Music video
The music video premiered on 3 April 2007, and on Australian music channels on 18 May. It opens with Buena lying on a bed, writing and looking at pictures in a scrapbook. One picture comes to life, showing Buena taking photos and partying with friends; her sister Dalisay makes a cameo. During the second part of the chorus, she is seen in shops taking pictures. The second verse places her in a room filled with candles, then she appears in a white dress against a background with pictures on the wall. As she sings the bridge, many pictures appear, including one of Buena wearing a necklace that says "real." She wears a short black dress, as on the single cover, during the second chorus. People dance as she sings the bridge, and the video closes with various photos of Buena and her friends.
