Filipino Photographers in South Korea to some may just be a club of hobbyist photographers, but numerous members are taking it to the next level and that is …… getting to the photography business itself.

Photography requires skill and passion, it’s not just having that latest cameras and gears out there, you should also be buckled up with knowledge and mastery… and if you do that is clearly an edge to this feat. Anyone can be a photographer but it takes time to master. That is why workshops and photo shoots are provided for FILIPOS members.

Having an owned business might be an ultimate dream of an overseas Filipino worker…. well, who doesn’t anyway? After long years of hard work and being away from our family we must have one to start with.
