Instagram Addict

Is it just me? or people are getting hooked up with #instagram already?!?!

Well I am one of the many people who are getting addicted to instagram! aside from the very easy access to  quick snaps, it gives you a lot of filter choices too!

 NO PHOTOSHOP NEEDED! HA!

(though I get most of my photos taken by dslr)

It is very FUN, addictive, simple and lesser hassle compared to facebook's timeline! hehe :)

some snaps of my instagram space!

Aside from it's easy access, I always love seeing people who has unique and consistent photos.. They always inspire me how to be consistent with my photos and of course, their creativity and uniqueness!.. 

I suppose to snap a shot of their instagram space but will just do it in a different post.. for some reason .. hehe

A Night With My Baby

A night with my baby boo

 

At last!!! I managed to rearrange my room for such a looong time already!!! Though I am still in the process of completing the entire plan! I have also arranged it in a way that I can do nice shoots too! I mean, I want every corner of it to be "shootable". Last night after everything was "quite" arranged and clean already.. I can't help myself but do some make up 101 hehe (I admit I'm kind of having fun with make ups!) and of course, the session wouldn't be complete without taking some snaps with my playmate, my baby cammie (camera)! 

Vain shots! Oh yessuuuur!!! XD

Believe it or not, these images are just my reflection from the mirror. It is much easier to take shots in front of the mirror right? 

So just like what others usually do, you point directly the camera in front of the mirror, do some vain shots and voila! you have a new profile photo! hahahaha kidding (but quite true though) 

So anyway, here's a part of what I did in my room.. I had this disco ball not that long time ago and finally have used it as a chandelier. I just need some more series lights and I'm good to go. For the series lights, I used a steady warm white light. 

Will post more after I'm finish with everything!!! :)

Dyed my hair PINK!

Is it just me? or blogger didn't de-saturate the photos? hmmm..

OLA!!! Just this morning, I realized that it is already April 1,2012 - and yes! It's APRIL FOOL's DAY! 

So I thought of doing some shots with the cute things I bought the other day. I bought a pink wig and some accessories (flowers and a key chain). I have been obsessed with wigs lately, I thought I could use them as  props with personal shoots but never had the chance to have one yet though I already have plans.. Well, maybe this is a good start though.. A great start for this month!

I looked like a drag queen! Oh well.. hahaha

 

Didn't dye my hair though (April Fool!) hahaha :D

I didn't use any tripod since I lost it :((( but still have managed to do some self portraits! Vanity! :)

HONEY BEE part II : some sweet treats!

YES!!! They are so hard to resist yet so heartbreaking to eat - can I just preserve their cuteness? haha good thing there are DSLRs already.. we can always save the memories through images and as we grow old, we can always picture out the best things we once had... Happy memories!

HONEY BEE PART II : some sweet treats!

It was Aj's day! finally! haha.. So I thought of giving Aj a dozen of customized cupcakes from Samantha Colinares'. 12 things that we shared or I remember of him.. I really do want it to be special because he deserves every ounce of my love and effort (okay, too mushy!)   

Since Sam wasn't able to buy a box, I volunteered to just go to the shop and buy a box but I failed! ahahaha I didn't get what Sam exactly told me to buy but oh well, I still have discovered a paradise (the shop where i bought the box) shhhhh...

So the plan really was to go to Aj's place at exactly 12 mid night and surprise him, unfortunately, I got surprised first! hahaha While taking photos of the irresistible cute cupcakes, he suddenly pops out.. out of nowhere! -kidding hehe.. he wondered what I am busy off taking photos, I just smiled and he's like staring at the cupcakes and trying to sink in the idea that that was supposed to be a surprise for him haha He then smiled and gave me a huge grin! lol I still can remember his face..

Anyway, my previous post is about engagement thing.. me and Aj had this photos with a mustache, huge lip and huge heart.. I still did incorporate the idea to the cupcakes..

 at the left photo are the props I purposely made and on it's right are the cupcakes!!! cute! :)

 I also made fun on shooting it.. placing LED lights (warm white lights) so that it won't be plain white and adds some sort of like a depth of field thing hehehe

 depth of field, okay.. zzzz

Funny how my classmates reacted to the "gwapo" text on the cupcake hahaha

 I ate the heart!!! -just saying!!!

 I didn't expect that Sam would really mimic a camera's form!!! 

I didn't really expect that the cupcakes were huge and this cute!!! Thank you so much Samantha Colinares! 

Sometimes, thoughts like these are so much more special than material things.. I don't know about you but somehow this idea seems unique and special because you put your own thing to the cupcakes - and that makes this cupcakes BEST for special gifts for very special people.. because just like the people you care about, these cupcakes are no ordinary!

 I bought Aj party candles but uuuh, look how much fire it produced! LOOL!

 during the day, Aj treated me, Tiara and Shena to a lunch! Lunch date for four!!!!

 Little did we know, it is also shena's birthday the day after aj's

 LUNCH DATE AT DONG JUAN!

Tiara took these 2 food shots! :) hmmmm...

So there.. It always feels great whenever you are with your good friends and love ones :) So treasure every moment and savor every special occasions you'll have. 

HONEY BEE part I

So I have been thinking of doing engagement shoots. 

BUT WITH A HUGE TWIST!

Aren't you tired of the same old engagement shoots?

Engagements are the best time to have a lot of fun together with your lovies before you hit your "I DO's!" And it is much better if you can reminisce the happy times and moments to a very unforgettable experience you had during your engagement! So I thought, why not do an engagement where in you two wanted to do something that you never actually did! Or something themed and unusual or something that you two love doing together - just that, we do it with a huge twist!

But first, I did a video for AJ.. (it is actually my gift for him). While I was browsing and researching about engagement shoots, I have come to stumble on a video with a very nice song in it, I got thrilled and excited because an idea just popped out of my mind! So then I purposely made a huge heart, a mustache and a huge lips for props! And without Aj knowing my plan, I encouraged him to do some random shoots with me using the props.. though he's still sleeping, he got up and heartily (hope so) took some shots with me. hahaha

So here's the video I made..

so there.. hahha and though I don't have any portfolios for unique e-shoots yet, well, I have been planning a lot about that! and as of now, here are our photos! :) 

ENJOY and let's spread the LOVE..
