Let's call it Bohemian

When my friend Angie told me she wants to have a bohemian shoot I gave her a YES! I love bohemian concept it ensembles a beauty not everyone can appreciate because of it's uniqueness in nature. Curious as always I researched about "bohemian" and its origin and I found out that bohemian is someone who lives an alternative lifestyle usually creative and have an extremely different tastes in music, literature and fashion, It started in the 19th century in France when they believed that they have to stop living the conventional way and to start wearing and showing to the people who they are through the clothes they wear and the music they play. It was called the Bohemian movement although that movement ended however they left a large influence in the genre of music and fashion.

This photoshoot was made possible with the help of my friends in Accenture and my friend in YFC

Thanks Claire, Jesil, Riza, Mitch (Angie's cousin) and Nica (my friend in YFC) and also to my friend Aby for coming with me =)

Thanks to Angie for the make-up, Style Avenue for the outfits used and cheers to the other photographers who were with me in this shoot.

GENUINE HAPPINESS

We all want to be happy, contented and loved. This worldly things sometimes mislead me to my quest in life and that's to find my happiness. I decided months ago to stop blogging for it eats a lot of my time and I lack inspiration to do it.  Tonight as I open my blog after almost 3 months of being invisible to the blogosphere world, I anticipated that there will less to none at all viewers since the blog is already outdated however the total views counts surprised me, It still reaches thousands of viewers a month. Now I'm back and I'm working on my header, maybe getting a personal domain? hehe.. This has been a plan still last year but up to now it's still not discussed, and lastly more time reading, listening and learning with what I really love - Photography I missed capturing innocent children, perfect landscapes, super in love couples, and my favorite perfect candid shots. I have dreams and that's to travel more, save more, work hard and find genuine happiness.

I'm gonna miss my lola (grand mother) She pampered me well, she cooked for me and she is simply heaven sent. Rest in peace lola

Be Happy and if still you're not happy then go search for it somewhere.

Adobe Photoshop CS6

Last Saturday my friends went to Lilo-an Cebu for a shoot. To edit or in photography's term "post process" is part of every photographer's daily routine every after shoot. I used to edit using Lightroom 4 but then I let my friend installed CS6 to the laptop so now I'm having a hard time editing since I don't know how to use the CS6. I spent my Saturday night and whole Sunday watching tutorials on Youtube, even as I blog right now a youtube tab is playing another tutorial. Damn this is hard and its really testing my patience.

The reason why I was looking for another editor is that I don't appreciate how Lightroom 4 removes blemishes. Unlike CS6 that it is so easy.. but then there are just so many buttons, not so friendly applications in CS6 that I still have to learn via youtube tutorials. So far so good but so tiring hehe =)

Story behind the shoot, I named it "Wish for Autumn" hehehe..

I love autumn but then I live in a 2 season country so I could only wish for it. That's why I named that shoot that way =)

Mary Janeene is sister of my good friend Angie, she works in a bank and runs an online accessories shop. Good thing she said yes to be our model. The whole experience was an adventure and a great escapade.
