BUM; Print, Billboard, and Online Media Styling

This one once can be seen along EDSA Guadalupe.

If it weren't for this project, I'd never really realize how blessed I am with getting ad campaigns, whether they be huge or small, print, television, billboard or online. I'm thankful to Stanley Briz and Rai Lacoste (yeap, that's really his family name) for BUM. I once again relived that time when all of my styled stuff can be seen all over the streets around the Philippines. Well, for this one, it's basically just in Manila, specifically along EDSA. Actually, not just the streets, but online and in magazines as well plus in LED screens all over SM Malls. And since we all know that stylists never really get credit on print for ad campaigns, I'm claiming these, he he.

Photography, Nio Manzano

While shooting my friend Alexandra Lapa's ootd photos in my studio, this kid (probably around 14-16) got into the frame and ogled at Alex. I motioned for him to get out of the way. He did got out of the way, but he just transferred his ogling to the door, which is also made of glass. Once Alex and I were done with the outfit I was shooting at the time, he went back to the display window and started looking at Alex again. I was actually seated near the window. I just turned my camera around, making sure he does not realize I'm taking his photo. When I looked at the photo, I got goosebumps because it looked like this. I was going to edit it but decided it's perfect as it is. I just resized it for web use.

Perhaps I should consider "real" photography. I absolutely love the eerieness of this shot. Don't you?

Shorts Story; Colors Fly

I love colors. And I love mixing and matching out of the ordinary stuff together, like what I've done in the styling in this set. And how appropriate for the cool and wet season (except maybe for the shorts... but then again...). Hope you enjoy looking at them as much as we've enjoyed shooting this session.
