We got the opportunity to take a short break from the wedding game for a day and shoot a DEBUT this last week. For those of you who might not be familiar with this Filipino custom, the Debut is a traditional coming-of-age celebration for a young woman’s 18th birthday. Think of it as the equivalent of a Sweet 16 or a Quinceañera. From the start of our day, it was nothing but fun getting to capture those close knit family vibes that everyone had. Even amongst the other vendors we got to work with, it felt like everyone knew each other. When you get the chance to work in such an environment, you remember it forever. Clarissa, her family, and her court were so on point when it came to directing them during the photo session, the ideas and concepts just seemed to flow into each other seamlessly. Not only were they on point for the photo session, Clarissa and her court were also on point with their awesome dancing with the Waltz and their Hip-Hop routine. Talk about clean! The dancer in me wanted to jump into the formation and block myself in the routine… ;) BIG BIG thank you to Clarissa, her older brother Jan, and the rest of the family/friends for being so welcoming and so easy to work with throughout the whole day. Much love!
