Sungha Jung

I know this is kind of a late post. Since these photos have been up on my facebook page  since last year. These were the photos from the 1st international Jazz & Blues Guitar Festival. The main highlight of day 2 which was this guy. Youtube sensation Sungha Jung known for his fingerstyle guitar playing and covers of well known songs. He did awesome renditions Rolling in the deep, Super Mario medley on a ukelele and the classic Hotel California. He's coming back though! Thanks to PinoyTuner.com's Planetjazz for bringing another exceptional musician to our shores.

UP Fair's University Student Council Speak Up: Loud, Proud and Unbound

UP Fair's University Student Council Speak Up: Loud, Proud and Unbound

I was very fortunate to be able to take photos from this event. My main mission was to take photos for Peryodiko. I was able to do whatever I want as long as I deliver. It was one hell of a night. Different bands from different genre's of Pilipino Music were there. Bands from Slapshock, Save me Hollywood, Gracenote, Callalily, Mayonaise, Moonstar88, Pedicab, 6Cyclemind, Sandwhich and Duster. 

All bands rocked the event. A lot of good lighting and fog machines and big sounds. Here are some of the photos of that night.

I had the privilege of taking photos from one of the bands that I respect the most in the industry. Its Peryodiko. I was able to take photos of them last year and it was posted here on my blog. Peryodiko's catchy tunes and very intelligent lyrics are the reasons that has drawn me to them.  Thank you Vin Dancel and for allowing me to take photos of this event and all the other opportunities that have given me. It was a good to be back in the pit after 2 months off.

Wilabaliw

Wilabaliw at I survived Doomsday

Wilabaliw put on an exciting show. It was an almost easy shoot, but coupled with very dim lights and fast moves of the front man Ian Tayao everything becomes a challenge. Again Thanks to Nina Sandejas for the access.

Queso at the I survived Doomsday: Rakrakan Series XVII

Queso at the I survived Doomsday: Rakrakan Series XVII

It was a very awesome event, Queso rocked the house at the very early ours of what was supposed to be the last day of the world. It was my first time taking photos of Queso. With a slew of photogs on the pitt, it was one of the more difficult shoots that I have encountered. But I'm happy with the results and I'm glad to share them to you.

I want to thank Nina Sandejas (click on her name to check out her photos) for giving me the chance to take photos on this event. She is the official Photographer of Red horse Beer and one of the people that I look up to in this field.
