Camerahaus Photo Festival 2025
CameraHaus Photo Festival 2025 Camerahaus Photolympics: Event Recap
A yearly gathering of photographers, creators, and families at Ayala Malls Manila Bay, Parañaque — this year shining under the theme “Pasilip sa Paskong Pinoy.”
The Camerahaus Photolympics 2025 returned bigger and brighter as a yearly tradition — and this year’s theme, “Pasilip sa Paskong Pinoy”, turned Ayala Malls Manila Bay in Parañaque into a festive playground for over a thousand photography enthusiasts and families.
With the glow of parols, Christmas lights, and the warmth of Filipino smiles, the festival became a place where creators could capture what makes our holidays uniquely Pinoy — simple moments, big emotions, and stories worth keeping.
Capturing the Filipino Christmas Story
Set inside Ayala Malls Manila Bay, the event space was dressed in familiar holiday details: parols, warm lights, and cozy corners that felt like noche buena at home or a family reunion after Simbang Gabi. Every corner was designed to inspire — and to remind guests why Paskong Pinoy is unlike any other Christmas.
From barkadas and couples to creator squads and families with kids in tow, everyone found their own way of telling a story — one frame, one clip, one candid moment at a time.
Festival Highlights and Brand Experiences
The festival was packed with experiences designed for both beginners and seasoned shooters. Some of the key highlights included:
- Live product demos – Real-world demonstrations of autofocus, low-light performance, video features, and more from top camera brands.
- Try-out booths for every brand – Guests had the chance to test cameras, lenses, and gear first-hand before making their next upgrade.
- Print-your-photo booth – Attendees took home printed memories from the event, perfect pang-display at home or pang-share online.
- Parol and Christmas-themed photo spots – Carefully styled setups made every shot feel like a Christmas postcard straight out of a Filipino holiday story.
- Video and vlogging workshop – Content creators learned how to shoot smoother videos, better audio, and more engaging content for their channels.
Powering all these experiences were some of the most trusted brands in imaging and content creation: Sony, Nikon, Canon, Fujifilm, Lumix, DJI, Insta360, Ricoh, Pentax, Amaran, Aputure, SanDisk, Sigma, Tamron, Think Tank, Picture Books, Sirui, Suneast, Agfaphoto, Panlipi Straps, Polaroid, GoPro, and many more!

Mirrorless users explored new lenses, DSLR shooters tested low-light performance, vloggers tried out stabilizers, action cam fans checked out compact rigs, and hybrid creators moved from stills to video with the help of brand experts.
