It was a stressful week isn’t it? My friend Carlo and I decided to take a stroll around Greenbelt and take some night photos. It wasn’t the usual day where we prepare for everything. So, we just went there, with a permit of course, and had fun looking at the lights and people having fun.
Carlo always wanted to master his camera and advised him to try doing night photos so he can familiarized himself with all the settings. Night photography is a little bit tricky due to light conditions. To be able to capture sharp pictures is not a walk in the park. Thank you very much to Mr. Maphilindo Tandoc of Ayala Land and Mr. Allan Ang of Ayala Property Management for helping and granting us the permits.
A month ago, my wife and I were invited to a wedding. I’ve always wanted to learn wedding photography and not many like doing it since it’s not a walk in the park. 3 of my friends were my inspiration in doing photography and all of them are wedding photographers. Since the lovebirds are close friends, I did ask if it’s possible to join their photographer in taking pictures.
So, here I am, acting like a real photographer LOL! I was able to take around 183 photos and just wanted to share some of them in this slide. I did use Lightroom in some of them. I’ll try to study and practice more. To Mark and Vicky, congratulations!
