Studio Photography

First Attempt - Studio

Had a casual studio photo shoot session last weekend with Eric, Lu ,Ernest and James. It was pretty fun towards the end capturing all the group portraits. Honestly speaking, studio lighting isn't that easy as it thought it was. Basically, we have to know how each equipment works such as soft box, lighting temperature , lighting position , usage of umbrella and reflector and so on. Knowing the basic would seriously help alot. No doubt, it's a really good first attempt and definitely a good experience as well, but i still prefer natural lighting.

Would really love to try out some model shoots or another group shoots.

Well, let the picture tells the story.

(Okay, there's something wrong with the picture arrangement, so it actually starts from bottom to top. lol bare with me for abit. lol. )

This looks like some kind of a boy band. haha

Only one without shades.

Leaving on a Jet Plane

I am leaving on a Jet Plane.

Sorry for the late update post.. I've been busy with things.

Anyways, I'll be updating my blog more when I'm away.
I'll be going to Philippines, Manila for a job training.
For A month & half.

Thinking how am i gonna survive there . It's really a disaster. The place is damn dodgy and what i heard it's really a run down place. Thinking whether i should be happy for it or with any second thoughts ,but it's good in a way I'm gonna be independent and will be basically handling every house work myself which is washing my cloths, clean up the house, survive alone without parents. It's gonna be a different one month without naggings, without friends, without brother disturbing, without car, without my own KL freedom and lifestyle. Just imagine how much I'm gonna miss home.

The funniest thing is I told my friends , we'll yam cha together okie in skype. Lol. Meeting time and all , sigh so silly.

Hopefully, there's internet connection in the apartment so i could keep my blog updated about my work and also the lifestyle there and at least i won't feel lifeless there. Probably, what i enjoy most there would be their dirt cheap shopping. I'll be carrying a pretty huge luggage to fit everything inside, probably i need two because everyone is asking for souvenir. I'm DOOMED!!!!

Cupcakes

I had a random time last night. Immediate thoughts, take out cam and start capturing. I've babygirl's cupcake on my table as well. There i go thinking how should i capture the cupcake angle , proportion and lol uses all sorts of tools that has in my room. The rest of the alphabelt like LUCIA is gone. lol.

Babygirl, it's for you.

This is total focused.

I like all the shadows and contrast.

This is the one i like the most i guess. It's nice playing with shadows, all sorts of backgrounds and effect that comes out. looks beautiful.

Memories.

Tell me about the memories that lingers in your mind once in a blue moon or maybe more. Does it happen on you or I'm just being too emotional? These beautiful graphics and design are beautifully done by someone special in my life. It's a gift for me, love it!

I would say It's a blessing from god from me to you. Bless us with blissful moments and beautiful sweet days together. Never once did forget about every little tiny moments we had, from day one till we call it an end, from the wealthy days to the bankrupt days.Although, at times we fought like there's no solution to it but deep down it makes our loves grows unwittingly. I would say you're the first who taught me how to love truthfully. Therefore, not forgetting our lil baobei that i missed so much. It's fated that she is ours.


*Beautiful smiles*, *Japanese Food*, *Green Tea Frap*, *BBQ Plaza*, *Tabasco Sauce on the Spaghetti* & tonssss more*..

Seriously, Meeting you was a fate, becoming your friend was a choice and falling in love with you was definitely out of control. It's funny that i smiled at myself today in front of the computer, than i realized you were in my mind when i looked at the emails and everything else. It's cute that we sent emails to each other , it's like a explanation letter or a apologies letter. I truly believe that if we were much more mature at that time, i guess we're one of the luckiest and sweetest couple.lol.

But anyway, you know who you are ! =)

Just a thought

If one is like an art that everyone adores and take the own sweet time to analysis it, life wouldn't be so complicated that people would tend to misunderstand the meaning of one and the meaning of how tragic life is. People are so fragile. We(no i should say I) wasn't born to churn out one masterpiece with countless books and education. A 20page report isn't easy to elaborate about just few particular pictures shown.

If u say happiness comes everyday, i would tell you it's a lie. I was hearing to this song that babygirl sent me, it's something about you are honestly not happy. You're actually not really happy. I could cry listening to this song. Come to think of it, i think thats the fact too. Why do i enjoy staying at home nowadays instead of kept going out to chill , because i need to my deep thoughts and actually understand what i really want. Those that I've neglected calling i apologize. Give me time to have my social life back.

