My multi-tasker friend of a Fashion Photographer Michael Davantes had a shoot for the Francis Libiran and pieces in the designer’s “100 Collection” as worn by some of the guys from Misters of the Philippines 2014 including Mister Global Philippines 2014 Joseph Doruelo and semifinalist Elvin Tiel. Check out his other works HERE. Now since this post is really more about Michael Davantes, allow me to segue the focus to this brilliant man. You should know that – aside from being an excellent fashion lensman – he is also a Talent Manager/Discoverer (he gets the bragging rights for Eian Scully – the international endorser of 2xist underwear – who is currently one of the top male models in the world), TV host (for Mabuhay Montreal TV) and a staunch supporter of Misters/The Mister Filipinas Search 2015 (even as far back as last year when it was still called Misters of the Philippines) .
“I do admire PEPPS, the producer of Misters “The Mister Filipinas Search”, for the fact that this organization is not just about finding the best Filipinos to represent the biggest male pageants in the world. They are also genuinely concerned about the careers of their Misters so that they sought my help, having the experience of managing top international models. PEPPS is in pursuit of providing career opportunities to their “Misters” – not just locally but globally as well. So I try to help as much as I can.” stated Michael.
With Michael Davantes giving his 100% support to Misters 2015, the upcoming edition of the country’s biggest male pageant will definitely exceed the last – both in quality and post-pageant opportunities for the winners. And add to that my commitment to PEPPS, this blog’s coverage will be the most extensive yet. 😀
