Martin Tan and Edvie Climaco E-Session









It was FUN, that’s how I described our Engagement shoot-out with Martin and Edvie, this guys are both awesome. We have our first stop in Liloan, then we headed to JJC Farm in Compostela owned by Edvie’s Uncle. As I Prepared my gears, I was a bit worried as the rain falls, but good thing is it didn’t take that long. While the couple are preparing their clothes, I’m also busy finding nice spot around the farm, I found this old Benz, best for our vintage concept, and additional bonus is there’s this Big Horse, I know Edvie and Martin is excited to ride with it. My plan is just to spend 30mins there in the farm, but when I saw the whole place, it's really good location, perfect for my plan, so we stayed there for over an hour. Our final location is Alegre, around one hour and a half drive from the City, the resort is very beautiful, It’s very Romantic and again perfect place for prenup shoot-out.

To Martin and Edvie, Congaratulations, All the Best from Jaypee Photography and team…

Sinulog 2010 Awards Night

Last Wednesday, 7:58 a.m. I received a call from a strange number 254-5010. As I answer my phone while driving, I was surprise by her announcement, as she says "hello jaypee good morning this is Dolly from Sinulog Foundation, I'm happy to tell you that you've won the 2nd and 10th prize for the Contingent Category of Sinulog 2010 Photo Contest." From that minute, I kept on screaming, with a tears of joy, I never expected that I'll grab a prize over 1500 photographers, and more than 20,000 entry photos to be judge only in one day.
As I remember, during the Sinulog, my day started around 5.30 in the morning, I took a cup of coffee and a piece of bread as I prepared my gears, drove up going to the city.My plan is to be in the place early so I can get a good lighting... My winning piece was taken around 7.30am, One of the contingent made their first dance, I said to myself "this is it", I position my ladder, with my 5dm2 and 70-200 2.8. i.s at my right shoulder and 40d mounted with 300mm 2.8 at my left, I made a few test clicks with 5d, Luckily those 2 first clicks won the prize for the contigent category...
I thank the Good Lord for the talent he gave to me. I'm sharing to you guys the photos that I've won, and some pictures during the awards night last Saturday, with my friends from Images Camera club...

Sinulog 2010

Sinulog is a dance ritual in honor of the miraculous image of the Santo Nino. The dance moves to the sound of the drums and this resembles the current (Sinulog) of what was then known as Cebu’s Pahina River. Thus, in Cebuano, they say it’s Sinulog. It is my 7th year to cover the Sinulog Festival, and still the passion and excitement remains as it is like my first time to shoot. I'm posting some of my fave photos... Viva Pit Senyor...
