My response in shooting the Blogger

Posted by Azrael Coladilla | View Comments |

I just received this via email and I want to share this to everyone, I'm excited to work with this international photographer, and I met him before already in a local party event and wow! check out his portfolio!

As you may know, I'm a photographer from San Francisco who is based here now in Manila. I have been able to shoot actor Martin Sheen, musician Mark Hoppus (Blink 182), actor Kevin Sorbo (Hercules), athlete Jerry Rice, comedian Chris Tucker, and others. Locally, I've been able to shoot Cristine Reyes, Rhian Ramos, Diether Ocampo, Angelica Panganiban, Angel Aquino, and Jake Cuenca. I have been published in local and international glossies and mostly shoot fashion.

The reason why I'm emailing you is that I am undergoing a personal project of mine to photograph some of the most influential bloggers here in the Philippines. And I would like to start with you. That is, if you're interested.

and then...my answer is YES!
so let's pray for a good weather and let's start that shoot!
I will reveal soon our international photographer

-

and on other news, I was suppose to be a TV guest for this morning show, but a day before the taping,they postponed my sched and they resched it on another date. That topic is all about toys and gifts for Christmas. oh, didn't know that the "Ber" month is already here.. and it smells it is Christmas time.

I didn't expected that they will have a press con today and I just saw Steve Job's glowing face from their press con today and I prayed for a faster internet connection to watch their press con in live video stream. Steve looks more excited and he presented to us their new products and cool upgrades in their Apple line up. I'm going to list here some great news and time to update your Christmas wishlist, because all of these new ipods will be available next week in the USA.

Steve Jobs showed up on stage after that Beatles music on the background and tells everyone - ""we got really good stuff to show""

TECH: Apple live streaming press con today at Sept 2 @ 1AM Manila time

Posted by Azrael Coladilla | View Comments |

I just received a media alert from our local PR about the livestreaming of the press conference of Apple that will happen today September 2, 2010 at 1:00AM Manila, Philippines time. The important announcement can be viewed via a live video stream at www.apple.com.

To watch the live video stream you are required to watch it in a Mac book running in Safari, or from an Iphone, Ipod Touch and Ipad.

I don't know what will be the big announcement and its sad that I don't have a Mac here at home, so I'll just get updates from Twitter and some blogs.
