Leon Jacob: 1st birthday party

NOTE: I will be alternating  between events from last year that haven't been featured on here yet and my most recent events in order to keep this blog updated with my latest work while making sure I post all my events from last year as well.


October 29, 2011
Comida China de Manila

Venue set-up: Party Boosters (c/o Jacque Tan)
Host/magician: Flooch
Additional entertainment: The Golden Show
Cake: Sugar Box (c/o Emily Uy)

Most of my clients are first-time parents, but it's always nice when old clients hire me again to photograph new members of their families. I first met Mommy Geri, Daddy Raymond, and their families when I photographed their first-born Gavin's 1st birthday party over two years ago.  Early this year, Geri emailed me again to ask if I was available to be the official photographer for their 2nd son's birthday party. Of course, I was honored to be working again with such wonderful people.:)

Below are some of my favorite shots from the party...



When I got to the venue, it was overflowing with robot-themed details!  Geri told me she bought everything online from Oriental Trading.


Of course, Jacque Tan's Party Boosters team was there to make the place even more colorful!





More cute details!


The robot cake was by Emily Uy of Sugar Box.


We took a few photos at the nearby Mom and Tina's Bakery Cafe before the party started.  I should remember to try out the place sometime.





Here's our superstar of the day!

I wanted to get a few shots of the boys, but they wouldn't sit still for me. Hehehe.  I do love this shot though.:)


Geri and the cute birthday boy whom everyone lovingly calls Binog.

They had a whole buffet table of cakes and sweets from Mom and Tina's. The whole spread looked yummy!

Some of the kids during one of the games with Kuya Gavin in the middle.


The adults enjoyed the games as well.


Even the prices were robot-themed!


Binog enjoying his lunch with everyone else.

I love this shot of Binog!


The Golden Show was also there to entertain everyone.


Candle-blowing...
