On top of that, the guests were entertained by an augmented reality experience that brought life to Megan Young’s message on true beauty.

In collaboration with renowned photographer Niccolo Cosme of Project Headshot Clinic, SM celebrated women who have made a difference in the lives of Filipinos through their chosen advocacies. These women achievers received a portrait taken by Niccolo that was also showcased in the exhibit.

“My mission as a photographer is basically to share the stories behind the subjects,” said Niccolo Cosme.
