Personal Favourite

A backlit lighting portrait of Yvonne with some greens around. The bokeh are great and the sharpness of the 24-70mm are excellent. It's Nano coated so, taking a backlit photo such as this is an ease with that lens. But basicly, the reason for this photo being my personal favourite is simple. I was too much mesmerized with that 'get back stare' exspression given by Yvonne. Not just me, any man would.

Yvonne Amy

My good friend, Tico came over to Penang to do some shooting and he asked me whether there's anyone we can shoot during his trip here. So, I suggested Yvonne and after some discussion between them via facebook, it's on. This was my second time working with Yvonne and it was so easy working with her. I can bet ya she can really go far in modelling if she really wants to get serious in it. It was really enjoying, and got some tips from Tico, who is super talented and have more experience in this genre. Thanks to Yvonne and Frisco for making it happen.
We went downtown Penang to get some old vintage looking background. I played a bit with the tone to make it look more classic.

Close up look on beautiful Yvonne.



Vintage look photo. I remember back in those days when we still use film inside the camera.

Personal Favourite

O, hey...she's smiling. I waited like 5 or maybe closed to 10 minutes before she starts smiling. But it's all worth it when you see that precious, cute little smile she gave me.

Avril's baby portraiture


Pulled up a photoshoot session at Loretta's house to shoot her daughter, Avril. It's pretty hard to take baby's or perhaps kid's photos because you can't instruct them to do the pose you wanted. So, everything comes in naturally and the key to it was, perseverance and patience. That's what I learned.

Personal Favourite

Another beach photo, another wave stands stills, this is as cliche' as it gets with Hui Hui photo. But perhaps' that's the basic reason why I love this type of photo. The only difference is, this photo has lots of excitement appear in Debra's facial, although Doneal was trying to look as cool as possible. Had a great time with them, looking forward for their pre marriage photo pula after this.

Debra and Doneal pre engagement photo

We took these photo's at 2 separate location and 2 separate day, but both in Penang. I was lucky because during the first session, I was joined by a good friend of mine, Frisco who have a wider experience in photography. Lot's of technical and new things learned during the session.
This photo was taken by Debra herself, she wanted to share their joy with their fish. So, she placed the rings inside the aquarium and I gave a little tips on the lighting setups, and here it is. Pity though, those 2 fish which appear in this picture died soon after we were back in from Sabah. Rest in Peace.





For the second session, we went to Batu Ferringhi for some typical beach shooting.































So, we've done it, all we have to wait is the engagement day itself. Congratulation to both of you!!!

The 2010 Adventist College of Nursing yearbook

I also took the individual photo of Class 2010 and the AN group 9 for their yearbook. It was really fun, did them at the college auditorium and sets up a mini studio with the curtain as background. All I did after that is call each one of them to come up and take their photo.
