Philippine Fashion Week 2011: Ipamena

Before I start, I would like to thank Mr Raoul Ramirez for sending me an invite online =).





Since I have work on last Saturday, I have to ask for something magical for it to happen XD. I left the office at 4:00pm and went to SMX in Pasay City. I anticipated the traffic jam that I would encounter but it didn't took me that long to get there. Once I'm there, I saw a long queue for the Ipamena as well as a blogger's event that is simultaneously happening while waiting for the show to start.











Since the show was held at the same venue where the Triumph's 125th Anniversary was held, I assumed that ramp would be the same. I was wrong, It has a different ramp as the show has started. There were a lot more photographers than the previous event (Triumph's 125th) I attended a few days back.














As the show starts, so as my struggle in getting a good position to shoot. I got being bumped once in a while as I take pictures of the models walking down the ramp. All the time while I was taking pictures, I was standing on one foot but I was able to keep myself in-balance.














Also, I'm still working on how to shoot fashion shows like these as I'm trying to find-out what would be the perfect camera setting for this event. Its pretty hard as the light-set-up changes every show. I tried shooting fast (at 4.0) but I need to raise my ISO a little bit so apologies for some grains on my shots. XD














I got more pictures than my visit last Thursday as I almost ran out of memory in my SD card. Anyway, I was able to enjoy my 2nd attendance at the Philippine Fashion Week for this year. As I went back to the office, I really enjoyed my stop there and look forward to another PFW 2011 shoot.













Anyway, here are the rest of the pictures that I took.




















Want more? Here's some more...XD




















Some more good shots. Saving the best for last XD

  8. I love the floral designs. I'm not a fashionista but those floral dresses are surely not a pain in the eyes. Any girl would love to wear those.

  9. Believe it or not, I've never attended any shows (or maybe I just have different interests now). Anyway, despite the limited space for shooting, you still captured a great set of photos. The angles seemed like you had a pretty good spot in the crowd.
