unintended hiatus.

:(

My laptop is currently undergoing intensive surgery right now, so I am unable to edit any pictures, thus no more entries for several more days. Sigh. I feel so sad without having my pictures...

Until my laptop gets better. Peace.

first model.

When I first got into photography and went crazy with my camera, my sister was the one person in my family who would willingly model for a good while, until she thought it was too much. haha. But this post goes out to you, sister! :D

take me away.

Sometimes I just want to get away from it all. I just want to drop everything that's stressing me out and just be free to...be.This always happens - this familiar feeling of stress taking over me. I just want to go somewhere far away and forget about it all.

One day, I'll look back on this and realize how far I've come. Realize how much this doesn't matter. Realize how much more worth it it will be. One day.

Until then, I'm just going to look at that long road ahead. But it's okay, as long as I'm surrounded by God, friends, and family.

I got this. I got this.

Breathe in. Breathe out. Repeat.

photoshoot - 4/3/10.

This is the second round of models that said they were willing to help out. The lighting was pretty harsh because we went at a bad time in the afternoon, but still managed to get some good shots! Not to mention the models were so good! I just need to learn how to pose them. Especially guys. Sorry Tracy! :(

By the way, this is at the Woodbridge Lake. So pretty with the gazebo! I want to go there again and shoot at night or during a sunset. :)

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! It was really fun and I'm so blessed to have such attractive friends. ;)

Here goes.

hehe! Look! Birds! I didn't think I'd get a good image...or maybe it's not that good. haha! They're so cute because they're fat and tiny. hehe.



tracy moore.
Please model for me again! I will think of better ways to pose you. heh. :P






emma tzeng.
"I'll only take a few. But that's it." Even though she dressed up for it! She didn't even want to pose for pictures...she wanted to take them instead. :P





Shout out to Shirley and Reuelle for helping out, too! I didn't get to shoot them. :( Always next time~!

photoshoot - 4/2/10.

I talked about it with a few of my photography lover friends, and we always wanted to shoot pictures. However, it never happened, so I decided to take the initiative and start something up. Once everyone got back from spring break, I messaged a mess of people asking if they wanted to do something. This is the first of the two days. Planning was a bit hectic, but I have learned how to better plan these things. Heh!

This is in the Arts part of UCI. Pretty interesting place to shoot at.

From this photoshoot, I realized that I do tend to shoot a certain way, and I really like to do portrait/candid shots. I need to break out of this habit! Feedback is greatly appreciated.

Shout out to my BEAUTIFUL friends who were so willing to model for me and the other people who shot. They were SO GOOD. Couldn't have asked for better models! I hope I did your beauty justice. :)
