Perseverance is a Virtue

Victory belongs to the most persevering.

I had a blast shooting 4-5 yr old kids two days ago.
Indeed it was a challenging photoshoot but very fun.

As you all know my Ate E is in spring soccer season this year. Up until this past few weeks, it never dawn on me that in this event they will have their team pictures taken. One mother approach me if i can do it for them instead of a professional photographer [well, i've brought my camera few times during the games, maybe that's why they asked me... i think], i said sure. That's were it all started.

I am honored and excited i'll have the opportunity to experience shooting such big group.

Funny part, few days before the photoshoot i got really nervous wondering if i can provide the team [especially the parents] the right services needed in this instance. Of course, here's me scrambling around and researching in the wee hours hoping to get more information and gain enough knowledge so i can portray my role well as a photographer.

I am relieved it's done and being optimistic they will like the shots *queasy*.

Special thanks especially to hub who's been assisting me all the way [just imagine about "16" 4-5yrs old running/playing around], aileen [one of the soccer mom] who helped me babysit Baby E in the field while i was busy doing the shoot and other moms and dads who take turns as well, to the team coaches and assistant for organizing the team well, and last but not the least my Jaguar players and models for trying their best to be patient and natural in front of the camera --- I am so proud of you *group hug*.
