A Hundred Smiles
Post created on December 15, 2009 by Reesie under Friends, Photography · 30 Comments »
Do you like to have a photo of yourself taken by a pro for free? Wait no more!
Charing lang.. I sounded like I am really advertising. I am just trying to be a good friend here. Okay, here we go….
One of my beastfwendz forced me to promote his photography project in Manila this December. Yes, walang bayad ito. Hmpt!Kahit Christmas gift, wala. Grr. 
Jesslee intends to capture a hundred smiles in a day in Manila. He did it in Japan successfully together with a friend of his. The photos turned out really good. Aside from his talent, the subjects’ reactions were really natural that is why the output is amazing. I don’t want to admit to him but I am loving his photos. Hehe. They bring positivity to the world…to me. I can’t help but smile upon seeing so many smiling people.
You can check out his photos of bunch of smiling people HERE. While you are at it, you can also check his website HERE and some of his works HERE.
So if you are in Manila in December 27 and interested of getting a wonderful photo of yourself or a photo with your kids, wife, mistresses, dog, cat, horse, etc. taken like the ones below, email Jesslee at simplyjesslee[at]gmail[dot]com or you can leave a reply on this post. The only requirement is you SMILE like this 
or this 
or this 
…whatever you like.
OR if by any chance, you will see a guy in the street or in the mall shooting people who have photo frames in their hands then that’s him..that’s your chance right there! Grab his attention by giving your best wacky smile. LOL
I will update this post as soon as I get the time and the venue of this event from him or you can email him directly for details.
Oh…one more thing, you should ask for compensation from him as well… you’re sort of a model you know. You should get paid, right? LOL. (Patay ako nito)
Seriously, the compensation that you would get is a very nice photo taken by a very talented photographer. Perhaps, you can print a poster size of it afterward and hang it in your office door/wall and you’ll be the subject of envy. HiHi.
Here are some of his photos:

Suddenly, I had the urge to eat banana split. I gave in to my craving. I stopped my work at went to the nearby SONIC.
At ito na siya!!!
Oh yes, I love my work when there’s nothing much to do but eat! Bwahaha! Tabi-tabi po sa mga nagugutom.
Ang Butiki, Bow!

I did concede to one common suggestion of some people that I have to try shooting another kind of subject aside from flowers. Masunorin po talaga ako.
So here it is, nakakita ako ng butiki sa kisame este sa kahoy. Kinausap ko siya na maging model ko at magpose para sa akin. Buti nalang at pinagbigyan niya ang kahilingan ko. I didn’t know that butikis are so photogenic pala. Tingnan niyo…
Ganda niya, di ba? At may props pa siyang bulaklak! Bonggaciousness!
Hindi po siya house lizard gaya ng butiki sa bahay namin noon sa barrio na ang ingay sa gabi at nangingitlog kung saan-saan.This is one of the many kinds of lizard here in the desert of New Mexico. Sa totoo lang, na miss ko ang tunog ng butiki… tuko! tuko! tuko! Hahaha!
Hindi po yung butiki ang tumawa, ako po yun.
O eto konting trivia lang: Itong butiki na nakikita nyo ay isang Sagebrush lizard, isa sa mga klase ng butiki na matatagpuan dito sa New Mexico. Ang kinakain ng mga sagebrush lizard ay mga maliliit na insekto tulad ng langgam, beetles, grasshoppers, termites, aphids etc.
You can check here for more info about this wonderful butiki.

My First and Last Try in Photography?
Post created on May 5, 2009 by Reesie under Photography · 43 Comments »
I know some friends of mine who are now into digital photography. Tim even encouraged me to start shooting people , animals, landscape, flowers, etc. The problem was I had no interest and haller, DSLR’s are so damn expensive!
One of my responsibilities here in the office is deciding what computers, servers, network equipment, and some engineering gadgets should the company purchase. Now, the engineering department needs a very good camera –so who are they gonna call? Moi! As if I know anything about cameras! So I chose Canon EOS 50D from Best Buy, the most expensive one they have! Hindi ko naman pera, eh!
And you know what, I realized photography is fun! I might consider getting a camera like this sooner. Or, I can borrow this anytime anyway. Lol. Cheapangga talaga ang lola nyo!
Nilalaro ko ang cam and here’s my first shot:
Note pala: Photoshop did not touch this. Raw ito mga fwendz. Fresh na fresh from the garden.
How did I do mga professional photographer friends? Bff Epfi? Herbs? Jes? Jepoy? Joycee? All of you my blogosphere friends? Should I just stop right now or should I try and try and try until I die?
I need your honest opinion folks. No ballot buying here, pramis. Please take time to vote sa poll located on the sidebar also. Thanks. Kinareer talga!
