Description i shot veteran cosplayer and progeny guitarist hazel velas for a magazine. this wasn't approved by the publisher, so we had to reshoot with a different, errr, preppy concept.
i liked this shoot better.

location: lawton underpass.
great place to shoot as long as you keep your presence of mind and work really fast.

oh, btw, J-rock fans... that's an original fernandes mockingbird hide/x-japan signature model.
i tested it after the shoot and all i can say is that the guitar is a monster!

medyo mukha ngang abandoned.
pero kahit na, alam mo naman sa Pilipinas, nagkalat ang mga tao.
hehe.

it's still a good shot nonetheless.

I love the way the vivid colurs from the outfit clash with the dull colours of the background.

sa lawton bro.
pinaka last na underpass malapit sa letran.
sarap tirahin ng graffitti kasi wala dumadaan.

actually hazel is quite hard to pose.
heh heh.
but with more specific directions, it turned out good.
but ive been reviewing my past shoots with her
and i seem to have found her good angles.

yan yung mipnakamaiksing underpass, yung walang dumadaan at may mga nakatira sa ilalim. a good place to bomb though.
