So, Tumblrverse, I have a question for you:
Would you prefer to see a multitude of food photographs in one big Tumblr post, or would you find this too daunting and hunger-inducing and therefore prefer one photo to a post?

When Tracy goes shooting
There’s more to getting ready for a shoot than just grabbing my camera and running out the door. I also take into consideration what I should wear, not in the sense of being oh-so-fashionable even behind the camera, but in different ways.
Like picking shoes. I’d never wear my girly high-heeled shoes, obviously, and I would rather not wear flip flops when shooting, either. My go-to...

Resurrection
Last Wednesday, we took a break from working at the office and went on a little field trip to Resurrection, a place introduced to us by Alex, one of our interns.
Upon entering the gate, aside from the cats sleeping in the sun, we were greeted by old shoes turned into “pots” for plants that led to the front door.
Inside are all sorts of interesting things. One of the main...

Today!
Salon date this afternoon with my favorite blondie, Tricia! I’m a loud little redhead again, and she got her roots retouched. :D
Dinner at Yellow Cab with friends — Teptep, Adi, Kim, Andrew, Chrissy, Tricia, and RG! I found myself to be quite the seventh wheel after Kim left early, since Kiks wasn’t in attendance tonight. But it’s all good. :D

Coffee, company, conversations, & cameras
Another evening with a favorite combination for a great nightcap.
I always enjoy spending the evening at CBTL in Katipunan. It’s so laid back, the music is at a relaxing volume, you hardly notice the chatter, it isn’t crowded, and you could spend hours there and never notice how quickly time flies.
First time to try my favorite evening CBTL drink over ice, and it’s just as...

kiksology:
ugh… creative trainingmy behind! -_-
adcomarttheft:
Who or what is Adcom?
Adcom is a creative training institute that uses artwork tracing as a method of learning. This is not something new or unheard of.
But Adcom has gone beyond the pale by using traced works in their advertising.
What exactly has happened?

Random fact #2936019349
Live view shooting is great and all, but I still feel like I compose shots better when I look through the viewfinder. I use the live view function when I’m shooting high or low angles, but I try to use my viewfinder as much as possible. I use live view to check if my white balance looks okay, to zoom-focus, and to double check exposure in tricky situations.

2nd's
This is probably going to be one of my most useless “reviews” (if you could call it that) because you will hardly see any food in the photos. LOL I stepped out after ordering, and the food was already there when I got back.
Since my mom won’t be in the country on Mother’s Day (she’s going to Shanghai for work! Boo hoo!), we decided to celebrate tonight.
I shared...

On my photography bucket list: 1940s pin-up!
I’ve ALWAYS wanted to do a pin-up photo shoot! It’s one of the first things that popped into my head to do when I first got into photography. ONE DAY.

On being a redhead (over a brunette)
So if you follow me on Instagram, you’d be well-informed that I’m back to being a redhead, after quite some time.
Much thanks to Etude House’s Bubble hair dye (wine red) which, by the way, I would not have understood if not thanks to Crissey! All the instructions were in Korean, sooo. I couldn’t use it until I knew how to work the stuff.
Some people wonder why I opted...

When I’m too lazy to feel for my glasses in the dark of my room to look at the moon outside my window, I grab my camera and manually focus. What a dork.
