He started his Photography shooting Festivals which later on developed into his love for Landscape and Travel Photography. A Hotelier by profession, he dreams of capturing the beauty of the Philippines and promotes them through his photos. In the same way, it complements everything to what he loves and working in the Tourism and Hospitality Industry makes it a unique love affair. While not travelling, he is either shooting for Corporate Events, weddings or Portraitures.
An award winning Photographer, he joins photo contests whenever possible and constantly updates himself through Photography Workshops and reading books. Passion is what keeps him going. Always seeking new places to go and finding interesting people to shoot at. A True Lensman in the making.
At present, he is a Freelance Photographer doing CORPORATE EVENTS, WEDDINGS, PORTRAITURES and ADVERTISING.

'If You Can Keep'
A poem by Bryan Islip in support to the Photographers Bill of Rights
If you can keep your heart when all about you have lost their titles to some small print t's and c's,
If you can trust the law when lawyers doubt you, But make allowance for their fat cat pleas;
If you submit and not be beat, submitting, Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being used but don't give way to users, Nor argue much, nor talk too wise:
If you submit your work and lose its virtue, But always try to show the honest touch,
If those big businessmen can't hurt you, Though all men count with you, and truth as such;
If you can let them take your stuff and own it throughout the universe and just for fun
You lose the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a fool, my son!(With apologies to Rudyard Kipling
- the artist would have understood:'though not to Corbis, who may not yet…)
