Bobby and Rennie: A quick shoot

I have to personally thank Nick for asking me to tag along with him during his portrait shoot with Bobby and Rennie. Nick was one of the participants of the recently held got Mojo? Camp organized by the crazy folks over at RedNinja (me included!) and I thought I could help him out and also offer to carry the reflector for him. He was also in the group that I was leading during the individual and group challenges.

The shoot was held at Pavillion, right at the heart of KL itself but it was early in the morning. Traffic heading there was pretty smooth and I was pleasantly surprised that the guards didn't chase us away.

Here are some of the photos I took including some of the behind the scenes shots.





I managed to catch this moment when they were playing whilst Nick was packing up his stuff.







After staying under the hot sun and making everyone walk about from end to end, we all decided to head to Starbucks for a quick drink.











Bobby seems a little intrigued with Nick's flash. Nick told him that he was a flasher!



Here are some of the behind the scenes photos.



I find Bobby's expression priceless when Nick was trying to explain the pose.



Nick was really trying hard to blend in together with the taxi stand.







I was literally behind the scene for this shot. Funnily, the couple in front wasn't Bobby and Rennie, they were just coming out of the toilet! Imagine their surprise when they saw Nick and Hsien Ming right in front of them like that. LOL.





Actually, this was the start of my labour day last Saturday. It's Thursday everyone, have a great weekend ahead!

Warren & Amy's Portraiture Session

I tagged along with Grace the other day to shoot Warren and Amy's portraiture photos together with Karen. I have known Amy since when I was a small little boy (I think I was 6 years old) and her mum even has videos of me and the other kids back in Sunday school where we were taking part in a play. Anyway many many years have passed since then and here I am taking her portraiture photos before their big day in May.

The weather that day was a little more on the gloomy side and there wasn't much sun about. And to also top it all, there was rain and it got heavier by the minute but I am sure that didn't stop any of us (I got soaked quite a fair bit). Here are some of my favourite photos, a little different style of post processing but I just wanted to try something different.

I simply love train stations, ever since I was a boy, I loved playing with model train sets!

I like the feel of this shot especially with the rain drops in the background. No rain is gonna stop me from taking photos!

This shot was really inspired by my awesome teacher at numerous workshops, Louis Pang.

Did anyone say Korean drama series?

After the shoot, Warren and Amy were so kind enough to buy us lunch at Carat Club in Pavillion. Ironically I am also writing this blog post in Pavillion as well and of course my wonderful boo-boo of updating my Twitter and Facebook status, saying that I ate at "Carrot" club instead of "Carat". I blame the auto correction on my iPhone :P

Of course that didn't prevent us from sneaking a couple of shots as well.

This shot was also posed by Grace. She has a wonderful eye for reflections!

Below are some behind the scenes shots which I sneaked in. I was shooting some portraits, behind the scenes shots, carrying the monopod as well as taking care of the bags. Not too shabby eh?

The umbrellas do tell a story, it reminds us to always bring it when we go on a shoot! I think we had like 4 umbrellas all between us and this does not include the ones we use for lighting. Haha.
