Bajenting [Summary] =>

“No silly,” I said to my friends, as they presented the possibility that I could be pregnant after I told them that I haven’t had my monthly period for two months. The remark seemed to be addressed more to myself than to them. It’s not like the thought never crossed my mind before.

Much of what I have learned regarding Philippine history and the ins and outs of Filipino politics has come from two great journalists that have just recently passed the torch to another generation.

I am a professional photographer who shoots mostly industrial and business subjects, as well as architecture for magazines, hotels and resorts.

As a kid, my love and passion was nature. I would spend hours and hours going over hundreds of National Geographic magazines, marveling at the places and sights I thought I’d never have the opportunity to see – until very recently.
