AS A PHOTOGRAPHER
From the very start of who he was, it highlighted his journey as a photographer. Fascinated by the beauty of the pictures in memory, lights and shadows, and different crafts of nature and man, he believes that these has contributed to his manner of how he does things and capture it. Founded the Portrata Club on February 2015, an organization where members are aspiring models and photographers. He is the creator of the Training Matrix in Media Arts of the Philippine Arts and Culture Educators' Society that is used in National Workshops held by the Bulwagang Filipino Theater Guild and PACES in cooperation with the Department of Education and different Local Government in the Philippines. He believes that photography can be an instrument of strengthening bonds, repairing broken chains of relationship, fill a hungry nostalgic mind, tap the back of a broken heart, dream a dream, and at its simplest, it creates fun.

My feed has been so full of heartbreaking news lately and there has been so much frustration in my life as well. ☹️

I wish I can say that the stretching ends (it really doesn’t, some days are just easier).

But no matter how stretched you feel - keep on having hope.

Take it one tug at a time.
One “I’ll choose love” each day.
Make each stretch count and meaningful.

And a year from now, I hope to look back and see how much we’ve grown. 🤗

"Unang una, nagpapasalamat ako sa panginoon dahil pinagtagpo niya tayo nang maaga, ikaw ang nagbigay ligaya sa bawat umaga na naglalaro tayo sa kalsada...

"Nagpapasalamat ako na pinaglayo niya tayo noong tayo'y nagbibinata't dalaga, dahil ibinigay muna sa atin ng panginoon ang kanya-kanyang buhay ma dapat nating danasin at maranasan... kasabay ng pagtanda...

"Nagpapasalamat ako at tayo ay kanyang tinadhana, dininig sa atin ang pagkakataon na tayo'y magkasama muli na may baun-baong karanasan na magpapatibay ng ating samahan." - Jordan

"Thank you for everything specially for your endless love and support...

"God has able to do far more abundantly spell all what we can ask or think, because I get to may my childhood friend and a truly godly man." - Eri

Ang Buhay ay Parang Orasan
sa panulat nina Eri Yamada and Jhen Maño

Ang buhay ay parang orasan
Paulit-ulit umiikot ang mga kamay
Paulit-ulit ginagawa ang mga bagay
Pero kahit paulit-ulit, araw araw tayong tumatanda

Habang tumatanda, marami tayong nakakasalamuhang tao
Panibagong kaibigan, panibagong karanasan
Pero hindi natin alam kung hanggang kailan natin sila makakasama sa buhay natin

Minsan, panandalian lang dadaan sa ating buhay
Minsan, huli na natin nakilala pero hanggang dulo pala natin makakasama
Minsan, maaga tayo pinagtapo, pero pinaghiwalay din agad,
Hindi kanais-nais, ipagtatagpo tayo ulit sa dulo

Sa dami na nating nakilalang tao, hindi na natin malaman kung sino ang para sa atin
Ito na kaya? Siya na kaya?
Hanap tayo ng hanap hanggang sa umabot na tayo sa malayong lugar
Sa di inaasahan, nasa tabi lang pala ang hinahanap ko
Kaya ang swerte ko pala na sa dinami-rami ng nakasalamuha ko, nakilala ko,
ikaw parin ang tinadhana para sa akin.
Tayo pa rin ang pinagtagpo

Yung dati kalaro ko lang
Yung dati kapareha ko lang sa sagala
Yung dati katuwang ko sa abay ng kasal
Yung dati kababata ko lang

Yung dating bumubuo at kumukumpleto ng araw ko sa tuwing maglalaro kami
Ay siya na rin palang makakasama ko sa pagbuo ng pamilya.

Napagtanto ko na sa haba-haba ng prusisyon natin, ay sa simbahan din pala ang tuloy natin.
