14 more days..

Hey people.

I’ve just added a flash header to my blog. Took me the whole morning to figure out how to do it. There’s still a little adjustment to the flash header. I’m satisfied!

Sitting down in the living room all alone, I count the number of days I have left in Malaysia…14 more days! I’m not even prepared to leave the country. I don’t know what I should and shouldn’t bring over, I haven’t done my shopping yet and I haven’t even collected my air flight ticket from my friend!

Sighh..the thought of leaving to Australia right now made me a little sad right now.

Oh yeahh..one more photo from my last photoshoot!

Church Magazine Photoshoot (Part 1)

I was asked to photograph various departments in my church for their 40th Anniversary Magazine. So last Saturday I planned a shoot for the worship department as well as the Royal Rangers.

It wasn’t easy, seriously. It took me weeks of planning and coming out with ideas. After I had the idea, I needed to find people to be in the shoot and people to help me out and not forgetting, making arrangements with the church to use their front carpark.

Shooting the picture is one thing. The other thing is the set-up! The set-up began as early as 5pm and lasted till 9pm when I finally shot my first picture. It’s true that a good shot takes 90% spent on the set-up and 10% spent on the camera.

Shooting this set-up piece was really something new to me. I’ve never done this sorta thing before in my whole entire life. There are so many things involved – lights, people, props, dresscode, lots more! Controling the lightings was the toughest. I had so many diff light sources and each of them gives out different colour. I had to make sure my white balance is just nice for a warm skin tone. Shooting in RAW do help sometimes if you screw up the white balance =)

Enjoy the next few series of pictures!

While the set-up was going on, some of them were enjoying the air cond

Once again I would like to take this opportunity to thank EVERYONE who in one way or someway helped out the photoshoot! I couldn’t have done it without you guys. You guys rawwk! =)

Stay tune for Part 2..which is the Royal Rangers shoot!
