My Story
My name is AJ. No, it's not short for anything. It's just AJ. But I do like to call myself AJ Apple Juice as a joke. Get it? Apple Juice (AJ)?
No? Okay I'm done… 😁
Originally from Vigan City, Philippines, I moved here to Ottawa in 2015 and have been living here ever since. Unlike most, I did not start off with a camera. I actually started using drones in 2024 before picking up my first camera. My passion started with taking pictures and videos of nature. But then, I decided that I wanted to do it more seriously, so I bought my first camera at the start of 2025. I started taking pictures/videos of not only people, but other stuff as well. With the right motivation, I have since drastically improved my portfolio in a relatively short amount of time as opposed to others who would have taken years to develop.
I’ve already worked with many different clients and businesses including real estate, food, festivals, government, and artists in the music industry. I also work in a social media marketing agency and help promote other businesses.
A Little About Me
I am the type of person who likes to go on outside adventures. Rain or shine, hot or cold, I'm always outside wielding my camera around and a heavy backpack that's bigger than me! I don't get sick of it (I got a good immune system 😀).
Thankfully, I'm not shy. So if you like people who talk a lot and crack random jokes, then you’ve found the right person! If not, too bad! But I'll still make ya look good!
