Please grab a copy of Zee Lifestyle's July Issue. I shot the men's fashion editorial and two of the Men's Club features.  :)

There's not much to blog about except that I am feeling a bit under the weather today and it looks like this migraine is not going to leave me anytime soon. I am also excited to share some new photos but I can't really post them yet. ;_;

Anyway, have to get back to retouching and before I end this post, check out Bjork's new video:

Update:
Just found out that one of my work was selected as one of the Daily Inspirations on Shadowness.com.
Thank you Shadownes!

Stillness In Time

Photography and Styling: Hannah Bacalla 

Model & Makeup: Ashley

Last month I got a call from Ashley asking me if I wanted to do a shoot.

I did another personal work, just us, we moved quietly and with music in the background it was just perfect. Shooting like this is so much more peaceful.

There are a couple more from this shoot but I can't decide which ones I like better. I'll probably add more in the coming weeks. 

STATUS Magazine Photo Diary Feature

A few weeks ago my shoot 'Echoes All Around' was featured on STATUS Magazine's Photo Diary section. Please click the link to see the rest of the pictures.

Big thanks to STATUS Magazine for the feature, to Nicky Roa for the wardrobe and Alex for modeling. ♥

Another personal shoot I did a few weeks ago.
This was sort of an impromptu shoot and we did it just in time before she left for Manila.
Thank you Yan! Always a pleasure working with you. ♥

And of course, the Lookbook shot.

I didn't take much behind the scenes pictures because we were so busy talking that we almost forgot about the shoot! -_-' Haha

Hello Wednesday

These last few days I haven't been feeling good, so I've been lying in bed, reading blogs and just eating loads of ice cream and getting fatter by the minute.

I am almost done with my new personal work. It's so good to finally shoot pictures that I like after weeks of non-stop work. ♥ I still need pretty girls to shoot with and if possible prettier locations to shoot at. It seems the places that I know have already lost their magic.

I am also done with selections on my portfolio book which took me at least two months to choose the images alone. Because I'm fickle minded like that. Now to finish the last few pages and print it. 

Here is a random self-portrait because people always told me I am so elusive. Haha And I think it's always good to know who writes this blog right?

So.. Hello~!! 

Sun.Star - Bridal Lookbook + Behind The Scenes

Last month I was commissioned to do a beauty shoot for Sun.Star's Shopping Bag. For the first time, Kara(writer and stylist) and I finally met in person. The first time I contributed to her column was five years ago. Can you imagine? I suddenly feel old. Haha

I also got to work with talented makeup artists such as Jomer Arances, Aura Verallo, Ryle Young and Pearl Sarcauga of Dollface Cosmetics. Please check their website for affordable makeup products. :)
