  mihaela & shehaan: wedding  

Tuesday, 21 October 2008

Once again, I had the pleasure of being a part of the JSP team last Saturday for the wedding ceremony and location shoot of Mihaela and Shehaan. 

My day started a bit differently and it involved packing my gear and hemming my new pants =p
The dryer shrinks everything so I bought a new pair of pants and had to take it up 10cm!! Seriously, don’t the fashion industry understand that not everybody is big and tall? Some of us only grow sideways you know.
I seem to keep bumping into people I know at weddings as of late. Last time was while I was taking a group shot and this time was while the processional was happening. I was taking photos of bridesmaids coming down the aisle when I saw a familiar face through the viewfinder. I took the shot, checked the LCD and scratched my head (in my mind, not literally). I looked up and she smiled at me, confirming that I know her.
Now I know this first photo isn’t for everybody but I kinda like that sense of the bride and her father appearing out of the light. If anyone happens to like it, let me know so I won’t feel so abnormal =)
Mihaela’s parents embracing their new son in law =)

Shehaan didn’t smile very much during the ceremony. I later learnt that he was a little conscious of doing so as he thought he didn’t have a nice smile. He couldn’t be more wrong ‘cos I think his smile is gorgeous!!
Nothing beats natural light in my opinion.
The girls.
Corina – the lovely bridesmaid that surprised me during procession.
I’m off to the farm wedding this weekend! The weather better be good! =)

  jessica: portrait  

Tuesday, 14 October 2008

If you’ve been here before, I’m sure you would’ve noticed the adorable girl with curly blonde hair and incredible blue eyes sitting right on top of the page. She has been watching over this blog since it went live and I think she deserves a little post of her own =)

Jessica is as cute as a button and toally a delightful little girl. Jess has so much energy and during the hours I spent with her, she would walk and walk and walk. The only time she stopped was when she was having a sandwich break. I really got a work out that day from following her around!
This was taken quite a while ago now and Jessica was one of the first portrait sessions that I’ve done. It was at the beginning of my transition from photographing landscapes, flowers and things to capturing people. I remember browsing through the images on the LCD of my camera while driving home. I felt a different kind of contentment from doing photography. The pictures meant something more because it wasn’t just a pretty flower or a nice building. It was the smile and the spirit of a child. The pictures of somebody’s daughter.
P.S. Driving while checking your LCD is just like driving while on the mobile phone. Not good.
