Stephanie...

Another commonality we share among the two of us, other than the obvious; is our love for pets. Dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, chinchillas, you name it we've probably seen it in a glass enclosure and sighed in unison.


Steph's like that too, just like that; but most likely with more animated sighs.

She brought her darling shitzu, Shiro, over. Shiro along with Candy, Valerie's shitzu, are stars of sorts in the advertising world. The pair appeared in a Straits Times full page ad...yes it's true!

We got some shots of Steph in a wonderful blue Swirl dress. I love their clothes, and all the label stands for. Steph kinda epitomizes that very ideal as well. She was initially a little nervous but soon loosened up...yes we have a way with our subjects. Here are a couple...

We've got a wind machine too...yes it's true!

And lastly my personal favorite out of all the shots...

You're too cute for words! :D

The "LONG eyelashes, BIG eyes" club

Nothing beats the genuine smiles of kids when taking their pictures, especially when you don't have to tell them "ok...1, 2, 3 SMILE". All it takes is someone by the side making them laugh, or all it takes is a funny face and they crack up.

Everything's spontaneous, and Au Naturale. =)

So the first kids we thought of, Gary (my cousin) and Michelle's 2 little ones, Gabriel and Mabel. Thanks for the help from our assistant aka mummy lam, who made them crack up in smiles ever so often.

Lesson learned, always have entertainment and props for them to play with (there can never be enough of them!!!) and a funny assistant aka mummy lam there to make them smile.

Props used that day:
1) 2 Mario character toy cars from those $1 wind up capsule machines(those that you pull back and will run all over the shop when you let go)
2) 1 Teddy bear (for the girl)
3) Half a packet of Fruit Tella! (come on... you and I know those sweets "Rocked our Socks" at the age)
4) A feather pen (For Mabel to play "The bear needs to be cleaned...dust it dust it")
5) Guitar Hero's guitar
6) Miniature football
7) Slinky
8) Their own little hamster that pooped all over our back drop

Can't wait for the new arrival of their little sister!!! Cause then...Baby Pictures!

Woah is We

So here goes, our big baby steps off the deep end into taking our photography to the next level. We've been shooting for some time now, started off with the initial fascination of capturing and documenting everything we could fervently do.

Shooting pictures, capturing beauty, discovering the unseen, transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary...yeah the list continues.

We went out and did what any sane person would do, got ourselves a roll of 9ft seamless white, a set of Elinchroms, triggers, stands, clamps, the whole works; and started shooting like there was no tomorrow. Our wallets cried in agony, but our passion never believes in taking a number.

After a long hot stuffy car ride back, here's the aftermath...

Lesson learned, intercommunication skills are extremely important when dealing with a huge roll of paper.

Yes that along with good hand-eye coordination as well.

I guess that's where we're strong in, we've been together for as long as I can remember it. If not for communication, I shudder to think where we'd be now.

We're on this journey together, we invite you to join us; full steam ahead...

hold tight.
