2014 Projects | Interior & Furniture Photo shoot - Part 2

Another challenging photo shoot which I worked on various types of center table.  I was geared with Canon 5D Mark II, Tamron 28-75mm, Elinchrom D-Lite RX4, Benro tripod, Vello Shutter remote, Phottix reflector.

2014 Projects | Interior & Furniture Photo shoot

Various techniques were applied in order to achieve my desired output of each photograph.  It was challenging while doing and it helped me to learn more.  I like to experiment whether its a success or a lesson to be learned.

This is a classic bedroom with much details around, beautifully designed interior.  I used the light painting and long exposure technique here and I was geared with Canon 5D Mark II | 28-75mm | Nissin flash.

Q8CON Comic Convention

Yay! I'm one of the official photographers in the first Q8CON Comic Convention held in Mishref, Kuwait.  It was fun collaborating with the talented young Kuwaiti cosplayers  and we're surprised of the unexpected attendance of more than 2k that crowded the entire venue.

Table Top - Part 1

Just finished dinner and thought of doing some photo shoot experiment using small action figure toys as my subject.  I thought of using two small flashlights, small black painted table and crumpled aluminum foil as the background.

I have two small LED Maglite flashlights.  One is place on the ground pointing to the crumpled aluminum foil and the other is aimed to the toy.

I stepped back a bit and set the aperture to f/1.8 to come up with a bokeh on the background.

Let's see what happened and hope it works.

Kamikazee Live in Kuwait

Kamikazee is in town to perform and entertain OFWs in Kuwait.  We are excited to watch and meet Jay Contreras.  Million thanks to Ms. Claire for allowing us to photograph the event though they have their official photographers.

I don't have an access to the front stage for closer shots of the artist, so most of my shots were taken a bit far from the front, from the side and through the backstage - it was challenging.

Osang of X-Factor Philippines also entertained and performed along with Kamikazee.

Last April we had a chance to visit the Summer Capital of Philippines and that is Baguio City.  It was fun photographing those beautiful flowers!
