Goings on

It seems like ages since I last blogged something. So I thought I would do SOMETHING tonight.

If you've visited this site lately, you've noticed some "technical difficulties" with the slideshows. I'll get those up and running again soon, especially for those that view some certain slideshows often.

Well onto something current, tomorrow is Andrea's 18th Debutante party and I had the privilege to shoot some pre-party pictures. Here's one for you below, looking forward to a fun evening, and.. Happy Birthday!

Video of Arnel Pineda Concert in Reno

Just a glimpse, can't wait until he comes back with Journey.



A couple of other smaller videos.

Arnel Pineda

Earlier this evening, we saw Arnel Pineda in concert at the Peppermill Resort and Casino in Reno. I was really looking forward to seeing him because he is now the lead singer of one of my all time favorite bands, Journey. Although I was hoping he would sing some Journey songs, I expected that he wouldn't be allowed, since this was his own concert and Journey wasn't with him tonight.
As expected, he didn't get to sing any Journey songs, but he still gave an excellent performance and the crowd had a wonderful time.

But before I post some pictures you have to watch this video on how Arnel was chosen to be the lead singer for Journey, what an awesome inspiring story, rags to riches. Check it out.



Here are some of my favorite pictures.







You know what was really funny, here I am taking pictures near the front of the stage and mobs of people around me, I didn't even notice that Arnel had decided to get up close and personal.

Raimund Liam and Rafaele Ethan Dano

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to photograph my good friend Reynald's new twin baby boys as they were Baptized. I have to tell you, these are the most well behaved babies I have ever seen!! Not only are they quite adorable and handsome, but they are such good babies, they never cry!! they just take it all in and go with the flow.

Thanks for having me there Rey and Alissa, you are truly blessed. Check out the slideshow.

Happy Birthday Cherae!

A couple of weeks ago, I shot an amazing 18th Birthday Party for Cherae Bagnol. As a Photographer one of the perks of being on the sideline observing is you get to see the interactions and gestures during the party. All I can say is that with the amount of love and support Cherae received this evening, I have no doubt that she will be very successful in life in whatever she decides to do. Happy Birthday Cherae!

Facebook, blogger, Facebook, blogger...

Ok, so I'm going a little crazy here, I've had some success tonight, but didn't completely accomplish what I wanted. Never the less, you'll see a couple of changes to my page, specifically 3 things but I may only keep 2. Here are the 3:

1. On the bottom of each post going forward, there is a share link for Facebook, so that you can share the post to your Facebook page. This is really good for those that are really good looking and end up on my blog :)

2, 3. The other 2 things are on the right column of this page, they are another share link (this one I am thinking of removing) and a link to my Photography page on Facebook.

I saw another photographer who had his Facebook streaming to his page, so that whenever there was an update to his Facebook, it would automatically show on his blog. This is the one thing I wanted to accomplish but couldn't figure it out.

On the other hand, I figured out how to link this blog to my personal and Photography Facebook pages. So now from my Facebook page (personal or photography), you can also see any posting on this blog. From my personal page, just click on the blogcast tab from my profile page.




From my Photography fan page, it will automatically post directly to the wall, as you will see below.



Well, I think I've done enough for tonight. But wait, I can't end this post without a picture. Congratulations to Sophia Villaflor, after being baptized last weekend. More pictures to follow, along with other pictures from her cousin's baptism Jay Carlos.

Latest Update

Sorry folks, it has been a while since I've blogged, but I haven't forgotten. Here are a few quick updates on what I've been doing lately.

Our godson, Jay Carlos was baptized last month, congratulations!




Our son Andrew started Baseball.





We went to San Francisco a couple of times, and I really like this picture of Fe Lyn.







And we took some Senior PIctures for Andrea, lots of fun.

Gabe and Cherryl's Baby Shower

Our nephew and niece are expecting their new baby girl in the next few weeks, so Fe Lyn decided it was time to throw them a baby shower. We headed to Mimi's cafe just down the street for some good food, and fun with the family.

I'm excited for them, it is their 2nd child. They hope to grow a baseball team, just kidding. Here are some of my favorite pictures from the Baby Shower below. Enjoy.
