Kipopda Grass x Birth of AB Photography

AB Photography

Ryuma Food Overload

Kipopda Grass

A fun-filled Saturday with my friends. Yes, story and loads of pictures (as always) under the cut.

My friend, Klariz, will be celebrating her 18th birthday in two weeks. According to her, her mother asked her if she still need a photographer to shoot her pre-debut pictures. She told her mom that she don't need any since she has talented friends. <3

Klariz <3

She messaged me and Micah one night and asked if we're free on a Saturday. Micah has an exam the following Monday but that couldn't stop her from going. I also have an exam on Tuesday and Wednesday but who cares, my hell week (concluded by a dreaded Stat101 long exam) just ended. So I really needed this chill time photoshoot.

We will be calling our duo AB (Agramon-Barrameda) Photography from this day on.

Micah and I

Klariz also invided Bea and Pritzy to go but as always, Pritzy was late. Well, too late that she wasn't able to join us the whole day. Fortunately, Bea was around. She served as Klariz's stylist, closet, bag stand, joker, and the likes. Haha! Thanks Bea!

Bea

I did her make-up even though I had no idea how it's really done. My little knowledge from YouTube helped a bit, I guess.

We started shooting in Makiling Botanical Garden, UPLB.

We saw people dressed in white walking in the forest. If I were alone, I would've mistaken them as some lost soul wandering along the forest. Good thing, I'm with 3 other humans.

My every day motto: When in doubt, wear shorts.

The whole team! =))

Plus Brown Hedwig!

Bea was laughing the entire time.

We head of to Ryuma Restaurant in Paseo de Sta. Rosa to have lunch.

Bea, Micah and I had Tori Teriyaki which was really gooood! Not to mention, it has a large serving that could 2 people could share. I would definitely go back to Ryuma for this.

We found this pseudo-Sakura tree inside the ladies' room. I don't why I couldn't focus the camera that time. Perhaps, I was too full to  function.

Took some mandatory group pictures.

Then we headed off to Nuvali to continue our business.

Me in action. LOL

Nuvali won't be Nuvali without these.

I spotted a kid (again). In roller blades, this time. After taking this shot, a mom came to me to ask if I could take their family photo. I said yes, of course. I didn't know 500d is that lightweight, almost similar to 450d's. 

I almost forgot about the title. Bea coined it! It's supposed to be "Keep of the Grass" but Bea is Bea. She pronounced it as Kipopda Grass, making it sound like a new species of grass.

If these pictures were not an indication enough, I truly had fun! This was just what I needed after a hell week in school. I remember just taking pictures, laughing and eating the whole time. Makes me want to do everything all over again. Good times with true friends! <3
