Real nice smile from a professional model, actress and TV host.

I got the chance to meet in person the famous Film and TV actress, model and host, Miss Hazel Reyes, a.k.a. Ara Mina in the film industry. Her nice smile made everyone in the room felt comfortable with her as she is as composed and ever friendly to all that she meets in our club.

Ara attended our Camera Club of the Philippines' monthly meeting where she was invited as a guest model for the month of April. She showed her professionalism not only in the way she had posed for the photographers, but in the way she handled herself in front of all members, who are of different professions and status levels. She was in command that night, capturing the crowd in awe, who pointed their lenses at this graceful, lovely composed lady.

Being a good conversationalist, Ara answered all trivial questions about her professional life, and took the cautious humor trusted at her. She is quick and witty and a real pro at it, while maintaining her composure.

The club members rewarded her with great respect, and even invited her to join the club if and when she really takes photography as a serious hobby. Bien Bautista even states "it won't be difficult to join and particpate, as now now the club has started accepting female members.
