it is less than 48 hours away.
Three months ago, it was just a plan. a fallback from the Thailand workshop that went bust when nobody took care of it. Today the Galera Project is virtually all set, with all the loose ends taken cared of late this afternoon.
expect the smoothest ride from Greenhills to Batangas City thanks to Jeffrey Yan, who took care of the chartered vans, with brand new vehicles. try to pack light on your diving equipment, so you'll have room leftover for your brand new 70-200 f2.8 lens. Yes, Ian Sayson, it will really be a perfect match for the shoot. John Garcia will also be breaking in his new 85mm f1.8, while Sandy Villagracia will put her new flash unit and gary fong diffuser through its paces. Close friend Aris & Cedric Dungo, also both diving enthusiasts, will be joining the location workshops for the first time. They have been private students since 2007. I hope Aris brings along a good cigar, as my Camara Estates brand might not be ready by tomorrow. The cigar labels have encountered a courier problem which i hope will be resolved by tomorrow morning. TJ Tan, fresh from another international trip, will also be joining the location workshops for the first time. He is from the Astoria Plaza Sessions, organized through the efforts of Ulysses Chua, who has handled all our booking requirements. Up until a few days ago, Roxanne San Agustin was very seriously eyeing the Olympus Pen as a lighter alternative to her backpack-full equipment. I told her if she gets the olympus, her back problems will virtually be gone in an instant. Potpot Pinili will have his sights on the glamour landscapes, while Maja Riveral will have his hands full digesting his first one-on-one location tutorial with me. My student from Xavier, Chris King, will also be joining, along with his dad. Chris is one of the 3 people from xavier who i actually feel are exceptionally talented when it comes to photography. Chris will also be assisting me on the shoot, so he has clearance to come within 1 meter of our models. That is non-transferable, gentlemen.
See you in 40 hours.

im excited to be in galera for the pye. i just hope i will find my way from bicol to batangas.
i cant wait for my shots of misty gumamela, of the sun-kissed white sand while sini hops (as the wind blows her hair).
i cant imagine the riot with roxy & jeff. the laughter of john & sandy. the food trip w/ mane & sini (and paul yan as the master).
see you friday, in bikini.
I have my new board shorts, a pair of surf walkers, and 1,500 pcs of my CAMARA ESTATES cigar label. i cannot seem to find my cigar cutter though.
Gumamelas in the mist serving as the foreground for this fantastic model who should not be named until the workshop closes, will certainly be a shot worth a thousand words. and potpot, "if you shoot it, I will write it."
Meanwhile, two other models who can be named, will now be named. Nica and Nicole have just gotten back from a 5 day sojourn with a beautiful tan and they are ready to give us some of the best shots on what PAGASA has described as "probably one of the hottest days of the year". Both sisters have worked up their curves some more, in preparation for our workshop.
And if bikinis will be discussed, expect to see a yellow pair, in a non-cory yellow shade, to contrast with the dark blue tiles of the infinity pool.
and Potpot, I hope it fits.
see you all on friday, in my new "ariel & maverick" sunglasses.
