About

Writing “about me” is the hardest part, it’s like the first day of school wherein I have to introduce myself in front of a lot of people, which I so dread. How do I write this and not come off as boring? hmmm!

Let me start off by saying hello there, thank you for visiting my website. My name is Cates, I’m from Las Pinas City but I spent my childhood mostly in Quezon City until I graduated from college. I took up Bachelor of Science Major in Business Management.

I work full time, six days a week. I created this website to serve as my creative outlet or else I’m gonna lose my mind.

Truth be told, I discovered my passion for portrait photography as well as traveling when I was already in my 20s. I guess you could say I love going to the beach. I also love exploring new things. If I’m not where I am today, I would probably be surfing the waves all day, every day. I would love to learn surfing. (maybe one day…).
