{simplyEVENTS} - CSARINA'S 18TH BIRTHDAY TEASERS

Here are some teaser shots from Csarina's 18th Birthday Celebration.
It was a great collaboration covering this fun-filled event with
VC Productions for the photo booth and Green Light for the videography.
It was a gorgeous venue on top of a hill and Csarina's guests were full of energy.
Thanks for having us cover your event!
Cameron and I are very happy for your achievements, Csarina....congrats!

WE LOVE THE BEACH!

The entire family took a road trip to San Diego to hang out at Mission Beach.
Mission Beach has become our family's favorite beach because Belmont Park is right next to it.
It's so convenient to have the beach, amusement park, shops and eateries all in one place.
Check out these action shots of my water babies boogie boarding.
Can you tell they had an awesome time? =)

{simplyKIDS} - QUINN AND ALYSSA

After the completion of the final product for this shoot, here are some more cute pictures to share of Quinn and Alyssa. Thanks for hanging in there Mommy Michelle!
Cameron and I had such a great and relaxing time snapping away with these two.
They both had a lot energy and was very cooperative.
After the shoot, they still had enough juice to race around with Danica and Koen (our babies)
on the pathway where Quinn was riding his scooter (see photos below).
This post is also dedicated to blog viewers who diligently browse during their lunch hour...
....you know who you are. =)

{simplyLOVE} - VICTOR AND LALAINE ENGAGEMENT SESSION

I've known Victor for many years now, since college, in fact.
I first met Victor through IRC...way before IM's were invented!
I'm glad that we've kept in touch through the years and I feel blessed to have him as a friend.
He's also my graphic designer---thanks for designing my biz cards and my old website. =)
We had such an awesome and easy engagement session today,
these two are such troopers, they followed all of our directions effortlessly.
They were both such naturals in front of the camera!
Veeh and Len [as friends and family call them], we are so happy for both of you.
Congratulations on your engagement and we wish you two a lifetime of love and happiness.
See you at your wedding in San Diego in the fall. We wish you both the best!

Here's Cameron and I with Veeh and Len.
Our daughter, Danica, took this shot.
Cameron here caught looking worried about Danica dropping the heavy camera.
But my "Mimi Me" did a fine job. We're so proud of her! =)

{simplyEVENTS} - ALEE'S 18TH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION

Cameron and I had a great time covering Alee's 18th Birthday Celebration aka "Debut".
A debut is a Filipino traditional rite of passage celebrating a daughter's 18th birthday.
You can say it's quite similar to a "Quinceanera" celebration.
The group was very fun and energetic, we almost couldn't keep up
with the up and coming generation.
We also did Alee's grad shoot a couple weeks back
and it was such a pleasure to work with her again on her birthday. You go girl!!!
