Ice T @ Thean Hou Temple

As Chinese New Year (CNY) approaches, out goes the ferocious Tiger and let's welcome the cute Rabbit, I would like to post a recent portrait shoot I took at Thean Hou Temple in Kuala Lumpur with the rest of the MyChiaroscuro members. Every year during CNY, it will be lighted up with lots of lanterns and for this year some nice miniature landmarks.

There were 2 models for the photoshoot. First up I would like to introduce to you the cool Ice T (pun intended) while I will introduce the other in the next blog post. The photoshoot was conducted in the morning but the sky was cloudy and gloomy that day. Enough talk, let's get on with the pictures...

Mei Yan @ The Aperture Studio

Did a promotional shoot for a beautiful part-time model at The Aperture Studio. The shoot is lighted by 2 strobes with soft box on the left and right.

The Aperture Studio is located at Bandar Saujana Putra and is available for rental. Do contact me for details.

Suicide of a Fair Maiden

This series was actually taken more than one year ago but I can only finish processing them now. Yeah, I know, I'm a very lazy bum! Sorry about that.

This series deals with the case of being dumped by a boyfriend after being impregnated by him. Sadly, the victim chose suicide which is the easy way out. More sadly is that this type of scenario is not uncommon.

Pictorial is cut short so as not to bombard the thread with too many photos.

This series has a green cast to the pictures and there is nothing wrong with your monitor. :p It is just to add an ambiance to the sad theme, maybe a bit ghastly too. I would like to apologise should the colours don't suit your taste.

Set in an office environment, we had the opportunity to photograph the lovely Nelly G. No studio lighting was present and lighting was handled through the external flash in a bounced setting.

Fashion on 1 @ 1U

It has been awhile since I did a fashion shoot in a local shopping complex. 2 years ago I was at 1U to shoot Fashion on 1 and got the chance to do it again this year. I have always liked 1U's stage. It is brightly lit with a combination of spotlights and natural light. And the same with previous years, they are gracious to provide photographers a platform to take pictures. This year, I travel light with minimum gears on my shoulder as I didn't bring along my big backpack. My main reason being there was shopping! :P
