Gone, Soon

I have a thing into abandoned places, the more it's torn apart, the more I love it. Here's a series of photographs featuring Mary at a site that's about to be cleared. 

The site was totally leveled to the ground a day right after that.

Happy viewing!!! 

Jun's Outing

Featuring friendly and charming Jun, a colleague and a friend of mine. We went all the way to a national park, about 30 kilometers away from town to conduct this portrait session. The park used to be a busy place for families to have their picnics and gatherings here, but now it's just like another deserted park...

However, we all had a great time in this lush and green nature. Happy viewing!!!

Actual Day Wedding 26/12/2011: Gordon + Lydia

My last wedding job, last year. It was a last minute call (3-4 days) before the actual wedding date. Gordon was introduced by some of my friends and he got interested in my work. His actual wedding day fell on 26th December 2011, and it was a public holiday, since I was available so I accepted this assignment.

It was a pleasure covering Gordon's wedding, thanks to him for appointing me. Happy viewing!!!

Pamela

Pamela is one of local's popular model that everybody loves. These photos were taken back in 2010 with few other fellow photographers at Carpenter Street, one of Kuching's oldest street. She really does know how to pose professionally, which make it hassle-free when it comes to directions.

Happy viewing!!!

Esther Lo, First

This was the first time I met Esther, dated back in November 19, 2011. Despite it was her first time "modelling", she did just fine without excessive directions from me. That time I was having this portrait session alongside with her uncle, James at the Kuching State Library area.

The weather that time was sunny and it worked nicely with Esther's cheerful personality. The most attractive part about her is her big and shiny eyes which seemed to "speak and tell" by just looking or staring at you. 

It was such a pleasure collaborating with Esther as she's just good at being herself and being natural. Stay tuned for her next 2 round of portraits which I'm going to post next time.

Happy viewing!!!

Final Light Of 2011

Office's schedule just got hectic and worse, I don't have free time to organize a new portrait session that soon. So instead of waiting for my personal free time to come, I'm going to post some of my previous works for the time being.

This series of photos were taken back then on the last day of 2011, so as you can see from the pictures, they're kind of moody and gloomy, portraying the feeling of bidding goodbye to 2011 and welcoming an unknown 2012.

Talent: Mary Tan

Sunday's Escape

Ever since I got into an office job, my freedom was being taken away by my working life. So apart from Saturday and Sunday, and public holidays, the rest was gone and gone, and gone.

Whenever weekends come, I was either stuck at home or just go to certain usual places that I used to visit. But not this Sunday, where I forced myself to get the heck out there and look for some fresh view. On the board were my mum and little sis, where we first reached Damai Central, a relatively new place which offers free entrance to the public. It has a mini beach, a restaurant, a food court, a bar and 7-Eleven. However, more outlets are about to open here in near future. 

After hanging around for about and hour, I've found out this might be the upcoming location for my portraiture assignment, simply perfect.

As there's still some time before dinner, we then stopped by another beach called Pantai Puteri Santubong. There we got ourselves some colorful evening sky as dusk is closing by. The tide at this beach was about a kilometer away, so the sound of the crashing wave was so soft, there we got some silence and peace while me pressing the shutter whenever the scenery fits.

Till next time. Happy viewing!!!
