Still a bachelor at 28, Am Leo B. Concepcion earned his degree in Nursing from St. Gabriel College in 2006.

Am started embracing photography as a hobby when he was 27 years old. “I want to have a great hobby for a decade now until I bumped up viewing things around in a different perspective. For almost one and a half year, I was inspired by my brother and introduced photography as an interesting leisure that puts a lot of creativity,” said Am.

He was born on October 28, 1981 and enjoyed his childhood life here in Aklan. Making people laugh is part of his daily routine and playing guitar while signing to entertain himself is a priceless time for him.

He loves to travel. Rice fields, falls, nature and active children fascinate this man. He collects pictures and images not for commercial purposes but simply for the love of them. “Like any other ordinary men, I am fond of motorbikes and cars so I often drive during weekends and appreciate locations from one place to another,” he further said.

Since traveling is not that expensive nowadays, photography complements to freeze precious scenes while he’s off outside. Taking photos is just in time!
