SOX PHotographer of the Week:
Zeffrelli "Ping" Zerrudo
Self-taught in photography, freelance photographer Zeffrelli "Ping" Zerrudo from City of Tacurong is this week's SOX PHotographer of the Week. He's one of the most passionate photographers in the region and is one of the few who's very active in sharing his works in social media.
Ping Zerrudo started in photography four (4) years ago after having been influenced by his nephew and mentor Pop Punzalan who is now based in the United States.
He is into wedding photography and covering events like festivals.
"I also love shooting nature and still practicing bird photography."
Some of Ping's works can be seen below.
My dream is to have a house beside a beach, even just a little shack. Wake up in that quite place, breathe fresh air and have coffee while enjoying the sceneries.
