When Julie and Chiev asked me to be their wedding photographer, I was so honoured and over the moon!  They’re such a cool couple and I can’t wait to shoot their wedding coming up in a few months.

I haven’t known them for that long but Wong and I can get along with them so well and it’s great to have them as new friends. (Especially because they’re into their motorbike… just wish the can talk Wong into it!)

Congratulations guys!

I love messing around with my macro lens!  This spider is actually only the size of a 5cent piece.

Nothing to see here, just testing out my new camera flash… it works.  Now I gotta clean up my desk

It’s been a while since I’ve gone out and shot some photos around the city at night, plus I want to play around with my new wide-angle lens!

A few friends (old and new) met up, and we spent 3 hours learning/teaching/enjoying photography

Christmas came early this late May… I got a few goodies from my favourite store, DigitalRev

A flash, a wide angle lens, and… my macro lens!  I love it!  It can do awesome shots like this:

I’m going to do a few test shots with the wide angle tomorrow night in and around the city.  If you wanna tag along, hit me up on Facebook.

I’ve had my Nikon D80 for a while now and I’ve started experimenting with strobes a lot lately.  I have an SB-600 with an Elinchrome skyport transmitter/receiver system.  I’ve been triggering my flash with my skyport (that’s the transmitter on my camera telling the receiver on the flash within radio transmitting distance to fire).

But I’ve only just discovered Nikon’s CLS (creative lighting system) which allows my pop-up flash on my camera to remotely trigger my remote flash!  So what I did in this photo was have the flash pointing at the wall, and the wall was my giant softbox, and wala!

Now I’m in the market to by a bigger flash, the SB-900 which I will use as my primary light, and my current SB-600 will be the hair light firing from behind my subjects   Can’t wait!

Here’s another photo I took using the same technique but this time the flash was directed into a reflective umbrella.

Pretty cool huh?  Now I don’t have to melt my products/subjects with work lights
This coral was taken from Phuket from our honeymoon last year in November 2008.

Why do we make our lives complicated more than it is?  Or is it just me that’s doing this?

Ash is my fiancee’s niece. Isn’t she adorable?!!

Anesa and Anis were married in South Eastern Melbourne in December 2007.
Their reception was held at Princess Court Receptions with over 300 guests attending.

This was the first Bosnian wedding I’ve shot and it was spectacular with traditional music and dance, glorious amount of food throughout the whole day!

Just looking back, I wonder how much festivities, emotion, and energy can be packed into one tiny day?!!

It was an amazing experience and I’d do it again in a heartbeat
