Yesterday: “I Rise at the Caress of a Kindred Spirit” by Valerie Chua on cotton paper using Clinique products
The sun was blazing, the skies were vivid and the wind was blowing… I guess God approved of our shoot. He even sent a rainbow.

Muse of the Moment: Charo Ronquillo
She was just 17 when Charo won the Ford Supermodel of the World Philippines. She then went on to compete in the World Finals the year after, bagging third place. Since then, Charo has been living in New York City, where she has gotten numerous projects including walking in the NYFW shows of Tory Burch, Sisley and BCBG among others.
I was fortunate enough to have worked with Charo while I was still in Mega. She was one of the three supermodels who graced our June cover and the shoot was one of the most seamless, easiest I’ve been in. Charo is just stunningly beautiful. The soft look that she naturally projects turns into a strong statement by the mere adjustment of her stare’s intensity. There is a certain confidence, probably due to NYC, even when Charo is off-camera — She moves effortlessly, talks candidly; her smile can make even the coldest heart melt.
