ANALYSIS: Mr. Manlangit, for us, is an artist. Even though his creations are in fixed price and his works are not publicly displayed, he has eyes for artistically beautiful photographs. When he showed us his works, we were in awe for the magnificence of real pictures. Nowadays, pictures are often edited too much which brings the scene unreal. Instead of finding photoshopped works, Mr. Manlangits fi nished works are truly genuine and flawless. For someone who is in the field of digital media, he is one of those old-fashioned photographers who rely mostly on the subject and not on his editing software. Another thing that makes him an artist is his style of making his models stood out even though the background and surrounding will make one breathless. We noticed that all his works contains breath-taking scenes from the nature but not as focused as were the models. His eye for a magnificent photograph makes him an artist.

COMMENTS ON HIS WORKS: A photograph is a paused memory we can never bring back again. Seeing Mr. Manlangits works, you will feel like you were part of the celebrations where he took the pictures. Everything was caught and placed into a photograph. The scenery and the smiles of the people that were in the pictures he took were all very genuine and unique. The wedding he captured has shown the moments of wonderful love stories and uniqueness in every relationship. Every photo is beautiful and captivating.
