Photographer in Philippines
As someone who has performed, I became familiar with that feeling of being in front of an audience and yet being in a world of your own. It has always captivated me to see other passionate performers who are driven to give their audience the best version of themselves.
To capture performers at their best, at their happiest, and in their most natural state is what has driven me as a photographer since I began this endeavor.
I started my photography page on May 1, 2024, making my services available primarily to my friends and colleagues at the UST Conservatory of Music. I am currently in my 4th year of studying for my undergraduate degree, Bachelor of Music in Music Technology. Through my stay in the conservatory, I have been fortunate enough to be trusted by a handful of my friends to be their photographer for their recitals and other outside gigs.
With each gig, I have strived to improve my own skills as a photographer. Trust me, if you were to scroll down my Facebook page to see my oldest post and my latest, the difference is night and day. It is my highest priority that I deliver on my clients' trust in me, so I always give my best effort to get that one shot that encapsulates them and their performance.
As I've discovered, in every performance, there is a moment to be secured. My job as a photographer is to secure that moment, to capture the performer at their best, at their happiest, and in their most natural state so that they can look back on that moment and remember the joys of being on the stage.
