Fashion: CHRISTIAN BAUTISTA: THE ROMANTIC BALLADEER

Album Cover for "OUTBOUND"

Photographer: Pat Dy

Stylist: Ray Ilagan

Hairstylist: Nelson Cruz

Fresh from the success of the "Kitchen Musical", I had the opportunity to work with Christian Bautista whose talents and artistry has been showcased  in the said series. (And not to mention he is also a famous artist not only here in Phils. but also to other Asian countries such as Singapore and Indonesia.

We first had the shoot for the album cover which was held at Intramuros. It took us almost the entire day and it was tiring I should say but not because of the shoot itself but rather Nelson and I had so much fun loving the camera as we strike a pose in every beautiful and historic scenes in the said location.

Days after the album cover shoot we then had the music video shoot held as well at Intramuros. We had some concerns/problem with regard to the meeting time at first (esp that i had a shoot as well with Christian and other artist the night before until almost midnight) but thanks to Louie everything was settled down accordingly.

Applying makeup on male clients is not as easy as it looks especially if it will be for a video. It will either make the client look masculine, flawless, and natural or feminine and skin looking dirty and with makeup on(which all men I've worked or haven't worked with would not want to). So application of makeup must be carefully done from foundation, powder, bronzer, lip product, etc.

Even though the video shoot took over until sunrise, it was very satisfying not only after seeing the outcome but most especially it's the opportunity that you get to work with people who make a name for our country because of their talents and artistry. 

P.S.: I can attest that Christian is serious with improving his dancing skills and I can say all efforts paid off!! Congrats Ian for nailing those dance steps and to the success of this album! 


Kudos to you and to the Universal Records family!
