Thank you for visiting!

My name is Joan Solitario and I'm a photographer :)

I did not find photography and photography did not find me. Instead, I believe it was a gift from God. He gave me the opportunity to learn photography so that I can help people capture their memories. Most of all, I can use this gift for His glory.

Photography has given me the opportunity to meet and get to know so many wonderful people! It has also given me the opportunity to photograph events that has helped in strengthening my faith. These events have also given me inspiration and memories that will truly last a lifetime! Hopefully, I can inspire someone by sharing these memories through my posts.

I believe that everything that has happened in my life; everything that I have experienced; and every single person that I have met in my life were all part of God's plan for me. So, unto Him, I return all praise, honor, and glory.

Myra A - Same as you…Almost…See’s gift certificate. Want some chocolates? Or caramel chews?

Saskia - found an old motorola analog flip phone circa mid to late 90’s. (please do not laugh! *ahahahahha*). those mobiles where the iphone of that era. *hahaha*

thought nothing more of it than just a retro non working mobile. perused through my contacts list…and there it was … one of my best mate’s (since grammar school) phone number i’ve been scouring every single chance i’ve had. *whew* he was a hottie! *giggles* wait! i meant… he’s such a fantastic mate! =P Since then… we corresponde and link up every chance we’ve got!

*hurrah* for summer cleaning!

Milady Franco - While cleaning around the house, I found my grandfather’s old briefcase in the closet. He passed away more than 10 years ago. The briefcase was filled with old documents, pictures, and such. However, the most intriguing part of the briefcase was that there was $500 worth of money in an envelope. I suppose my grandfather had no intention on spending it, or just simply saving it.

Jen - The coolest thing I found while cleaning the house was a World War one rifle. It was wrapped in plastic and kept in a storage area so I guess the previous owners forget it.

Noel Tampon - I found 2 of my old Gameboy “Bricks” and they both still work! :D

Grae - It’s both cool and weird! We acquired a bed frame from the warehouse with 4 pillar-esques on each side. One time, my mom and I were cleaning my room and decided to put those roach balls on every nook and cranny possible. I checked one of those gold colored ornaments on the bed frame and one of them was unhinged already. Crammed inside were love notes from the original owner. It was dated 4 years ago and the contents made me go aww and wince at the same time hahaha!

Joan - Jan Michael: LOL!! I wish I was able to keep all of my wisdom tooth, but they had to cut it up to get it removed :P.

Jan Michael Duya - The weirdest thing i found when i was cleaning my room before i moved out for college was an ice breakers mints box with my wisdom teeth in it! YUP all 4. hehe. pretty gross but also exciting. =) lol.

Joan - PJ: COOOL! That is awesome! Did you find out how much it was worth!?

PJ Inthara - i found a 1897 dollar coin in my box of old coins! while throwing out old stuff from my garage!

PERSONAL: I WON!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!
