I'm Mariano Sayno, a designer and photographer based in Manila. For over 22 years, I've had the privilege of capturing the beauty that exists within the Philippines. It has been an incredible journey, taking me to various rural and remote areas, where I've discovered the unique and diverse charm of this nation.

As a visual storyteller, I am constantly fascinated by the visual allure of the Philippines. My goal is to bring out the inherent beauty in everything I photograph. Whether it's the breathtaking landscapes or the vibrant heritage, I strive to capture what makes each subject truly stunning.

But it's not just the external features that make this land beautiful. It's the people as well. The faces I've encountered throughout my travels have taught me that the true beauty of a nation lies within its individuals. It's a reminder that we all possess something special that adds to the collective allure of our country.

I invite you to witness this beauty for yourself. Explore the Philippines, be inspired by its people, and marvel at its many sights. Just as I am constantly inspired by this land, I have no doubt that you too will discover the captivating beauty that resides within its shores.
