above is a photo of the women sewing doormats in the hut next to our family house in the philippines. it's currently used by a company in their website. my mother's the one standing at the back, taking a break from making their lunch to be in the photo.

first sale @ imagebrief

just got my first (hopefully not the last) image licensed at imagebrief.  it's basically a company that caters to specific requirements of companies needing images by sourcing them directly from photographers worldwide. the big draw? they take out the smallest commission in the industry.

the image that got licensed was from the shoot pictured above (tho not this specific image) with scotty, anton, and jordy - taken in maplewood.

maybe they were just happy that the shoot was over, but they all seemed in their most relaxed in this last photo i took of them, taken at the front stoop of the building where i live.  i've finally processed and submitted all the images from the series, all for stocksy , including the ones taken in their apartment.

was supposed to do another shoot yesterday, but model said he slipped and injured himself, so i guess that'll have to wait until next week.
