Yeah, am back after almost 2 months gone from blogging this... very busy and life changed to very much better direction of course :)Just came back from Kuala Lipis for a bridal shoot session with Alan & Joanna(will promise to blog soon enough)and I can't describe how blessed I am to have interesting clients that gave me unexpected challenges in getting their wedding photos done.. this time round... we went to a rubber & Cocoa estate as our location! TONS of mosquitoes!!! as I say... interesting... here I meetup with some friendly locals that will not hesitate to show you around, to describe in details on how to get to a certain place.. to love to have their photos taken... and even their food portion is bigger! I might not make lots of money as a photographer in fact, we photographers struggles.. but the experience is priceless...
As I'm on my way to Kuala Lipis, many things came into mind, I asked myself this "do you want to shoot something that your client can keep for years or what your clients wants"? I have clients that dictate every single shot that I took... I have clients ask "huh? stay close again ah? you can do something else or not? like I don't smile?" personally.. no offense... Chinese will looks like communist when they don't smile alright! :) questions waging war in my mind... in the end, I made a conclusion. That some people only looks for the "experience" on getting their important wedding photos done and some really cherish photos that can last(photos that last doesn't requires you to do Titanic pose for e.g.) you just have to be who you are and smiles looking at the camera, unless you tell me that you are not into the getting married thingy, the you can forget this blog and click to others... :)
I'm not interested on getting cool out of the world shots from you, Just be who you are.
Really, after 5+ years into wedding photography... I'm not there to get your photos for expanding my business... wins this or that... I just want to get you photos that you can keep. Not a wedding shoot experience.
Oh yeah!!! the photo of the kids above! LOVE THIS LOTS!!.. its been a long time since I had such feel in taking photographs.. it happens in the morning while waiting for Joanne to get herself ready for the shoot, outside the house while admiring the morning sun.. bump into a bunch of kids playing chase chase.... holding my camera, suddenly a girl appears from her house back door "uncle, pai wor pai wor(means take my photographs in mandarin) as usual.. I took it :)
Promise you guys the next post, it will be a wedding shoot post. Patience.... :)
