It was not a bright sunny day, but still, we’ve decided to have a “Fun Shoot” for Baby Zee’s First Birthday Invitation and for a mom’s purpose of documenting every first of her son.
Things needed:
- Camera (We used our photobooth DSLR)
- Props (We used Balloons, Chalkboard Facts about Zee, Outfit sets for baby)
- Nice and Near Venue (Taken at Luneta, Manila City)
- Assistant (my sister, Rina)
- Stylist (yours truly hihi ^^)
- Photographer (didi “daddy”)
- Subject (Baby Zee – the birthday boy!)
Total Savings:
PHP 4,000 (Outside studio photo shoot cost around PHP 5,000, but since we ate dinner, pay the entrance {Children’s Playground}, gasoline and toll fees expenses we have around PHP 1,000 expenses that day, not bad.. right?)
Here are some tips if you’re planning to have a DIY photoshoot with your little one:
It is important to determine his happy time 🙂
You don’t need to be a photo shop savvy, there are many photo editing websites now 🙂
 don’t forget to have fun 🙂 let your little one enjoy the moment and explore the world..
I love this set (but sad that its kinda blurred)Â
use cute props…
And don’t forget to have a family portrait..
Oopps.. and have a “theme” In our case, our concept is COLORS + Nature 🙂
Sharing with you this quote that I’ve read before:
 “You don’t capture photograph, you make” 🙂
“Celebrate Life, Today is Special”  Psalm 118:24










What a huge savings there Mommy Gracie! How much is your photobooth service pala? =)
