Model Shoot: Sarah Estoque – Part 2

Mikey Yan — Sun, 17 Jan 2010 04:48:46 +0000

Some ducks have all the luck. We don’t know if that makes sense at all or if that has anything to do with what we’re about to show you. But we sure got lucky finding a lady as pretty and as hot as Sarah Estoque. We stumbled upon her browsing one of many online girly sites. (Yeah yeah, just like any other hot blooded male out there.) Based in St Louis, MO, Sarah is a student studying Psychology at UMSL who models as a hobby. She can speak four languages as well, such as English, Filipino (Tagalog and Bisaya), Russian, and Spanish. She has been featured in local men’s magazines here in the Philippines, and has more upcoming local features this year as well. As luck would have it, we found out that she was visiting the Philippines for the holidays to visit family. A few messages later, thanks to modeling network sites, we were finally able to schedule a shoot with her here in the Philippines. Part one of our shoot with Sarah was a Christmas themed shoot. For this round though, we’ll be turning up the heat as we show you the other three sets we did with Sarah, shot in different locations in Makati, Philippines. True to her word, she really is like a chameleon, as you can see how her look changes between each set: from our initial wholesome Christmas shoot with her, to the sultry hot chick you have no chance of getting. It was a pleasure working with her, since she was easy to work with and showed professionalism. Thanks for teaching us a little bit of Bisaya. Now we know how to properly disrespect a woman who speaks the dialect. Hehe, here’s to our next language tutorial. We hope you enjoyed your recent holiday vacation here.

Mikey Yan — Tue, 22 Dec 2009 01:24:04 +0000

Its that time of the year again folks! In tune with the season, we here at Madlight have done another Christmas themed shoot. This time, Santa’s little helper is Sarah Estoque, a beautiful Filipina hailing from Butuan, Philippines, but is currently based in Missouri. She decided to visit her hometown, since we all know Christmas isn’t the same without family. Stay tuned for more from Sarah’s shoot with us. We promise you won’t be disappointed. A Merry Christmas to all of you!

Crumpler Beer for Bags Promo and Afterparty Event @ Warehouse 135

Crumpler, the Australian based bag company that specializes in stylish messenger bags with their wacky names that we know and love, finally brings their Beer for Bags promotion to the Philippines, the first ever in Asia. For those that can’t quite grasp the concept, you basically bring in beer in exchange for bags. Crumpler would post online what specific beer brands they were looking for and the amount of bottles/cans required, in exchange for a specific bag. The total cost of the beer bought would normally end up being cheaper than the retail price of the bag. The beer brought in was then served to those who availed of the promotion at a party after the event.

Madlightmedia, being the alcohol lovers and cheapskates that we are, decided to check out the promo held at the Crumpler store in Bonifacio High Street and joined in on the fun.We traded in a few six-packs of Corona and San Miguel beer cans and got ourselves a Barney Rustle Blanket Messenger Bag. We then went to the afterparty held at Warehouse 135 in Makati and enjoyed ourselves with free booze and chips while being entertained by Grupo Tribale. There were also contests held at the event where bags were given away by the event’s hosts, DJ Mo Twister and DJ Grace Lee of Magic 89.9, and funnyman Gabe Mercado. The event was also attended by Krista Ranillo, recent cover girl for FHM and Maxim Philippines. All attendees were given the red carpet treatment, where they had fun with a photobooth setup in the front.

At the end of the day, Crumpler’s first Beer for Bags Promo in the Philippines was a success. Heck, where else can you trade in beers for a bag, and then get to party for free?

Madlightmedia.com again brings you coverage from the hippest events. “Hear to Heal”, a fundraiser event, is a fashion show and concert in one, for the benefit of Gawad Kalinga, a non-profit service oriented organization, and Alpha Delta Mu Sorority’s Medical Missions. Held at Warehouse 135 in Makati City, sponsors for the event were Burger King, San Miguel, L’Oreal, Garnier, Magic 89.9, Pierre & Arrastre & Stevedoring Services inc. Co-sponsors for the event were MILCU and Jagermeister, with Jagermeister handing out drinks for everybody with their Jagermeisterettes. The fashion show involved some of the local designers like Archipelago, Happy Days shirts, and Plueys Manila, with students from the University of Santo Tomas Faculty of Medicine and Surgery to showcase their designs. Local bands provided entertainment for the night, namely Urban Dub, Salamin, Protein Shake, Aurora, and Happy Hector, a band composed of students from the UST Medicine faculty. Judging from the looks of the coverage we took, it seems like the event was a success.
