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.
Tonight we worked on another shoot featuring the Shalott Lilly jewelry pieces we received from Texas. Last week we shot Ariane with the same pieces, so to show a variety to the jewelry designer’s online catalog with a local aspiring model – Cameron.
Crystal and I have shot with Cameron before, however it mainly focused on her boyfriend who’s also an aspiring model. The shoot went well and we got the shots needed with the jewelry pieces.
Last October we were commissioned to shoot a set for a jewelry line called Shalott Lilly designed by Adrian Amiro of Midland, Texas. Tonight, we were able to shoot her pieces with our model Ariane.
The Shalott Lilly line of jewelry pieces are made from “…all sorts of pretty flowers, vintage pieces, glass, beads….and lots of filigree. Every piece is a one of a kind creation (ShalottLilly.com).”
