafty, and resourceful sisters-in-law, Donna + Lala. They are the dynamic duo behind the styling of this DIY Party! We enjoy having shoots together because it becomes a time for us to bond, make new memories…and honestly…to laugh a bit more than we already do #bungisngiscrew. We had a pre-birthday shoot, where they sourced and made the props on their own, while I took care of the photography. I would…
