IN THIS ADVERTORIAL IN PARTNER- SHIP WITH HYUNDAI PHILIPPINES, I imagined a foretold plane where nature and Hyundai's technology live side-by- side with no compromise. Inspired by the company's vision entitled "Progress for Humanity," we placed one of the compa- ny's hybrid electric vehicles, the Hyund- ai Santa Fe in a dense evergreen forest alongside a model dressed for the distant future. Imparting the claim that Hyundai's innovation will not only physically move humanity, but also move them to a time where the grass is greener.

IN THIS ADVERTORIAL IN PARTNER- SHIP WITH VASELINE PHILIPPINES, we spotlight five models and their skin stories, letting them be known, out in the sunlight. The concept takes from Vaseline's Gluta HYA lotion, its irides- cence, and its glow. Just like these aspects, we dress the models in loose primary-colored monochromatic linens and bask them in the sunlight, reveal- ing their radiant skin.

IN THIS ADVERTORIAL IN PARTNER- SHIP WITH THE JEWELRY BRAND, DIAGOLD, we view the gems and cou- ture in its natural habitat. Cebu is the birthplace of both the brand and their partnered designer, Cary Santiago. His work heavily involves bird motifs, while DiaGold designs revolve around dia- monds. Which is why I decided to place them in an organic environment where both design aspects would naturally be seen, added to the homeplace factor.
