SMaRS Adventure 2: Lunch and Shoot

Hey peeps! So my Ate (big), Carla, and I just attempted to do a photo shoot this past Saturday in a few locations we love around the area. First disaster of the day, it began to rain as we were driving out to our first stop at the Black Bean Deli, which was next to this building with a pretty all-pink wall that we wanted to use in our shoot. We were so bummed out that we got all done up just for it to get humid and gray on us. Next thing we knew, we both realized we had forgotten our Instax Mini 8 cameras at home. Even though, they're not the easiest pictures to post online, it's nice to have a memory kept on a tangible film. To bring us even closer to tears, Carla had left her memory card for the DSLR camera at home, too! It was one devastating thing after another, but we turned the day around by making use of our phones and the elements.

Pictured in this tasty-looking photo is the Pan Con Lechon sandwich. I love pork, and this was to die for! It was hearty and so very savory all at once. (P.S.: This was my first time eating at the BBD) The dessert was their Espresso Flan. As a Filipina, I personally really enjoy flan. And the fact that this had a coffee flavor in it topped it all off. Every bite was heaven in my mouth!

 It was so fun trying to pose and take photos of each other. It's definitely a lot more work than I expected. I've always wanted to be in photo shoots, so I'm really happy I got to share this with my big. Although we didn't get to take the photos with the DSLR like we wanted, we were pretty excited with how some of the ones from our phones came out.

As always, I'm happy to share my new adventures with you and I hope to be posting many more very soon!

From yours truly, DancingMermaid1920s
