If you could just let us BREATHE

So just give me one good reason
Tell me why should I stay
Cause I don't wanna waste another moment
In saying things that we never meant to say


And I take it just a little bit
And I hold my breath and count to ten
and I've been waiting for a chance to let you in


If I just breathe 
let it fill the space between
you'll see everything will be alright
breathe
every little piece of me you'll see everything will be alright


If you could just let us breathe...

is it just me? or the photos uploaded in any blog sites are just crappy??? well anyway, just follow this LINK to see a better quality of it. :)

I am supposedly in bed right now with my mama because she's sleeping in for the night but it seems like I can't breathe.. I got bothered with the things we talked about over dinner. All I want is her to be happy.. She's a very good person but why can't she be given a chance to be happy and be herself? :(

If only we could wake up in the morning, spending time cooking breakfast and chit chat 

If only I can see her genuine laugh and smile again

If only I can give that genuine smile and laugh to her

If only I can take all those hurt within her..

I WILL.

If we could just BREATHE.

I guess I should post more of my conceptual photos here. hmmm... 

I have moved out from our house and currently living on my own.. and I'm scared. I'm not scared of ghosts, the fact that I am just living with myself nor frightened of not being in our own home. I'm scared.. scared of this new environment I am in right now. How I wish there'll be someone I can live with here. I don't wanna sleep the whole night (oh wait, do I really sleep? haha)

I actually have no idea why photos uploaded in any blog sites are in CRAPPY QUALITY! tsk!

It has been so long since I last posted something conceptual. I have been busy conceptualizing something about business and stuffs.. YES! I have to earn money.. to live.. haha seriously, I need to earn money to live independently and also for me to learn living without my "parentals". And still, I am still busy meeting up with clients and deadlines LOL now this serves as my photo break! bye!!! :)

I kept on thinking of what title I should give this set.. nothing really good popped out on my mind til I uploaded the last photo (it's a shot of marc, ginafe and hanz) and it's Boys over flower lol lol lol!

It sound ugly, I know.. but I am sure I have heard of this as a title in a local tv series or as what we call it "teleserye" it sound really funny haha.. and.. ridiculous!

An engagement shoot I did for my tita and tito Hiro :)

So we flew to Manila to just have fun and to do their engagement shoot too.

As all you know, I have been wanting to do conceptual engagement shoots, something that the couple reflects their personality or even their personal interests that they share.

So my tita did some shopping, she bought a yukata which Japanese call their garment and for tito Hiro, a barong tagalog! Now you know how fun it is to be with them! and yes! tito Hiro's nationality is Japanese but have been in the Philippines for more or less than 25 years so he's fairly good in speaking in Filipino and Bisaya. He was our tour guide in Manila, it's a shame for us right? A japanese national is touring us pure Filipinos in manila! lol! haha

So anyway, this is just a very simple shoot but with full of LOVE and FUN! and that's what makes it special. A very special memory that is captured through photos. A memory that will always be treasured in our hearts and through a hard copy (printed photos) hahaha :)

So here are the photos! :)

Okay, I'm so sorry for the photo but uuh.. isn't this hilarious???? Cute little baby, I wonder what HE is thinking looking at his uuuh... hahha caught in the act baby! :)

So yeah, that's everything and OH! we stayed and had our shoot at Makati Palace Hotel :) such a nice place too!.. 

My first engagement shoot.. and just what I wanted, an engagement shoot WITH A TWIST! so if you have the weirdest idea for your engagement shoots feel free to contact me at:
