pinch me, is this real?

before mama got in the picture.. I was doing some self portrait shots! I have been wanting to do those sillhouete-like photos but it didn’t turn out as planned.. instead, I came up with this!

A friend once asked me why do my face change in photos? does it? I really don't know why exactly but I came to think.. maybe because of the hair? I change them every now and then.. and I always play with my hair, you may not notice it because I do have tricks LOL kidding! or maybe it's because of the "photo concepts"... you see, I make it to a point that when I do take pictures, even self portraits, I always follow a certain theme and effect.. I always wanna achieve a certain mood to a photo set that's why organizing a shoot isn't that much easy because you have to fit all the team up! 

And maybe because I take shots.. well, not just because I need or have to have a new profile photo in FB sheeesh but to try out a concept and how I post process it in photoshop!

The photo above, I did put it first in the set because I myself can tell that I look different! haha I look like when I was in kindergarten (I looked for a photo that time wherein I look exactly like this!)
here you go! hahahaha

 Well, maybe the point is that I don't want same old photos again and again and again.. I want to present  a variety of concepts but still providing consistency in all photos, now that's the challenge!
 so here are the photos!!! been loving flower crowns lately! haahah :)



So there, I have been wanting to do pre-nups and weddings.. pre debuts too! Even want to help really with conceptualizing pre-nups and pre debuts.. Luckily I will have my first cover on a wedding at the end of the month and soon will have a pre-debut shoot! :) (been thanking God for the blessings)

Nothing in the world that I love, but to shoot.. I know it is kinda the "in thing" right now.. but if people get to fall out of love with photography, I'd still be in love with it. I even wanna marry it but just like relationships, I am still in the process of  deciding if me and photography are exclusively meant for each other! And by "exclusively", means making it as my ultimate profession... because I have been away for so long with my first love which is interior design.. Yes! I am torn between two lovers as of now..

 but oh well, that's for me to figure out!
Have a great day ahead! :*
