About Me

My photo
I'm not a graceful person. I'm not a Sunday morning or a Friday sunset. I am a Tuesday 2AM, I am gunshots muffled by a few city blocks, I am a broken window during February. My bones crack on a nightly basis. I fall from elegance with a dull thud, and I apologize for my awkward sadness. I sometimes believe that I don't belong around people, that I belong to all the leap days that didn't happen. The way light and darkness mix under my skin has become a storm. You don't see the lightning, but you hear the echoes.

Old photographs ...

A gallery of my favorite shoots taken by myself, family, friends, and old loves :). I enjoyed doing this because each picture comes with a lovely narration of stories. See how fast time flies. And leaves us with beautiful memories.

More to come. Cheers to life!




Always a fave picture of Baby Sophie, almost 5 months old. Same pic that was published in Baby Magazine, same pic pasted on our ref, same one you will see in my wallet and Lola Miles', too. It was a lazy afternoon, me and baby, had nothing to do but bum around the bedroom, 2/F in a townhouse somewhere in Moonwalk, Las Piñas. Still very tiny and soft and ohhh sooo cuddly, I tried to use the pillows to support her while she tried to pull away with that "carry me please, mommy" look while mommy struggles with the camera.




Bonding moments @ the shower. Closing to terrible two. Sophie looked so innocent, paying attention to what Mommy was telling her ... I bet, I was trying to "make her bola" so she wouldn't have to cry as I tried to wash her face with water. This is such a lovely picture of us ... those days when I used to color my finger nails :) ... those days when I can still bathe her or even take the shower together.




Daddy's girl. I posted in FB under Sophia Clarisse and everyone agreed, JM ikaw ba yan? :)




Ronnie holding hands with Sophie. On her 3rd birthday celeb @ Jollibee. Si Rons always present na yan since 1st birthday ni Sophie, Storyland days pa.




I call this, MESSY CUTE. Me shooting my niece Stephanie. MOA kembot with her mom, my cousz, Rors', second homecoming from Dubai. I miss na Steph. :(




Fairy boy, Joshua Niguel. His mothers eyes. My best dude's first born. Missing the boys from New York City.




Lambingan moments ni bunso at ni panganay. Missing my motorcycle rides with my baby cousz Jon Mark. Akalain mo yan, our exes are first cousins.. OMG. Small world.




Almost 30. Those years of beautiful friendship. DOGNUTS.




Kami lagi ang taga tumba ng isang kaha ... hahahah ... walang patawad kahit Holy week ... keber na dalawa lang kami after ma-indian na naman ni Nanat ... tuloy kung tuloy ... me and Pareng Pong Pagong ;). Our run away statement those days, these days. "Hibernation. Ayusin ko lang buhay ko."




Sister Ghie. Isa sa pinakamabait kong kaibigan. So beautiful inside and out. High school days, I remember super talented dancer and volleyball player. Happy that she nows stay in Manila.




In love with ol' ITSED. My friend Jen during our (1st stop) dinner at Gerry's Grill MOA. Lovely with her purple bayong bag curt'sy of "Cesar Ladder :), previously from CITEM's Publicity Group", over-looking my peach cocktails. Me ... I was the one taking the picture.




My kiddos trying our very best to have a good time monkeying around tat lonely hallway. The night e-Services died. :(





Always a fave pic of B to the 3rd power ;) ... si Betong, melancholic. si Baby, hesitating ... (as always), at si Bok (happy with her power smile!).




Billboard porn with Nettchii. A few days after ESP 2008, we decided to all come to the office in white tops (everyone was glad kasi sumunod ako sa dress code hahah) for a so-called photo shoot. We were so happyyyyyyyyyy. This pic of Nettchii and me brought the house down. The now famous lesbianism act.




The devilish grin. My reluctant smile. Kami ni Honey ko.




Same shades. Same skies. I was blushing. She was using her eyes. ;). My last Christmas @ CITEM. She counted 2 more. We still hangout @ Treats Bluewave where beer lyte is cheaper and Subway comes in handy.





Yangers and Jie and our blue margarita during the Peñafrancia Festival in Naga City. My first Air Philippines hehehe. My adorable cabin. My pink hanes. Mwah! from Twin Frost.




Yoh and ... hush hush

Ang pinakamasarap na shot ng baby ko. Kuha ng pinakamagaling na photographer sa balat ng lupa. MORAL LESSON: Hwag higa ng higa kung saan saan, lalo na kung pababa ng hagdan si Boklay! Hahahah salamat Bok!









Marked!

**Please Note: I take no credit for most of the photographs used in my blog articles for I am no photographer myself. Some pics from online. Some of them from the generous hearts of my friends. If by any chance, you see a picture belonging to you and it bugs you, loses sleep over it, and eventually kills you to see it here, e-mail, SMS, text, call, leave me a message, and I will gladly remove it. If you want credit... please let me know details, I will be more than glad to do that.
