Kay Vintage Portrait Shoot

December 12, 2009

It’s been a while since I last did any portrait session so I pushed myself to do something…and so I came up with an idea to try something with a touch of vintage at Heritage Hotel. I’ve visited the hotel once long ago for group pre-wedding shoot for some couple. I wasn’t too happy with most of my shots there so I made a return.

Somehow I must have left this out, here some individual shots of Inverted Coma. Here’s their site address again www.inverted-coma.com. For those that haven’t heard of these guys…I would recommend that you drop by their site or facebook or myspace and take a listen to their tracks, I love em, not sure whats their genre to be honest but if you’re one of those who love the 90’s kind of music…I guess this is the band you would love too.

Here we have David on Vocals

It was a lovely Saturday Morning that we decided to have this lovely shot taken in a park. Shi Ley whos now 7 months pregnant is about to be a mother to her first born.  This was my first maternity shot and it was a blast, though it wasn’t as long as the other shots I’ve done, Shi Ley and Jeffrey got comfortable with the camera very fast and was a breeze for me to just go on with what I do best.

Here’s a sneak preview of what’s coming up soon.

Inverted Coma Studio shoot

August 13, 2009

Had a session with these guys officially not too long ago. Though it’s been mention and talked about, it has finally came to action. We’ve made a move and finally did our 1st official photo session at a studio. Inverted Coma isn’t a new band but instead has been around for quite some time now, feel free to check them out at www.inverted-coma.com or search them at facebook.

They also took some behind the scene shots while I was at work but the pictures are on their facebook fan page. Inverted Coma consists of David (Singer), Jason (Lead guitar), Raymond (Keyboard/Guitar), Julian (Bass) and their new drummer Dillon.

So here’s some of the group shots that I’ve chosen.

So here are the pictures,  this isn’t my usual routine of touching so much but from this set I’ve actually learned alot and have also been working on a new work flow. I hope you enjoy looking through the pictures as much as I enjoy processing them. I have to say digital photography is really really fun once you get the hang of it.

Here’s a shot I did some time back in June, took me a while to edit it as I was too busy with some other errands. I’ll be releasing the pictures soon but I would love to get some feedback on this slide show. Hopefully it works this time as the previous time Youtube didn’t really gave me proper quality pictures and also they mute my slides as the song was infringing copyrights.

What’s coming up…

June 18, 2009

It’s been a long time since I’ve last posted anything or took portraits, this is some back dated shots which I did and hopefully the slide show will be done soon enough.

Here’s a sneak preview

I had the urge the other day to test my Sigma 24-70mm under daylight, reason was because I find my pictures not consistently sharp. This time the pictures that were edited seem a little colorful to me..haha but I think it’s not too bad looking..just hmm colorful I have to say.
