She's Back!! : Behind the Scenes

A few pictures of the behind the scenes


You know... it's always a certain kind of joyful feeling to be able to see a picture of yourself finally after a long time of taking pictures for other people... but, my fault la who ask me camera shy and don't like to cam whore~~ heh heh

Either way, while taking pictures, Lixuan also helped to take some pictures of what happened outside the camera's view point~ of course there isn't much, but then again she had to focus on taking pics for her assignment though, so can't ask for much too =p

Let's begin shall we? =)
Something simple, only problem was keeping myself balanced... dangerous level??? 7/10 I guess.... if you fall down you won't die, but if you landed on your camera you'll feel just as dead too I guess...
But from a high angle portraits will look different~ of course would be better with a wide angle or a fish eye lens though... in which I have neither -_-
Then was the shot on the road... haha nothing special~~ danger level?? 0/10 unless a car suddenly drives off the road towards you then..... yeap~
Jeng jeng~
This picture ah... no picture of what happened behind the scenes, but this one dangerous level is 10/10

Why?? Shall not describe in detail but you could say I was a floor above =)
The little little bear bear =)
=]
this one ah.... hold your camera steady... cause if not sure drop it into the river then not sure how to find it d... looks too deep also, scary...
But then again.. I was lucky the wind blew~~ =)

Nothing else already~ So I guess will just throw in a couple pictures that couldn't look pro but would be labeled as bloopers?? Not sure...
uwarrrr~ XD
Usually she'll take my camera to capture a picture of herself, which is normal =)
But for this time it was special I guess... haha but there's no doubt she's a fun girl to work with =)

Mmmm behind the scenes, seriously I like looking at those pictures lo, and I guess I should start asking for assistance during a shoot, get someone to help me take the behind the scenes pictures, and to help hold the reflector, etc etc...

But not sure how many would be more than willing...?? Anyone?? o.o

She's Back!!!

Are you more excited than I am??? XD



It's been over a year since I last had my first ever photoshoot, alot has changed, a lot of happened, and a lot has been learned throughout the years and months of practicing and learning.... and all of this has been possible because of my first model, Wendy...

Haha, she was my first ever model, and I was her first ever photographer for a photoshoot... kinda weird how things go eh?? Either way... after the photoshoot, she starting becoming famous, now... quite a well sought after model already for photographers... haha so she has been busy busy~~

But for the moment time, Lixuan had a photography assignment, which the topic was "Portraits"

Why wasn't my assignments ever so fun?????

Either way, she didn't have enough pictures from the previous shoot, so I requested Wendy if she could help out, thank God she did though... haha, so was also my first time doing a shoot with another photographer together... interesting indeed~~

Our first idea was to go Lake Gardens, but on that morning it was seriously jam.... jam jam jam... so we ended up changing our minds to head towards Putrajaya~ while looking where to shoot, we somehow ended up under the bridge.. wow...

SO... we kinda begun shooting there instead =)
what made it good was because of the shade from the blazing sun, and a little extra sunlight crawling in from the sides.... it's a good and comfortable situation where it's mostly very rare to see~~
if you're wondering, wendy's wearing a cheerleading outfit which she borrowed from her sister.... in which when she I picked her up and when I saw her wearing that I went wow.... haha so different~ =)
this shot ah... was from a high angle, shall show the picture in the following next post =)
I guess one thing about the uniqueness you can find in Malaysia is the... unwelly taken care of places, so with little or no maintenance, the walls can prove to be a rather interesting background ~ =)


Yeah well I kinda suffered a bit from the camera lens distortion thingy... now I understand what they mean by it =)

After a few shots, we decided to head up to the bridge, and Wendy decided to transform into her next outfit~~
Ahhh the putrajaya bridge..
seriously was a hot day lo...
if you were wondering about this shot... well all I can say was that we were dead lucky on that day!!!
It was because they were doing maintenance on the road, so they had to close the passageway on the bridge, so we took the opportunity...

"HURRY HURRY HURRY!!!"

and took as much shots as we could in the middle of the road~~

Sure beats other people asking the model to stand in the middle of the road and run when a car comes =)

But when taking half way a guy told us that they're fixing the road so we shouldn't be here, then only was time to leave =)
One thing I like about Wendy is that most of the time she gives me ideas for a picture instead, so she just hopped onto this pillar and asked me to take... which turned out pretty good O.o
jeng jeng jeng~~

At this moment the sun was driving us crazy so we just ran towards the shade... whew... rested awhile, and continued on taking on the stairs~~

for this shot... all I could say was a slight error and I could've died since I was standing one level above her on the railings of the stairs~ =p
this one was safer =)

no where much to go, the sun was getting hot, so we just decided to go back under the bridge, more comfortable and cooling there~
Then Wendy whipped out her secret weapon~

*Dang dang dang*

and immediately an idea came to me!! XD
XD

seriously I didn't know you could do so much with a bear
oh yeah, her hair has grown really long since last time huh?? =)




=p
Maybe I should do a teddy bear shoot some day??? Hmm....
Wasn't much left, so just take up what's left to wrap things up~~
Later, she took my camera to begin taking pictures of herself~ and decided on a group shot~

Whoops!! depth of field error!! XD
Much better =)

Overall, was a great day, and Wendy is still one of the best models to work it, one of my sure favorites =)

If you've noticed the different new colors in the pictures this time, not sure how, but it just suddenly and accidentally happened when I edited her pictures~ oh well =)

Oh yeah, after awhile a couple of request came to crop the picture to make it look nicer~

What do you think~???? =)

But later on too there were different request and people sending in fan arts of Wendy~
At moments like these you can only wonder how much people like her already... haha =)

Well how much longer till another time is possible?? I have no idea... but look forward to it, and I promise I'll do my best the next time~~ =]

Nicole : Against The Wind

Second, or was it third photoshoot with Nicole?? =)


After the first photoshoot and second photoshoot with Nicole, she wanted a third one... haha, at first couldn't find time to do it, but either way she kept on asking, so so so... managed to find time one day, but then something happened suddenly, but somehow we just managed to squeeze everything into a short less than one hour shoot in The Gardens~~ =]
one thing about that day was that is was.... super, super, super windy~~ O.o
the sun was okay, and the lighting wasn't too harsh~~
but somehow I guess we could try something new with the wind flying all over the place~ =)
yeah wherever we went, there the wind blew XD

but sometimes when the wind just was still, then was also a good opportunity to hurry capture a few shots =)




overall... was a short shoot because of the lack of time, and the location wasn't too broad too... haha, hmmm oh well I guess we might be seeing more of her soon =)

not too sure but looking back at the previous two shoots, alot of people have commented that she now looks better with curly hair =)

and I think i might've improved a little from the previous shoot... don't know~ =)
