Portrait Series: Dreaming In Pink

I've been inactive for a year mainly focusing on my life, new job, travelling, and of course my photography. Learning Portrait both Outdoor and Studio Light are very challenging for me. So, here's the start of my portrait shots...



"Dreaming In Pink", Halfmoon Bay California

3rd place, 07/18/2011 LVCC Pictorial Projected Intermediate






They say when you Dream of Pink, it represents love, joy, sweetness, happiness, affection and kindness. Being in love or healing through love is also implied with this color. Alternatively, the color implies immaturity or weakness, especially when it comes to love.


The model is Dolly, taken during our high school reunion last year in Halfmoon Bay California. We went to same school from grade school to high school in Philippines. I am sooo glad she bring the hat with her. What I want to capture is her hat (mind you, Dolly is one of the pretiest ladies in our batch) to compliment the view and add mystery to the image.

"I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles." ~ Audrey Hepburn
