About me, Bless Afable, UK Photographer, Wedding Photographer, Wedding Videographer

My career includes long years in the field of photography but even before then in college I was sent to inter-university competitions in photojournalism (and did won some major prizes) and aside from that, I assisted taking photos of weddings from time to time to earn extra money to help me with my schooling (as Fine Arts major in Advertising) and that was in my teenage years. Then after college I assisted prime photographers in the big city doing fashion, celebrity, product and lifestyle photography for magazines and advertising. From those experiences I was able to apply and get hired as a photographer in one of the biggest cruise ship companies in the world and traveled abroad. A few years later, I secured myself a land-based job in Dubai as an in-house photographer for one of the high-end household and furniture retail companies in the region doing Product and Interior photography also doing weddings, events and family portraits on the side.

And now I am here in England, UK continuing this saga but this time also doing videography and open to any project locally or abroad.

^{As an assistant to the photographer I helped set up the lighting and I always stood in as a mock-up model to make sure that by the time the subject (model/celebrity) was actually there, only very minor adjustments would be needed. As you can see, I loved that rim of lights around me.}

When not doing filming (photo/video) I love to indulge myself making floor plans, interior and rendering perspective. Also, when strongly inspired I conceptualise compositions to painting. I get a good thrill flying drones and travelling.
