Fun shoot Saturday

Not really sure why it was called fun shoot before, but now, maybe I can tell.

My first ever fun shoot was when I was 8 months preggy with Evo. It was August last year with my cousin Cha. Imagine how ripe I was back then & I could only feel comfy with my cousin taking photos of me. What can I say? I nailed it! I was one daring preggo mom! It was pretty daring that Tope & I chose to keep the photos to ourselves. I was only able to post the decent ones. I wonder why I never tried this stuff (fun shoots) back when I was still single. Oh yeah I remember ditching one schedule with Mahalta photography club because my then boyfie turned husband Tope threatened me that we'll call it quits if I agree being the club's model for their fun shoot. Boohoo!

Let's skip past the sad part and enjoy the good stuff that happened last Saturday. I finally got a fun shoot. This time I was all slimmed down (though I haven't returned to my 23 1/2" waistline yet) and maybe more relaxed to lounge around JJ campus while being photographed. Tad-ah! Posted are some of the results.

If people will ask me why I had this fun shoot what will hit my mind will always be because my mom wanted me to have one. She's just been too proud of me, err, before. She thinks I'm the prettiest among her three daughters, and would always say how much she wanted my innocent look, youth, beauty, and radiance (ehem) be captured on cam. Years may wrinkle the skin, but a photographed youth will remain young forever. I would also want my son Evo to see this. When the time comes that he's mature enough to make a real conversation with me I will show him these photos and ask what he thinks. I wanna know if he'll say he has a real hot momma hehe. That's the time when I can only feel proud. Do I make sense? Yeah, I may look confident on these shots but heck no. I feel totally insecure about myself in reality. How I wish I could finally get rid of my post-partum weight gain and be the slim girl I used to be just two years ago. 

Fashion blogs by Camille Co and Laureen Uy also inspired me to try doing this. I may not be fashionable and I am not trying hard. I may not have a lot of the luxury/designer stuff, but, still I have a few posh pieces to begin with.
