ICYMI: Cyclists in Cebu City should now Mischelle Mae Jumalon by now.
CEBU, Philippines—Cyclists in Cebu City should know Mischelle Mae Jumalon by now.Yup, Jumalon is a ‘mamitikay,’ or a street photographer, who regularly takes pictures of cyclists around Cebu’s bike routes.It was her need to feel active after her appendectomy—a surgery to remove the appendix when it is infected.“Right after finishing my 42-kilometer 7/11 Run Series run last November 2021, I was admitted to a hospital because of stomach ache.
Jumalon shared she had no interest in photography at first, but what seemed like a pause in her sports life opened an opportunity for something new.“I think I am slowly realizing the legacy of my papa as [a photographer] without me even knowing. I just feel like I have created something valuable and I feel the same happiness through the pictures of those I take pictures of,” she said.
Jumalon’s favorite spot for taking pictures is an area in Barangay Busay that is shortly after the famous Chateau de Busay. Ironically, her favorite spot comes after one of the toughest climbs in that particular bike route which cyclists dread. When asked what she thinks about female photographers joining the “pitik” craze, Jumalon said the love for photography knows no gender.
