I and Jump had already planned this shoot a month ago. The last time we had shoot was in 2014. So I thought this wasn’t going to push through since weather was still bad the night before. Though it was a bit rainy that day, good thing, the sun was up. 
 
  

Place of shoot was at QC Circle. Though there were a lot of shoots taken at QC Circle before, I have NEVER had a shoot here. Jump says that he chose this place as he misses to shoot at QC Circle. Shoot started at around 2-3pm already.

Here’s some of my BTS:
  
 
 
 
 
 

Finally made a Behind the Scenes video here :)

Btw, here are some of the final photos he uploaded.

Last weekend, after so many attempts to do this shoot, finally, had a shoot with some friends from the cosplay community.

Night before the shoot, the weather was already rainy. This shoot was planned a month ago so I was kinda worried that this might not push through. The call time was at 1pm at BGC but ended up going at around 2-3pm due to heavy rains. Going to BGC from Marikina takes around 45minutes without the traffic but since it's the holiday season, it took us 1 1/2 just to get to BGC. Traffic in Manila is really worst!!!

Anyway, while waiting for others, we ate at Wendy's first. My contact photographer (Luis), texted me that the "other photog" was already in Market Market and was going to see us first. So when I saw a familiar face coming in at Wendy's, I was kinda hesitant to come forward and greet Gummy Ralph! Yes it's Ralph Abellera, my cosplay-friend-photog which I haven't seen since 2014? He's finally back! Haha Then came Dhee, another cosplay friend from Australia which I last saw in 2011 I think. She came along with her bf, Ros. We went to their condo while waiting for Luis, which I only met personally that night. Shoot started at 7PM due to the rain.

Here are some of the BTS shoots that night
  
 
 
Shoot was a success despite the rainy weather. The original peg was bohemian fashion but end up with cold outfit peg to match the weather. Originally, it was supposed to be a daylight shoot but end up with a night time shoot. I was so happy to try a very different shoot. I and Ralph had shoots before while it was my first time to shoot with Luis. Already seen some of the raw shoots from the Luis and Ralph's camera and I was impressed by the shots taken. Both are really great. :))

Here are some of the final shots taken that night:

I want to thank everyone that night. Really had fun! Hope to see you all again soon :))

After my shoot a few days ago, my cosplay photographer friend suggested to dine in at Circle's Cafe located at QC Circle. Having no idea of what the place serves, I gamely agreed to try the place for the first time.
  

Place can accommodate maybe 20-25 persons, quite spacious. It is small, comfy and cozy. It's really a great place to dine and and chill.
 
  
 
 
 

Here's the menu:
   
  
  

Here's what we ordered: 

Beef Tapa (Php130)
  
 
- Their beef tapa is very soft and chewy, combined with tomatoes and egg, just perfect for my taste.

Pork Binagoongan (Php130) 
  
 

Lukban or Vigan? Longganisa with unlimited house blend juice (Php170)
  
 

Matcha Green Tea (Php145)
   
- As a matcha lover, their matcha green tea is tastes perfect, not too sweet for me.

 
Actually, I wanna thank Jump for suggesting us this cafe in QC Circle. If you wanna chill after walking or going to QC Circle, you might wanna drop by this nice cafe. Totally recommended! :)

On one stormy evening, we accidentally came across a newly opened food spot, Karnevore in Marikina. We didn't have any idea of this place but since I'm fond of trying new stuffs, we excitedly dined at this place.
  
Place is located at the back of Yellow Cab or McDo Marcos Highway. It isn't really that hard to find.

To have an idea of what they served, a menu board was placed outside. Grill. Steak. Pasta. Chill. Those words came into my mind when I saw the menu. Sounds yummy! So we decided to dine at this place.
  

Upon entering, the staffs were very accommodating to us. They were friendly and helped with our seats.
  
 
Menu was placed on the counter. They served steaks, pasta, sausages and some alcoholic drinks. Actually, we really had a hard time choosing what to eat since there were really a lot to choose from.

Here's the menu: 
  
 
 

We decided to try their one of their best sellers.

Savory Porterhouse Steak (Php185)
"A chunk of flavorful Porterhouse steak seasoned and cooked the Karnevore way. Served with a choice of Umami corn, Robuchon potato, or plain rice"
  
 
- Their own version of the Porterhouse steak is really yummy and tender. Servings of steak were thick and really enough for me. Thing I didn't like is their gravy/sauce since it taste is too bland for me.


Spicy Buttered Pork Ribs (Php195)
"Crisp and succulent buttery pork ribs in spices, herbs and crunchies"
  
 
- The combination of spicy and butter flavored pork ribs are a must try! It tastes sweet and spicy at that same time. Very flavorful.

Please take note that there is a 5% service charge.

 
If you're looking for a good place to eat steaks and chill out with your friends, I think Karnevore is definitely the best place to be. :)

Karnevore
Located at: Pitpitan corner Gunting St., San Roque Marikina (at the back of Yellow Cab/McDo Marcos Highway)
