Sorry guys.  I wasn't able to update much.  I've done a few interesting shoots lately but unfortunately, I can't share them here due to privacy issues sigh..  I'm still working on some wedding layouts that I shot a few months ago.  Hope I could clear all my backlogs before 2011.

Christmas is just around the corner.  It's my 4th year spending Xmas here in Brunei.  I miss spending xmas back home so badly. =(  My family, friends, relatives, lots of food, food and more food.. hah!!  And ofcourse, those pretty hot chicks lol..  Anyway, I'll probably be home on the 2nd week of January so I'll see you guys then =)

I took these images out of nowhere.  Another quick and unplanned shoot last 30th of October 2010.

I think unplanned shoots are more likely to be interesting.  I had a chance to play with some gel filters here - courtesy of Master Ar.  God also gave us a beautiful sunset during the shoot.  I should give more compliments on the make-up.  Thanks to Heidi for the awesome work, to Sam and the rest of the y current company .lol. They got a lot of ongoing projects. hmmn. i was thinking if i finally decided to work with them will i be having a time to write down another nonsense blog entry?? hahaha. i saw the wmodels - thanks guys for organising this shoot.  To my co-shooters Ar and Az, thanks dudes.  What's next cos' I'm bored.

Oh!  I went for a job interview just now!  Company's portfolio is quite good.  I think I'd consider them as one of the best Architectural designers in Brunei but they do work like mad men..  Really hardworking guys.  I don't think I can adopt that working style easily.  We are also hardworking in our company but we don't just work.  We play, enjoy and have fun at work lol!  The most important thing is that you love what you are doing =)  Stay tuned..  Let's see how much they offer hahaha.

I have been idle in photography for months.  No updates.. Nothing!  Boo!!  I've been busy covering a few functions.  Thankfully, they're not boring.  I'm starting to love and get the hang of it actually.  Meeting new people is more exciting!!  Well, I'm still catching up on some of my backlogs.  It's never ending.

Oh yeah, it's been 2 months since I got my new horse.  Not actually my dream ride Evo but I'm really enjoying it!  Looks like I'm gonna limit my monthly allowance for 5 years.  This means no movies, no going out and no drinking!!  No dating?!?!  No more new camera equipment??  Boo!!!  I'm still hoping to get a second body before end of 2010.  Hope I get it!

On a positive note, this was my recent shoot on the 29th Of October 2010.  Another collaboration with Sabah based HMUA/Stylist Petrus Boyd (aka The Rock) lol.  It's my first time working with model/photographer, Eva.  I was planning to shoot her a long time ago but she didn't give me a chance til now..  lol.  Thank you so much guys.  Hope to work with you again soon.

A quick session with Sam last Sunday (3rd of October 2010).

I miss shooting since I haven't done any in a month.  Been busy lately with other stuff.  My parents and cousin paid me a visit.  Few weeks ago, we also moved to new apartment.  Way bigger than the old one.  I like the place but it adds another 6km to my journey to office..  I hope I can get back on track after I settle everything.  My parents will be flying-off tonight to Manila.  Looks like things will be back to normal again.  I will miss them and my mom's cooking =)  Now, I'm looking for a cook..  Anyone??  lol

Back to the images, a big thank you to Sam, Andre and Moore for the shoot.  I hope to work with you again guys.  To Master Ar. and Azme for assisting me though it's always been a rush. 

Ohh and Sam is the vocalist of the band Karacoma.

Layouts: lee abrio

My first wedding assignment last 06-08 of August 2010.  Here are some of the edited layouts.  I actually had these photos printed in a photo book and they look great in prints as well but I think I need to re-calibrate my monitor - saw some minor color cast on some layouts.  Will post some non-layouts photos soon.

It has been a month since I played with my camera..  Ohhh.. I miss shooting a lot.  I've been busy with so many things lately.  My parents visited me here in Brunei.  They will be staying here for 6 weeks and I still have a few editing on board.  I also have a few reservations to shoot my clients early this month and mid October.  I need a shoot badly guys..  I mean personal or private sessions..  ANYONE??  lol
