Revived

Oh, hello there. Remember me? Haha!

So yeah, after 3 months of soul searching and shit like that I'm back. Hopefully for good this time. Depends though, I've been MIA for so long I don't know how to start again.

For now I'll just post  a few photos from a photo shoot I had in CSB with my good friend Katrise Velhagen.

It was my first time to be shot using film, it was interesting. It was kinda hard for me because I have a tendency of making funny faces during shoots so I probably wasted a few clicks hahaha.

Halloween 2012

I'm not really sure what day the real Halloween is but I hope everyone have a spooky one! This is what I went as for a Halloween party I went to last Saturday. 

I was dresses as Elena Gilbert(Black pants, heeled boots and faux leather jacket) though so it was weird. Kinda changed my mind as to what I'd go as the last minute. Hahaha!

Here are a few pictures of us going crazy with the face paint. Boyfie as the joker and Gio as a green zombie. Hahaha

What did you guys go as? :)

Doll Like

A very quick and simple shoot with a friend of mine. Went over to her house last night to help her fill up her Visa application form so she can go with me to the states this October and we ended up with a Halloween/American Horror Story inspired shoot. Hahaha!

Make up and edit by yours truly

P.S. the false lashes pulled the entire look together.

Playing around with the freaky porcelain doll! Hahaha

KKK

Put together a shoot day with my neighbors/childhood friends last Saturday and here are some of the photos that came out. Excuse the ugly ugly location (my current, soon to be old, house) which we had to work with because of the constant rain that afternoon.

Will explain soon what the shoot was for. ;)

Love these girls.

Unedited!

Look at this hottie!

For some weird reason I like this photo of me. Haha!

BE WARNED. This is where my inner comedian started surfacing. Spoofing a photo, won't disclose which one! :))

Hipster!

AND HERE WE GO:

Be preppy, light and happy!

You're a tiger! RAWR!

Hipster Overload

The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers.

Had a photo shoot a while back and this was the outcome. Super love the concept and the photos itself, shot by my beautiful cousin Nicole Hermoso. :)

Edit Frenzy

Feeling a bit obsessed with vintage photo effects lately. Edited these photos I took of myself one boring and hot afternoon. Do you detect a hint of narcissism? Hahaha! Of course not, I was just thrilled at how one image turned out that I ended up taking more. Their not your conventional beauty shots, which I love. As you see some of my faces here look unnatural and disturbed, adds character to the photos. I also kinda loved how dirty the mirror was and how messy my hair was.

And now here is a little ambient music for you:

"Could I be, was I there
It felt so crystal in the air
I still want to drown whenever you leave
Please teach me gently how to breathe"

Feeling Katastrophic Tonight

Shades of Purple

Had dinner last night with the fambam and my Uncles from San Francisco. Loved the stories about cruise ships, and Europe! Found the time to put make up on so I mixed it up a bit by using shades of purple and going out of my comfort zone by pulling my hair back.

4:00pm Kisses From the Sun

A mini photo shoot was in order because of the gorgeous rays of light hitting the ground of the street of a friend's house. I find light such an amazing component of beauty, that with the lack of it, a photo can loose all its details which is most of the time the best part of a photo. It was only a 5 minute shoot but my cheeks got sun burnt. :))

These photos were taken by Joseph Brillantes
