my first birthday photo coverage

Finally. my first time to be hired as an official photographer of an event. in this particular instance, a birthday party of the mother in law of another blogger. To be honest, I got nervous when i was told and I had second thoughts. I was simply not confident yet. Sure, I have covered many events related to blogging before but this is completely different. There are expectations as you are paid to deliver good photos. With blog events, you take pictures if you want to and stop if you prefer to. That was my main concern. It's not about the money, as my first photography job, it's more about the reputation in line. hahaha

But kuya Edsel encouraged me and believed in me since day one so I accepted the offer. That is---after asking the backup of my friend Alex who I admire when it comes to photography, especially in portraiture.

Here are some of the shots I took that day.......

In the end, I was satisfied with my outputs. For sure, improvements could still be achieved, but not bad at all for a first-timer. 

I thank Alex for helping me out, the thought that he was there gave me confidence. And thank you kuya Edsel  for the trust......
