On President’s Day we photographed newly designed t-shirts and merchandise by Taglish Tees. Filipino Fighting Arts Academy (FFAA, special thanks to Chief Instructor Brian ‘Spunk’ Trial) were kind enough to let us use their space during evening and we were able to successfully setup shop and photograph their new shirts and merchandise. Mike and Angelique from Taglish Tees gathered models to wear the new shirts for the shoot which included Jackie from our previous shoots, Maymar’s Brian Mayor, and even local dance crew YFAMD (Young Filipino American Modern Dancers of Virginia).
Gamboa Photos team member James Lewis provided behind the scenes video coverage for us to create a short video seen above. Make sure you click on the 720p setting on the youtube video to watch in HD! Hope you guys enjoy watching this behind the scenes clip, another version will be rolled out later on so keep coming to check our blog!
Here’s just a few of their new Filipino T-shirt designs and merchandise:
Stepping out of his norm for the 2009 Virginia Fashion Week, Brehon designed and unraveled his boldly colorful spring and summer 2010 collection at the Virginia Fashion Show this past Friday. He mixed his classic monochromatic style with colorful bold colors and used print fabrics to create his collection.
We were able to photograph 26 unique pieces in span of four hours for his Look Book with makeup and hair done by Desirai Tolbert with 4 models – Shaunda, Letitia, Rebekah, and Brandon.
It’s been a few week since we shot this particular series and we’re just finally are able to post these long awaited photos of models Yes & Jeremy for their ‘Secret Rendezvous’ photo shoot.
The story is about two secret lovers, portrayed by models Yes and Jeremy, meeting at a secluded beach away from peering eyes. We wanted the models to show a strong connection and intimacy in each shot – we believe they nailed it.
Last Thursday we shot with up and coming model Jerry for his portfolio. Jerry’s model portfolio package came with up to 4 hours of shooting, several looks, and a makeup and hairstylist, Allison Stout.
The first few taken were of Jerry’s head-shots, then moving into 3/4 shots, and then finally full length shots. Once we got most of his ‘must have portfolio’ shots taken care of, we then moved on to other shots featured in this post.
As part of our last-minute model photo shoot this past Saturday we shot with a second model Sandie. The team once again consisted of wardrobe stylist and photographer Shon D and makeup and hairstylist Allison Stout.
While Carly was being photographed, Ali was preparing Sandra’s hair and makeup for the last set of shots of the evening. Shon D also styled all the outfits and accessories for Sandie’s shots.
We pulled off another last-minute photo shoot this past Saturday with agency-signed model Carly Ross, and hair & makeup artist Allison Stout, and finally fellow wardrobe stylist Shon D.
This was a real last minute photo shoot that was put together in an hour and lots of calls were made and finally Shon and I were able to get things going. The only part of the shoot missing was the makeup and hairstylist. Unfortunately all of the MUAs that were called were not able to do it, until…
About a month ago we got in touch with local fashion designer Brehon Williams and shot a session with him for his spring fashion line with various models. Yesterday, he gave me a call wondering if the Gamboa Photos team would be able to shoot his latest fashion line.
We shot the three various outfits with model Letitia starting off first with a very retro, futuristic look complete with a silver outfit with matching cyclopse like eyewear.
