The White Queen

Just want to say, "wohoo!" I finally finish editing the total 5 albums photos that shot on the same day with different concepts. But editing the photos from starting the first look until here, my patience is really being tested badly. I almost felt hard to be aspiring and inspired for continuing the editing and gettings the photos to be on the right colour mood or feel. To be honest, there are some photos in this White Queen album aren't fully satisfied by me. And have the feeling of wanting to re-edit but also time is running out and I did set a deadline to complete for myself. Really want to give a big thank you to my sister as my model, my friend who helped me on the makeup and hairstyle, Grace Wong and her partner, Genneve Tai. Also thank them for giving a place to photograph as well. Without them, this outcome will be incomplete. I spent two months on handmaking all the props to match the theme and dress and finally get to production and post-production stages. I feel a big comfort and great achievement for making my visions came true, made my life felt meaningful for doing what I love and closer to my dream and goal.

Somewhere out there



Somewhere out there, in the middle of nowhere, where the sun is not alone but like the stars that many and the land is a hot desert place. Concept and the mood I decided to bring out is a warm desert cultural traditional feel like Africans in rural area but still add in fashion element into it with the lion hair and white eye shadow, eye brows and eye lashes.

Before this I was struggling find the right colour mood to adjust the colours and feel right and different from the previous posts I did which they all were shot on the same day and  same place.

Below images are my first and second attempts on adjust the colour palette.

A date with the night



"Dreaming to have a starry date with the beautiful night where the moon is softly glowing and the stars blended together from sky to earth. I am dating with the night."

This is the second look I photographed on the same day with the previous post. I like the outcome but I kind of regret the amount of photos were taken and the selected photos which I love.
The hat is eventually from bouquet flower decoration and the necklace are just chained different sizes of ring files. Good idea to full off a romantic classy evening look for photo shoot?

Red Net


Another new album is up o post now. Hope you all enjoy this series of photos. More photos will be updated soon once I am done with post production. You may question why I use the same model which is Eva Lim, my sister. First is because, being her brother for years and seen her tried few modelling photo shoots with other photographers before, I believe I know her well, and I think she is a good model who is willing to communicate or discuss with photographer and have her input to blend with mine and yet she did fulfilled the basic requirements of a model. Second, because I am working for my own art projects, I am not having paid nor really my own business yet. So I know its hard to find models who have the face features I want and willing to work with me without getting paid, I only can afford by paying their meals on the photoshoot day and also have the good attitude to work with when my commanding power isn't that strong and persuasive at times.
