Field Notes | Tulogan sa Lasang

Tulogan sa Lasang, which can be interpreted “House in the Forest”. I just want to share this set to show how calming this place is. This is a house or a sleeping quarters in the middle of the forest. They built this so they could, of course, rest and they could be near with their crops. This house could also be used for students who wants to explore the forest and have an educational tour, or hikers or tourists could utilize this, too. However, it is important to ask permission from the tribe to have a smooth flow.

New Norm… (?)

Pista ni San Juan

Pista ni San Juan or the Feast of Saint John the Baptist happens every 24th of June. Traditionally in our country, we celebrate it with water. It can be throwing water to people or cars passing by, having a water rave party, or as simple as going for a dip on a nearby beach. In this case, we celebrated it on a trip to a beautiful nature reserve, together with the birthday celebrant, let’s call her Ellaine Yuan.

BEACH!

I have always been a fan of the beach. Seeing the clear blue sky, listening to the calm waves, feeling the warm breeze, and touching the cold, soothing water. Definitely vitamin-sea.

Flores de Mayo

Lately, I have been under pressure because I will have my first wedding shoot in a few weeks. I am under pressure because my professional experience are solely on same day edit, during weddings, debuts and other special occasions.

GRAD BALL: A night to remember

Seeing your classmates, friends and teachers glammed up was definitely a night to remember.

Unravel

I have been a photography hobbyist since high school/junior high. I only used a Sony point-and-shoot camera, unfortunately, I forgot the model name. It was a great camera though. I had a motto before that the camera or the equipment doesn’t matter but what you’re trying to say or show matters.

UBEC I.X-XIV.MMXVIII

We’ve been dreaming of going back to the Queen City of the South, Cebu City. It’s been years since my sister visited the city, at least 5-10 years. Well for me, I visited the city few months before but it was just for a very short period. It was really refreshing.

MMXVIII

Bienvenue! C’est une autre année à perdre!

Hehe … kidding aside, my 2017 was full of … “adulting”. There are a lot of times that I needed to be mature act as a real adult. It was quite an experience for me. But honestly, I couldn’t remember most of what happened that year. All I just remember were the feelings that I had that time. But nonetheless, I feel blessed that I made it through that year alive and complete, together with my loved ones.
