Angel Locsin's newest cover is photographed by Neil Arce

"Teamwork makes the dream work" is real and Angel Locsin and Neil Arce proved it.

The Action Drama Queen graced the cover of Metro.Style's latest digital issue. The photos were shot by Neil himself and were released under the theme "Angel as seen through the eyes of Neil."

“I think ang ganda ng concept niyo na ’yun kasi siyempre hindi naman nakikita ng mga tao kung papaano niya ako nakikita ’di ba?" Angel said in an interview with Metro.

In the cover feature, Angel also opened up about how much effort Neil put into getting good photos of her, even though he isn't a professional photographer.

“Nakakatawa siya. So ’yun na nga kasi, ‘through the eyes of Neil Arce’ ’di ba? Hindi kasi siya talaga magaling mag-picture, aminin na natin ’yun. So, siyempre [I was telling him], baka pwedeng i-angat mo naman nang konti, alam mo naman tayong girls kailangan pantay ang framing. Sasabihin niya sa akin, ‘O, ’diba through the eyes of Neil nga?’ So wala kang marereklamo," she said.

"Pero kinareer naman niya, nakakatawa. Ang aga niya nag-set up sa bahay, hindi naman niya alam paano gamitin ’yung mga gamit, pero nag-set up siya, alam mo ’yung ganoon? So, may effort talaga siya. Namawis siya noong buong shoot na ito," she added.

Neil's efforts weren't in vain: the photos he took were gorgeous.

"Nagtawag nga ng glam team eh, siya ’yun lahat, ‘Gusto ko may makeup ka dito, gusto ko ganyan ganyan.’ Tapos noong nakita niya ’yung pictures, super happy siya, so na-happy din ako. ’Pag nakikita kong masaya siya, masayang-masaya rin ako," Angel enthused.

Angel and Neil got engaged in 2019. The two recently launched their Youtube channel, "The Angel and Neil Channel" where they will upload their joint digital ventures together.
