Just a mix of content I shot for Balenciaga Philippines from S/S 17 to F/W 18. All these were shot in store or within the vicinity of 8 Rockwell (with the exception of one photo shot in Greenbelt).

Models: Juan Villalobos from Elite, Alexandra Aguirre, Shayna Cua, and Nigel Garcia

I remember ranting to my bestfriend on the first day of the year that I was bored like crazy and I needed a massive change of scenery.

I was honestly complaining about not taking enough photos but here we are, sifting through hundreds of them...
