A Little Behind the Scenes

It was a glorious morning. I walked out of my house to be greeted by morning dew covered leaves, flowers, cars and damp road. Our drive to the park was uneventful. The only exciting part was when we missed the newly opened flyover and had to take an alternative route.

The park was beautiful. Neat, clean and just the occasional empty bottles and cups lying around because of one or two irresponsible people. Other than that, there were quite a number of people living the healthy lifestyle.

We wasted no time trying to catch the morning light, but the sun played hide and seek throughout the morning. This was one of the first few RM388 Portraits Promotion sessions.

The park was filled with people from all walks of life. Most of them came with their kids… and some with their doggies.

It was indeed a challenge to frame the subject and the background without the crowd.

but we managed anyways. Most of them were courteous enough to move out of the way or wait for us to click. Thanks guys :)

When the sun become a little bit too overwhelming to stay out in the park, we moved indoors. A quick of change of clothes later, we were back in action!

It was a quick and fun photoshoot. It was still morning when the photoshoot concluded, so to end the photoshoot…

.. and a cup of freshly brewed coffee.

What a great Sunday morning! Met up with two wonderful people, one of whom is Jason’s long lost colleague, while the other is someone from my kampung! Talk about coincidence! Plus, we had a nice morning walk around the park (while photoshooting) and finally a nice healthy breakfast. And we were back home before the morning was over!

Ahhh… all Sunday mornings should be like this :)

A view from above....

As many Malaysians know KL Tower is one of our icons in Kuala Lumpur standing at 421 m (1,381 ft including antenna) and was build in 1995. It is also the 5th tallest freestanding tower in the world.

I was lucky enough to have been invited to a private function on the KL Tower Mega Deck level, so of course would not miss out in snapping a few pictures from the sky down. So I manage to get a quick snap of the view of Kuala Lumpur from above. Here are two. I hope you like them :)

A Day Out with MayC

It has been sometime since Jason and I went for a model photoshoot. So when Ian invited us to go photograph a model, we jumped at the opportunity. However, it has been raining each and every morning for the past week before that day. And true enough, on the day itself when I got up in the morning, it was raining. And it rained while we were driving to the location, and it continued raining until late morning. Our initial plan to take outdoor photos were almost completely dashed.

But no matter, we still proceeded with the photoshoot in the light drizzle. Nothing will dampen our excitement. hehe. Especially with a model as pretty and charming as Mayc. She was tremendously accommodating and very complimenting to our hyped-up excitement as she giggled and poked fun during the photoshoot.

Even if it had continued to rain, her smile and energy would have completely outshine the gloom of the day.

Just look at how sweet she is...

Jason wasted no time and got right into photographing MayC.

And Ian and I followed suit..

New Genre New Ideas

All the while my love and interest in photography have always been people, for example capturing human expressions like how they laugh, how they talk to each others, how happy they see an old friend. Fashion shoot of how to capture be best of the model figure to bring out what was needed to portray.

It has always been that way with my work, so I told my self "let take a break and think of something new to shoot". So I decided to go shoot some flowers pictures since recently I have gotten a Macro lens.

The funny thing is that I never do liked Macro photography as I always thinks that is a time consuming genre which I have no patience of it. But then after a few shots outside of my garden I begin to understand my some people like Macro Photography as it opens up a whole new way in seeing things that we take for granted.

The Full fledge Macro photographer is still not too into it but then applying Macro photography technics with portrait techniques does bring out something interesting. So hope you enjoy.







This first 3 image i shot it in way that it is right against the bright back light. I did it that why is to allow the light to penetrate thru the petals of the flower and shot it with a very shallow depth of field making this picture sharp on the focus area and soft at the back resulting the petals colored up like pastel paint on a canvas.......
