Winter Snow Queen | Conceptual Portrait Session

I might have mentioned before that i was attending an openshoot this weekend....I wasn't sure yet if i would because of the back log i have in editing but it was such a great theme...one of my favorite styles of photography....a "WINTER SNOW QUEEN" theme.... So I just couldn't say no...

The event was on Saturday, June 25, 2016 and it was organized by Ms Elaine Lingad Quiapon. She had her team of makeup artist, Ms. April Geres Yap and hairstylist Ms. Riz De Leon Camangian. The shoot was in the "all famous" QC parks and wildlife where a whole lot of openshoots, prenup shoots and other kind of shoots are "usually" held. Luckily I live a hop and a skip away.

I arrived there at around 11 and the models were all getting spruced up and pretty. I was very impressed with the makeup done on all the models as well as the hair. Some of the models brought their own props like furry coats that definitely would add to the overall theme of the shoot.

It was funny how hot it was though but I had to think of snow and cold weather to get the kind of photos that I imagined for this concept...

As always, after a shoot, I do teasers for the models a day or two after...so these are my teasers...








I have to go back to editing last weeks clients before i continue on with these...lots of backlog, but I'm happy...

Planning Stage for our Conceptual High Fashion Shoot

So last weekend we had a collab with a group of photographers and we used some of my gowns from my wardrobe collection for the shoot. I also adorned some of the models with the fused glass jewelry that I created previously. I had so much fun that I decided my 3rd FASHION FLIRTY OPEN SHOOT EVENT will be one indoors. This kicked off my planning stage. I wanted this shoot to be a fully thought out, conceptual shoot with full on accessories, jewelry and wardrobe.... I met with one of my makeup artists to talk about a few ideas and today i have created a fb group that would serve as the "meeting ground" for the concept shoot team that is on private...and ill only add those participating in the event. The concept i have decided on is THE ELEMENTS OF ALCHEMY.... each model with represent an element as envisioned by the designers.... EARTH...FIRE...WIND/AIR....WATER.... AETHER.... and a sixth element METAL.... here are some of the details for the planning stage... 1......

Retouching Work

I've been kind away from this blog and actually photography in general. A lot of things have been going on but I've decided to start it all back again. I am working on a fresh new website for my portraits and in the process of setting up another one for retouching work. I've re-worked a few of my photos for the retouching websites... Original - And here is the after - I also wanted to take that branch out on the left hand side because it was quite distracting. So here it is without the branch. I also added a color enhancement on it to make the colors pop a bit more. Here is the second edit I worked on today. Original - I adjusted tones and contrast a bit. Then worked on the skin. Here is the result for that. I wanted to soften the lines under the eyes a little without completing removing it which would make it look too unnatural. Finally, i wanted his eyes to really pop. So here is the final image with an eye enhanceme...
