Some Family Photos

Most of these photos were made when we were in California in April. Just a few months dated. They are my willing, sometimes not so willing models. Especially my kids, David and Missy, they always ask how many more before it's done. To them 2 or 3 is alright, 6 is too much but as a photographer even in my film days, whenever the light is great (tip#1-most important!!!), the location is quite good (tip#2), I may take as many as 15 shots up to one roll 36-exp. film just on one or two shooting angles. Now with digital, I take even more (tip#3). I just have to coax, plead, beg & sometimes bribe my kids. Usually, a dollar each is good enough but not always. They're not sophisticated enough to ask me for their own TFP or TFCD. Well, Missy is more willing than David and I'm happy with that. With David I just make more candid shots. There were times, Missy was the one who asked me to take her pictures.

Crazy Shirt Folding

Everyone should fold a shirt like this. So you see, I don't want to post any nonsensical stuff here :-) Seriously, anything goes but it will be honest, never obscene and interesting. I hope you'll bookmark this blog from now on.

First Post

Hello!!! As you can see I'm a little excited. For the longest time ever, I've been thinking of doing a personal blog but didn't really got around to doing it until today. But why a blog, seems like just a glorified way of doing a journal that I can share with whoever has the time and inclination to know what's happening...For those who know me, they know that my passion is about photography and whenever I get the chance I always bring my dslr to make pictures. Most of the time, I have a set of models I can count on, meaning 'my family'. Of course, I also welcome people who pay me to "shoot" them.

Thus, I guess I can say I've started this blog to promote this aspect of my passion as a business proposal. Also quite recently, as in two days ago, I signed up to be a 'Referal Travel Agent' for World Ventures. This area is still new to me and as I continue to study and learn this other business venture, I will keep you updated.

So what can you expect from my blog. I don't want to bore you with nonsense stuff so please be assured that whatever I post here, you'll be gaining something. Apart from knowing and seeing what's new with me and my love ones, I would like to share with you things that most people I hope wouldn't mind reading about. Lastly, since I'm a greenhorn in blogging, I sincerely welcome your comments and suggestions.
