Theme: Pregnancy shoot
Model: Nicole, 9 months pregnant with baby Amara & Pipo, the soon to be dad!
Directors: Arman and Jowe, make up artists at the same time
Photographers: Gabbo and Ivy, totally noob in studio lights
Studio and Lights: The Luminarium, Katipunan Avenue, near City Savings Bank, in front of Miriam College.

Despite the fact that it was our first time and that we lack the experience in this aspect, the shoot went well and we had a lot of fun. And I couldn’t be more thankful for Nicole and Pipo for being patient with us. Thanks also to Arman and Jowe for directing.

Technically speaking, we suck at this shoot. LOL. First because we know nothing about studio lighting techniques and second, we didn’t know how to make our model pose. But since it was a totally fun shoot with friends, we took our time to learn the ropes and figure out stuff as we went along. With Jowe and Arman directing; and Pipo and Nicole being so game and confident on the shoot, it went a lot better. It was a handicap on our end. Nonetheless, there were plenty of things to learn.

Congrats to the new Mom and Dad!

Don’t worry, all of our first photographs end up not being the best but you have to start somewhere right? These look nice, actually. Mine were a hot mess. Good job.
