I’ve known Eloise more than a decade now. She’s sassy and all that. But for me she is the truest very transparent person that I know. You’ll feel it when she likes you because she makes it known. You will also know if she thinks the opposite because she won’t say a word. Somehow, I […] The post Proposal: Mich & Eloise appeared first on Shutterfairy Photography ..read more

It all started with Chloe! When she turned one, I photographed her intimate first birthday. It was held in one of my favorite cafes in Cebu, Cafe Caw. Sadly it had to close! Many years later, I still photograph the Parks. It’s either Chloe’s birthday or Harper’s. Every time I do, I know it’s a […] The post Christmas with The Parks appeared first on Shutterfairy Photography ..read more

It will be my first time to hold a Christmas photo marathon. I’ve been playing with ideas year after year, but just couldn’t find the time and courage to make it happen. Finally, this year, together with two of my closest friends – Guada of Floria Cebu and Sol Congmon of Make-up by Sol Congmon, […] The post Shutterfairy Christmas Photo Marathon appeared first on Shutterfairy Photography ..read more

It was one of those birthday shoot that was quick and worthwhile. The travel to this place in Carmen Cebu was all worth it. There’s something about long drives that allows me to weed through the thoughts  I’ve secretly kept hidden somewhere. The scenery along the way was calming. The shoot started with a quick […] The post Dea’s Intimate 18th Birthday appeared first on Shutterfairy Photography ..read more

It’s been a while! I haven’t done many family sessions lately. My focus has been on other things outside my world as a photographer. I think I grew somehow. Life has always been like that. Wherever it brings me I am there! But the subject of family has been of great interest. I’ve found a […] The post Shylo’s First Birthday Photo Session. appeared first on Shutterfairy Photography ..read more

I was nervous when we did this shoot for Dianne. I expected the studio assistant to set up the lights just like the other studio rentals. I freaked out when I realized that there was no one to help. I went back and forth from where the lights were placed to our assigned studio. I […] The post Dianne’s Birthday Shoot appeared first on Shutterfairy Photography ..read more

I welcomed twenty-twenty-three with a quick family session by the sea. All the elements were there. The soft glow of the sun, the salty smell of the sea, and a family I was so excited about photographing. Last year, I met a lot of families. This year I am hoping I’d surpass the previous year. […] The post Chateau By The Sea Family Session appeared first on Shutterfairy Photography ..read more

Hong Kong grew on me! It wasn’t love at first sight, but as I slowly found myself roaming the streets of Hong Kong, getting lost in between, hopping from one train ride to another, I slowly developed feelings for Hong Kong. It was like getting to know someone and loving the entirety of the person, […] The post My love affair with Hong Kong. appeared first on Shutterfairy Photography ..read more

I don’t get to do this often. A styled birthday session for little humans turning one is so rare nowadays. The business of photography changed its landscape. I’ve been here for more than a decade. Some trends don’t stay too long. Others stay awhile, but then something new comes along. It keeps on changing! One […] The post Sabrina’s Birthday Shoot appeared first on Shutterfairy Photography ..read more

I first met Sienna about ten years ago. I photographed her wedding. Vintage was all the rage back then. Vintage car, embellished bride’s bouquet, vintage-inspired wedding gown. It was then that I knew I’d be doing what I do for a very long time. Since then I haven’t stopped taking pictures except at the height […] The post Shangri-la Mactan Family Session: Siena appeared first on Shutterfairy Photography ..read more
