Steve + Chai – Cebu City E-Session (1st Day)

Wednesday, October 13th, 2010

Lakshmi Photography’s first venture in Cebu City! We’d like to start by thanking our lovely couple Steve and Chai for the opportunity and for choosing us amongst the pool of photographers they’ve searched nationwide. It’s a great honor to be chosen by you :) We’d also like to thank my tito, Mr. Rene Araneta for accommodating us for the 3 days that we’ve been in Cebu. It’s always a delight to stay at my tito’s house for they not only serve sumptuous, mouth watering food but I also love the company and wisdom he always shares that inspires me to do better in the field of photography.

Our first day was all about fun. The team went to see Legend of the Guardians in 3D at IMAX. We were able to relax and on our second day in Cebu was our first day of shoot. It was our first time to meet Steve and Chai. There were some odd moments at first but later on we were laughing and enjoying the day.  Half day actually since we were only able to shoot in the morning till noon. After lunch, when we were on our way to our next location, it rained that we decided to skip it and head our way to the third location at Mantayupan Falls in Barili. Rain stopped, we thought we could have good shots with the magnificent falls but we were all dismayed to see  how angry the flow of the water was and at how brown its color was. On our way back, we just chose random spots to have a few shots. We were supposed to go to Mountain View to catch some night lights but the couple were already exhausted from the trip so we decided to just feed our grambling tummies and call it a  night.

More pictures of our second day will be posted soon. Were we able to shoot or did the rain prevent us from having good pictures? Find out soon! “_)

Tagum City, Davao del Norte: Photography Workshop

Saturday, September 25th, 2010

September 18-19, 2010.. We were happy to leave Tagum City knowing that our participants for the workshop were “satisfied.” A couple of  participants were given the chance to tell us their thoughts and of the experience they’ve had during the 2-day Photography Workshop. All the feedback we heard were all positive, except for one. Dr. Manuel Tesoro, one of the participants, had a very interesting point. He first said that his expectations were met and that he thought we were underpaid with all the things he learned from us about photography. His first photography workshop, he said, he didn’t learn that much. Then this time, he was only dismayed for the organizers said that we would have “hands-on” photoshoot and yet, he didn’t have the chance to even touch the model’s fingernails :) I was relieved upon hearing this because for the 2 to 3-minute talk that he had, I was holding my breath!

Thank you so much to the organizers for giving me the chance to share my knowledge and for trusting a Cagay-anon (Not really from Cagayan de Oro but my heart is now in the City of Golden Friendship) to handle their first venture in workshops at Tagum City. To the participants, I can’t thank you enough for also sharing your passion in photography. Just keep on shooting and explore more. To my wife Julie, for always supporting me in my adventures. To my assistants/lights men, Dodong and Rondel, till the next escapade! To my family and to my Baby Lakshmi, next time when you’re old enough to hold a reflector, promise, you’ll be tagging along in all our undertakings :) To God, for always blessing us, thank you Lord! “_)

Piedad Gontiñas @ 60 – Cagayan de Oro Wedding Photographer

Friday, September 10th, 2010

On the night of August 16, 2010, Piedad Gontiñas, owner of Basamanggas Resort and Restaurant, was amazed at how her lovely daughter, Maria Rita, blasted the resort to the 60′s. It was Piedad’s 60th Birthday and all day long, she had no idea what was in store for her that night. Everyone was an accomplice and each one of them did a great job at hiding “the secret.” It could have also been a party outside the restaurant but the rain kept us inside. See how she was surprised at the venue, guests and the beautiful dresses of the 60′s everyone was wearing. Enjoy! “_)
