Toddler the most difficult to instruct to take picture. The short period he was seated here is with the white reflector.

I got mine cheap from ShaShinKi.com - Malaysia's Online Camera Shop!

They had model shooting competition which I didn't actually participate but joined in snapping away.
Of course the real stars of the fair aren't really the fair models but the gears. The new Nikon 1 that comes in pink, white and black are actually something really cool to have!! Apart from being pink, this is actually a powerful mirrorless compact that comes with interchangeable lenses that are the current rival for Sony's Nex 3, Olympus' 'Respect' PEN, Lumix's DMC LX5 and Canon's G12.

I still have problem accepting that some compacts don't have shortcuts to the M, A and S functions. You actually have to press menu for those.
Something else that caught me were the mini studio booths for sale. I've seen this on online stores but this is the first time I'm seeing one. This is a consideration for those who want a home studio for marketing goods where you can just place the stuff in it, flip the lights on and take clear pictures of them with any background colour you want.
Not to worry if selling goods is not in your book, they also have human size booths. This one is RM6700 per unit! A little too pricey for amateurs like me. I forced the kid to model in it and this is the result. Actually kinda cool, with all key lighting in place, you can have that studio look like in magazines. This is absolutely so much advance than my home made studio I did in my 'Images of Low Key Lighting' post.


A totally unplanned photo shoot and was running low on juice. The three of us attended a friend's wedding luncheon at town and afterwards since we were all dressed and in make up, we head to the Baba Nyonya House just shoot outside since my batts was low. Fact is, I really didn't know that we were going for more shoots. We took turn holding the toddler that followed me along :)
June just graduated and going for post graduates soon. She has gone through a lot than anyone of us can handle to get there. Wish you all the best June Mabel! She is not only intelligent but also has a great smile! Thanks for helping and looking forward for many other sessions!! God bless...
