Photographer’s Note

Let-Let is a child who lives on the same street I do when I'm in Cebu.

Along with her sister Lisa, they're some of the happiest & most expresive children I've ever seen, dispite the fact their family is quite poor - I saw them every day as I walked up my street; they only speak a few words of English, yet always ran over to hi-five me, and to say "good morning kuyajames; good evening kuyajames..."

The Family lives in a very simple wood & pressboard dwelling at the roadside; no running water - but they do have electricity, and a very loud TV/videoke setup which the whole Family enjoys.....Lisa & Let-Let have 5 other brothers & sisters.

Hello Paul,
Besides the composition and conveyance of joy I love the colours here, they work very well together! Filipino kids are dream subjects for those who like to take expressive pictures...
