More about Alvin P....
What do you love about your job?
The connections and challenges. That rush that I feel when you meet a new client, even when it's my 3rd or 4th shoot that week. However, the bond that is made during the shoot is the best, and most accomplishing payoff when it comes to being a photographer.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
I have done many themed shoots in the past. Even when the clients or models come to the location dressed up in the attire, may not be 100% ready to play into the role, and doing my best to have them believe that they are a stranded pirate, a vampire, or a new girl/boy in the neighborhood. Using music that they enjoy and visualizing actions and having the client open up with some laughs really helps set the tone and gear them up to steal the show.

A fun fact about this photographer
I'm very fond of road trips and traveling. Only having covered the east coast, I plan to traverse the rest of the US in the next few years and hopefully continue around the world.
