Yee 32°C

It's Saturday, weather was sunny, and yes, it was hot. Featuring Wan Yee from Pretty Good Morning, where she had her first official personal portrait shoot. The theme for this album is "a little lost", where Wan Yee was losing her directions in a hot and sunny day, without knowing where she's heading to.

Shooting locations were at Sejingkat area, on the other side of Kuching City. Thanks Wan Yee for her enthusiasm and effort without complaining about the hot conditions during the portrait session. Oh, another person to thank, which is Jun, for accompanying us and holding the reflector.

Happy viewing!!! 

Moon & Her Violin

Her nickname is Moon, shots were taken at a local studio. Photos were pretty straightforward from the camera, converted from RAW though. The last time I had my studio sessions were during my college time. Well, I was glad to pick up the fun again returning to a studio and conduct some snappy moments, thanks to James.

Happy viewing!!!

A Few Faces From Lemanak Longhouse

Yes, I do black & white photography as well, but occasionally. These were some minor collections from my 2010's trip to one of the Iban Longhouse at Batang Ai, Sarawak. It took us 3 hours of driving on the road, and another 45 minutes of long boat to reach this place. That time, I was with two of my former colleagues on an assignment to capture the life and scenery at this longhouse both in photography and videography.

The style of this shoot was more to travel/ documentary/ photojournalism approach, where I tried my best to mimic what the pros did in NatGeo.

It was an unforgettable trip though, having some memorable moments staying overnight at the longhouse, and yeah, we did have some great food too.

Happy viewing!!! 

Earth Day 22.04.12

Not long ago we have Earth Hour, and today, it's Earth Day. Presenting here are some fine art nature stills, taken not long ago. These photos were taken by my good ol' Canon EOS 30D with EF Macro 100 mm f2.8 USM lens, shot in RAW format, converted to JPEG then tweaked a little using Adobe Photoshop.

The colors remain faithful to the actual thing. Our home, Earth is a wonderful and beautiful place, so try your very best to make our planet a greener habitat to live in. We all share the same responsibilities.

Happy Earth Day & happy viewing!!!

Morning, Misty

It was one early morning, my initial plan was to produce a portrait by the beach. And I was expecting it would be either sunrise or an overcast day. But when we reached our destination, the mist has gathered up and it became thicker and thicker. So, change of plan.

The thick mist has rendered an idea in my mind thus I came up with this album based on the "misty" theme. In order to enhance the theme, I asked Mary to show me more of her signature"poker face" and posed a little awkwardly. The colors of the picture has been toned down and residing to a bluish tone, so it feels a little chilly when you're viewing these photos (It was quite a cold morning though).

Happy viewing!!!

Natalie's Graduation

Last year in October, a day after Natalie graduated from Swinburne University Sarawak. We went to town, back home and the campus for quick portrait session, as she's returning the robe by late afternoon.
