On assignment in Manila in March I was honoured to be asked to document the 75th anniversary of White Cross Orphanage. Photo’s from this event appeared in the Life style’s in Asia magazine. Without doubt, one of the most rewarding assignments I have completed.
Book Launch

Today I finally received my copy of “Araneta - A love affair with God and Country” why is that important i hear you ask. Could it be because my wife Stella was editor, and I responsible for sifting through many thousands of photos, restoring those that were earmarked for inclusion. The final book is amazing, a great story of life in the Philippines and the story of one of their most famous families.
“This book is the story of Filipinas as seen through the lives of the Aranetas, the Zaragozas, the Lopezes, the Ledesmas and other individuals of the period from the 1800s to the 1970s. This is about their passion for freedom and their love for God and country. This is the story of Filipinas as she astonishingly endured the struggle with Spain, the betrayal of the United States, the ordeal of World War II and the early years of Philippine democracy.”

September was a busy month for us, as well as our normal work, we were invited to cover three campus events put on by Jumpstart Marketing on behalf of Envision Credit Union. Over a period of two weeks our cameras were on site at Douglas College, SFU and Kwantlen in Surrey. Jumpstart over achieved their quota and we got some amazing shots.