Mou yan so emo one le after a rush for 20page report. lol

Woke Up

It's may now and what have i done after studies? Been slacking, partying, growing mushroom and fungus around, measuring the floor , spend money like nobody's business. Shit!! It feels like shit. I'm like some useless , hopeless person not knowing how to earn but spend. Seriously it got me thinking when am i gonna start stepping out of this path to another. I have been putting tons of thoughts deep down and finally I've decided yes JOANNE CHOW u can't slack like this anymore and spending parents money is a sin. YES IT IS A SIN!!!

I'm gonna start making up my resume, my portfolio and start applying for job but before that I'm still pretty keen to work in Singapore so I'll be doing all my research and get myself all motivated , I'll catch for it. I'm proving to myself or anyone around me who loves me that i don't need parents to support me but i want them to be supported by me. Success is always within me, because I'm not gonna let it down. I'm gonna quit things that damage my health , but time is all i need. Keep this spirit and things would eventually work out.

But no doubt it was an awesome April. One month is enough to kill with alcohol everyday. Not the whole month of cause but i guess it's 2 weeks. Lol time to ton it down and back to reality. Party would be much nicer after having a good job and financially stable status. It would be a much fabulous party by then. Something's wrong with me this few days, just can't stop thinking and sleeping. I think i just doesn't wanna wake up no matter how hard i force myself to. There is really something wrong with me, i'm still figuring out. It must be a little bit of everything i suppose. Will upload the happenings when i feels like blogging again. The next chapter would be making the impossible possible. Stay Tuned. haha

Finally Finally

FINALLY FINALLY !!!

A day I've been waiting for,
A day full of moments,
A day full of memories,
A day full of satisfaction,
A day which doesn't happen all the time,
A day i felt like I'm alive,
A day of efforts ,
The day has finally arrive.
I'M GRADUATING.

FINALLY everything is over. Just had my graduation exhibition just now. I could finally relax now for a moment but obviously not too long. I'm waiting for my results now. I was overjoyed yesterday over a lot of things that are happening within. My heart smiled widely that i couldn't even express how joyful am i. The gratitude i have within.

The next step is closer that i could felt it's footsteps. Opening the door that shines the future. The route of a stairs is stepping slowly. =)

The Joy

I've left one last subject to go and can't wait to say hurray to freedom and graduate. The word "FINALLY" , I'm not slacking and working really hard for finals and yea I'm amazed by myself either. Can't believe a girl who was once the laziest person could turn out to be the opposite way round which gave me a word "PROUD" . I was pretty worried about assignments during my finals and i pushed myself to the extend at one point i felt like giving up and I'm glad i didn't and Lu said a very meaningful word that gets me all inspired and emerge myself to stand up and start doing my work immediately. Therefore , i gotta thank James for screwing me when i did something wrong and push me to do things which i don't want to. I'm glad u did thanks jimbo boy. LOL.

I just watched twilight ( yea i know I'm pretty outdated but it's alright I'm catching up back ) so wait up . It's a damn pretty good show. The love of a vampire and a human. Awesome enough that you could see how hard is it if it's from two different world people. Every little bit that they do it's totally different and yet they tried to clicked along because of the power of love.

It's hard to be with someone who is not, the word totally different but just different. The thoughts, the things that we do, the appetite we have, the things we crave for, the future, the culture, the lifestyle, the communication and tons more. But to come to think of it , if you're really deeply in love with this person who is different from you , i do salute and I've tried that before, it's pretty amazing to learn things differently and bare with tolerance to put in effort to learn and understand a person through another way. In a way I'm saying positively but negatively it's every own individual thoughts which able to change their mind is another prospect. In a way why am i saying that it's amazing because both are absorbing different knowledge from different vision of life which makes a person start progressing their maturity within. In my opinion, i do find life is much simpler if I'm not with a complicated partner although at times things might get messed up but it's never hard to get a solution for it.

Every path are made and chose by our own , walk through it with all the ups and downs or switch it. It's never too late to make any decision at our young age because there's more to come in reality that we gotta face probably triple times harder then now. If we can't make a simple decision now how are we gonna put trust in our client's eyes in the reality life? Nothing is harder than the progress of growing from one age to another and life just gets more tough and tougher as we walk further. The vision is wider and path gets much crooked and blockage always happen. So face it , bare with it and fight through it. Life is all about facing the facts and finding solutions to every door. Never too late to make it right but always too late to leave. ( I hope I'm making sense in this sentence because I'm getting all blurred out by now) LOL.

But anyhow, to all my dearest friends , good luck in everything aite!

I'm always here! Never walk away because I'm glued up beside you. =)
