Ayala Avenue E-Session FTW!!

Last Sunday, we finally had our most awaited e-session in Makati City.

I remember when Jam and I would talk that we want to have pictures taken of us at the middle of Ayala Avenue. Hehe! We told this story to our photographer friend, Rogie, hoping that we can indeed pull it off.

He said, it was possible, but we need to shoot at dead of the night, meaning when the roving security guards are all sleeping. Hahaha. So we took it, this is once in a lifetime right?




Our call time was 2AM, with our ever loyal friends (Thank you again Yho and She!!) acting as our backup photographers and make up artist, we left San Pedro past 2AM and arrived at Makati before 3AM. We had a hard time finding a parking lot that is open, eventually finding one behind Convergys along Dela Rosa St. after a couple of minutes arguing where we should leave our car. hehe.

We also met a friend of Yho, who was visiting from Cebu and is also an avid photographer. He wanted to join in our "pictorial" and of course, who are we to say no to free pictures. :)

We parked, changed clothes (Rogie said we should be on our "casual" clothes so as not to get the attention of the guards roaming around )) and put on some makeup. We walked along Ayala, finding spots where we can have a pictorial (re: no roving guards. Hahaha!).

It was an amazing experience! I was trying hard not to peek at the pictures that Rogie was taking since I wanted it all to be a surprise. I only saw a couple of pics, and the only thing I can say is that I can't wait to see the rest!

We managed to get pictures in underpass, along Ayala Avenue with buses and jeepneys passing behind us and on other areas in Ayala Ave.  We also managed to get a couple of pics inside a 7-11 store when we were buying water for the group. Haha!

So there, for those who are thinking of doing the same thing. It is possible, you just need a little sacrifice by waking up really really early to get good pictures. Hehe! And for those who are wondering, no, we did not even try to get a permit cause I know it would just be hopeless..

And besides, it was more exciting to take pictures beside a sleeping security guard. LOL.

* Will post pictures once we get them!
