Photography course in JB.

The faci, Mr. Noorsham called my pictures as weird, freak. Well here's the proof isn't it? There was actually another perspective shot which I think look much better than this but I forgotten to copt it from the faci's memory card.

The Wedding of Efdza's.... Sister

When I first received the wedding invitation card, I was shocked as Efdza's name was written clearly there. I thought he's the one whose gonna get married. Actually, he was inviting, together with her mom. It was the wedding of his younger sister, Farrah. So on that 15 July, I went there, with my camera, intending to snap whatever picture that I possibly could.

As a good friend (one of the best in fact), I'd like to give those pictures I took as the wedding present for the sister. There's another photographer who kept asking me why am I there. As I told him I'm doing this for free he was shocked and everytime he glanced at my pictures, he will just smile or laughed slowly while rubbing his hand on my back. I didn't really get it but who cares.

This is actually my first attempt doing a studio-like picture. A picture with black background and the background was replaced with a scenery picture. Looked very amateur though but experimental techniques will always come with free stuffs don't you think?

Farah oh Farah, Kenapa Panjat Pokok, Macamana.....

Even though she got scolded by me everyday for every single little small mistake she did, it's because I love her so much. And today she got scolded again. I feel bad but it was just something that i've gotta do.

In doing things, especially new things, there's always something to experiment with. I'm the kind who had always victimized my siblings to become my experiment subject. I still remembered my first attempt to become a barber. I was badly scolded by my mom for doing my brother's hair till he had to be taken to the barber shop to repair his hairdo. Hahahaha. I can't stop laughing at my brother for what I've done!

And for my photography, Farah has always be my experiment subject.

This is the picture i took during our visit to Jakarta last year. I was still using my cybershot. She wanted pisang but I gave her ice cream instead. Hehehehe...

She always avoided my camera. This was a forced snap after my granma insisted her to sit still so that I can take her picture. Hehe....

Does this remind you of something? It looks horror to me. I don't know why. This reminds me of my scary dreams when I was having bad fever or something.
;iso-1600, F/3.5, 1/25s, 18mm, shutter-priority, ev+1.0

See see I told you. She said NO PICTURES!!! Blah blah blah! Pegi main jauh-jauh!
;iso-1600, F/5.6, 1/10s, 55mm, shutter-priority, ev+1.0

Sometimes, she just loves being in front of a camera. Happy moments after seeing her first nephew. She said, YES! At last there's someone I can bully... YEAH!
;iso-400, F/6.3, 1/60s, 200mm

She's already 9 but she still act like a small kid. I was already able to cook, washed my own shoes and throw out the trash everynight at the age of 9.

The Collage of Fahmy & Lisa

Hmm.. I think poem doesn't seems to fit with collage right?

The only shoot that I prepared a lot days earlier. For this shoot, Mel agreed to use Mazuien's Make Up service.

The original plan is to shoot in the 17th June's afternoon, somewhere around 4-6 o'clock whereby the weather and the sunlight is not so direct to the face but considering the daily raining, morning would be the best time. I was hoping that we could make it as early as 7 o'clock there. I've never been to Punggai and Batu Layar. I'm expecting that they're more or less like Desaru. Wild!

I woke up early later just to find out that we arrived there at around 10 something :(. But the sea is a relieving view.

Preparing for the shoot, i slept late and I don't feel comfy and ready for the shoot. I'm sleepy like hell and the sun was bright. I have one worry.

"LENS GLARE"

of which will darken the pictures.

of which it did to some but more than 200 pictures are good ones! hahahaha.

well thank god, the bride and groom were cooperating very well, not to forget Mel's friends who also joined in the photoshoot.

You know what! Batu Layar is such a marvellous place to be. Most of the beach shots were taken at Batu Layar. It has nice sea rocks too. Helps me to get a lot of good angle for snaps.

And thanx a lot to Mazuien who made an effort to come down from KL to JB and last but not least to Lin who has been really kind to introduce my website to Mel and to accompany us during the journey to Punggai and Batu Layar and during the photoshoot.
