The dream shoot

A teaser photo for my latest Pirouette collection, taken from (the forever awesome) Elisa Aquino's blog. I swear, that girl is just sooo so talented. Got to work with Nikki + Anne who I felt was just so perfect to model for my brand. They were super nice and easy to work with. ^_^

Big brother got a new toy! I am having the most fun using it. Lulz. Picture above shows what we obviously did this afternoon. I guess we'll be doing more practice shoots at home. *rolls with glee* Will blog more about the dress I made tomorrow; have to sew stuff now. I'll be having a bazaar this coming monday to friday (Jan 10-14) at the Ateneo college zen garden. Hello eyebags!

The preparation kinda took long. We had to rush (the taking of pictures) to catch the sunlight. When the shoot was finally done, we relaxed and had some pizza. We went up to the rooftop and from a distance, saw some fireworks...

Today is tutu making day

Photography by: Michele Achacoso

Model: Carmel de la Cruz

Making alot of tutus for my shop. They're all free size; but i do make customized ones upon request. Heres a pic of one of the first tutus i ever made (around last year). I asked my friend to pose for me, and i took her picture in our backyard! haha. Boy, the first look of my webshop had no theme whatsoever. All the other stuff she's wearing were products that i had for sale too. ahh memories of starting out...

Greetings from R and H!

Pissu!

Gahh~ sorry for the behind the scenes photo spamming. And also for my recent obsession of polaroid framing my pictures. I finally got my Microsoft Office running again!~ lol random.

uhh...more polaroid photos by me

In relation to this post, just looked at Yuu's blog, where she posted stuff about Day 1 of the shoot. Love all the pics she took! She has all the nice ones! ♥

Greetings from Yuu and Chi too!

I had Yuu and Chi model some of my products for PIROUETTE, mostly bags and tanktops (the photo here is another outtake, as usual).

Just got home from a photoshoot (well...around an hour ago). Had so much fun! Here's one outtake from yesterday. Argh...not a lot of outtakes to choose from, but this one's pretty decent looking. Gonna sort thru the other pics later! Woohoo!!

We are the dolls

Big dolls and little dolls, dressed in matching outfits that I made.

Spreading the Pullip Love! My first attempts at clothes making was sewing clothes for my dolls. I have now progressed to creating fashion for "big dolls"!

There once was a hippie...

I dont remember why, but after more than an year of absence, i decided to check out my friendster account. Oh my gosh! It changed!..looks sort of like facebook now. I looked at my old profile pics, and saw many fun photos that i’d forgotten existed.

We all meet people at many points in our life. And there once was a girl named Fatz who loved having photoshoots. We had one at my place maybe 2 or 3 years ago. And I found the photos last night! (only outtakes tho).
