Anne Curtis is undeniably among the stars who has mastered the art of photographing everyday moments. Think more of her ever-popular beauty shots, behind-the-scenes stories, and off-camera life—a peak in her feed showcases a balance of well-executed photos that still feels authentic. So what makes her capture-ready at any time? Her favorite phone of choice, the vivo v30 Pro.
Her go-to partner
“The vivo V30 Series is truly exceptional,” Anne Curtis expressed in the recently concluded grand launch event at The Manila Hotel. The multi-hyphenate star, accompanied by her trusty vivo V30 Pro, made a grand entrance into the ballroom and captured the moment with a selfie alongside the vibrant audience. The night, of course, is as historical in the tech world as it sounds considering that it concludes the brand’s three-year hiatus. Even better, it is in collaboration with the optics leader, ZEISS.
Heralded as a revolutionary advancement in mobile photography, the vivo V30 Series is set to snap every life moment with unmatched clarity and detail. “The capabilities are unmatched, allowing me to capture every detail and emotion effortlessly,” Anne Curtis said.
On her best-kept selfie hacks
“Natural lighting is everything,” Anne Curtis pointed out, detailing how the vivo V30 Series provides the same effect anytime and anywhere. Mastering the right angle is everything. As for her top recommendation? A top-down angle. “It creates an illusion of having a slimmer face! I always love taking a selfie from this angle.”
On an expert’s point of view
Alongside Anne Curtis, the event also featured insights from industry experts including Marisa Weis, representing ZEISS, Keshav Chugh, vivo’s Image Cognition expert, and Art Samaniego, Senior Technology Officer at Manila Bulletin, shedding light on the innovative features of the vivo V30 Series.
Chugh, for one, championed the Aura Light 3.0, a powerful light-filling tool exclusive to vivo. “You go to nightclubs, restaurants, and bars which have very challenging lights. Any camera will struggle in these challenging scenarios, so we try to solve this problem with the third generation of the Aura Light Portrait,” he shared.
Meanwhile, Weis praised the consumer market’s take on capturing moments. “The Philippines is such a vibrant emerging consumer market, and a market we firmly believe has great potential, especially in portrait photography,” she said. “The goal of our joint development is nothing less than enabling users to create pro-level portraits.“
