Chito Cleofas went through the discriminating eyes of Manila’s photo and art critics and mentors to become what he is today. Before turning pro, he topped over a hundred national and international photo competitions.
Almost anybody can be trained to “cover” a wedding, but only a handful have the talent and artistic flair to deliver photographs that go beyond a literal visual transcription of the event. Chito Cleofas is one of them.
Chito’s photographs have appeared on the covers of expensive books and in glossy magazines. A contest entry was unanimously chosen for the cover of Flowers of Baguio by its New York-based author, Reynaldo Alejandro, and the local publisher; another photograph landed on the cover of Visions of the Possible by well-known writer and critic Felice Sta. Maria. Chito has also been published in the award-winning Philippines Yearbook, Mega magazine,Mirror magazine,Mabuhay magazine and El Nido USAID.
He is a board member of the Wedding and Portrait Photographers of the Philippines, an association composed exclusively of professionals in the field.
