Playing with low light and slow shutter

The ambient light inside the hall was okay as we were able to bounce our lights off the white walls and ceiling. However, it was totally different outside since we cannot bounce anymore. Direct flash is too harsh but it seemed like it was the only way to shoot. We relied heavily on our flashes and pumped up the ISO to capture images. Good thing we found an available light outside so we get to play with it a bit. 

The results of that can be seen here.

Patricia Pacheco's 18th Bday

Patricia Pacheco's 18th Birthday

Patricia celebrated her 18th birthday last February 13, 2010. It was a big celebration. It wasn't like a traditional debut. There was no coutillon and the familiar waltz tune wasn't played. But there were dance performances from the celebrant and her friends.

Prinz Heinrich Go Christening

In my opinion, catholic christening is one of the fastest  ceremony an event photographer gets to cover. Although christening has fewer highlights compared to a wedding ceremony,  photographers still needs to be on their toes to capture every moment as it happens. This was the case when we were commissioned to cover a milestone in the life of Prinz Heinrich. 

Geronimo Family Photoshoot.

The picture above is a portrait of the Geronimo family last January 23rd. Their mom celebrated her birthday and we were asked if we can have a photoshoot on their location.

Frank and Chie Barrameda Wedding

What a way to start the year 2010. While everyone else sleeps soundly on the night after new years eve, we were up making preparations for our first wedding coverage. We've all had prior experience in wedding photography but not as a team. It was the first time the three of us worked together as a group. The dynamics went really well. Each individual was able to capture beautiful images of every moment.
