I finally climbed my first mountain last weekend thanks to my friend Olga. Weeee! :D well, not exactly 'climbed' and this wasn't really my idea of how I would conquer my very first mountain since we rode a jitney all the way to the top. But, I'm not one to past this rare chance to ascend and take pictures from the summit of Mount Kabuyao in Benguet. And though there wasn't much hiking involved, I still got the chance to walk around trying to find picturesque scenes over, above and below the mountain top and bring home some souvenirs. See my souvenirs after the jump :D Read more »3

December 11, 2010 - Finally, this was the opportunity that I've been waiting for, to finally get the chance to cover a wedding together with experienced photographers, its a huge stepping stone for me towards my plan on shifting careers :D Master photographers Abel Baldemor, Fay Nicolas, and Olga Villanueva was kind enough to let me joined them on their shoot and teach me a thing or two about wedding photography. I also wanna give a shout-out to my highschool buddy, Ferdie Tinquico, for accomodating me on such short notice since the wedding was in Baguio and was scheduled on a Saturday at 9AM and call time was 5:30 AM to give enough time for preparations and photo shoots before the actual wedding. I was already in Baguio that Friday to do some work and stayed with Ferdie for the night. It's a good thing his place is just near the meeting place, no need to get lost for my first break :D and so before anything else, I would also like to thank Mr. Val Corrales and Catherine Macalino-Corrales for letting me be part of their special day and I hope these photos could do justice to their beautiful wedding :) Oh and this is just Part I (preparations) comments, advice, and criticisms are very much welcomed! :D and here we go...
