My first studio shoot (me as photographer)

21 Jan 2009

I went for my first studio shoot with me as the photographer. My greatest obstacle is to teach the models to pose. The models are not professional ones so need to teach. But it's the blind leading the blind. In the end, I told the models to treat me like I'm invisible. I will treat them like the subjects in church. Hahaha. I didn't make use of the studio lighting. I was shooting the process while the professional photographer is shooting.

These pictures are taken with a Canon 30D with 50mm lens.


This model swung the scarf more than 10 times for jus to acheive this effect. I took this picture while standing at the back of the main photographer. Of course his pictures turn out prettier. I'm very fortunate to be able to take one like this.

She is a mother of two and still look so pretty! Her big eyes are a draw. Doesn't she look like a Malaysian actress? Li Xinjie...


This is a happy model. She is always smiling. Her photos are taken with a smile because she looks better with a smile. This was taken when we told her that her shooting is over and she can take a rest. Happy....

These are two of the other photographers who like me are experiencing studio photography for the first time.
