Goodbye to my beloved supermodel, Alessandra!

Here come to an end of working together with Alessandra, this will be the last photoshooting with her. She is the 1st Iplehouse EID I ever falling in love with. I was totally attracted by her caucasian look, with those sexy eyes and lips which I can't resist to buy her on June 2010. After almost a month, she came into my life and become my 1st and ever supermodel. We have lot of 1st time memories, 1st time sewing for such a big doll, 1st time doing outdoor shooting, 1st time brought her to a fashion show which was the most crazy thing I have done with her and etc. Time fly, is been 6 months I hanging around and working with her, she never dissapoint me even once when doing photoshoot, till now we have produced lots of nice photos together.

The final last shooting for Alessandra, I have transformed her into an indian goddess with a bright red exotic indian saree. She look amazing when wearing it and I can't stop snapping photo of her and it end up with 900++ photos taken until 3a.m. I was trying not to let go any chance to take the best photo of her since it is the last chance for me. I am glad that the photo end up gorgeous as usual. Honestly, it is quite hard to say goodbye to Alessandra, and I know I will sure miss her a lot after she leaving me to USA. Take care, my beloved supermodel......

NiGel.CHiA Bridal Couture & photography at Kellies Castle

It was prior to my brother's and brother in law registration of marrige and we decided to go for a outdoor bridal shooting at Kellies Castle, Ipoh. Early in the morning, after we had done the make-up and hair, with the bride in NiGel.CHiA bridal couture, we headed to our destination and reached around 12p.m. It took RM50 for us to enter for photoshooting. Since it was saturday, there were quite lot of tourist visiting the castle and we had to avoid to have any tourist on the background.

Heavy rain came in the middle of photoshoot! Thus, we had no choice but to do it inside the castle while waiting the rain to stop. After some time, the rain slow down and we decided to have some shoot under the rain and we had some great shoot! We had total of 300++ photos and I had pick the best 18 shoots. Enjoy it!

These few shoots is done under the rain and I think they looked really nice.

NiGel.CHiA Bridal Couture outdoor shooting

It is a bridal couture commission by a Belgium Iplehouse BJD owner and I have taken the chance to give it an outdoor photoshoot with my Alessandra before sending it out. It was a deep V ball gown with seqean detail at the waist line and some texture design at the dress with sheer chiffon. It was nearly afternoon when I took Alessandra in this bridal couture to the back of my collage where there have a great view of grassland and trees. The sun was above the sky and I have no choice but to search for a shade for photoshooting since I don't wish to have my Alessandra turn yellow faster with UV ray. Too bad the reflector I had ordered haven't arrived yet, so I had to use the flash to brighten up Alessandra under the back light condition. Nearly 200++ photos had been taken and I am quite satisfied with the result.
