congrats to the 4 curtin graduates - johnson, jasmine, meiyun & angeline. 5 actually, as the 5th graduate is me! events like convocation wasn’t my cup of chamomile tea, thus i skipped it and along with liang, we did a graduation shoot for them instead, sideways style…

at the convocation reception.


the fantastic raffles convention ballroom. look at the ceiling.

here’s a behind the scenes shot by liang of me attempting a shot of johnson springing over me with the majestic ballroom ceiling as the backdrop. i thought it would be interesting to share such shots, so that you peeps out there can associate with the pic and our style of working better.


i thought meiyun’s expression in this pic was misleading but overjoyed. will you get so engrossed in posing for the camera that you remain so euphoric when letting go of your bf’s hand? i do not know. you would have to ask her. haha…

what the heck? only until this juncture did i realize that most of the shots posted above aren’t graduation-related. my bad, as we were enjoying the casual shoot around/within the convocation area.
next up would be a marathon series of kickass graduation photos. enjoy…
i like this shot. the light from outside the building just made everything look better.

okay, you may wonder why weren’t the 3 pink paper bags removed. you may say that we were lazy, but i thought the pink bags added some colour to the photo and breaks the regularity of such composition. fy(extra)i, the bags contained their graduation robes. haha.

love the architectural lines of the building.





yet another great behind-the-scenes capture by liang. i personally like this shot alot. photographers ought to be role models and lead their clients to how they want them to pose for the camera. and yes, i looked like i have psycho-motor problems here. left hand left leg, right hand right leg. who was just commenting on how to lead by example eh???




johnson with the paper bag resembled some model in a tv advertisement. i cant really recall which ad it was, but nevertheless, great architectural lines once again to complement this shot.

erm, no comments on his expression…

this was an attempt to imitate those master photographers doing motion blur for pre wedding shoots. it turned out that the shutter speed was way too slow and the end result looked like ….

attempted a cheeky shot beside this man who was soundly asleep.

they got up and created a din by throwing their head gear high up, but that man was still unmoved! zzz…
p.s. my sincere apologies to angeline. this attempt landed her with a minor minor accident.

behind the scenes once again. as i was preparing johnson for a shoot, liang actually snapped this up.

and this was the end result - super man graduate.



graduate jump over me the wall.

it’s composed as a ‘hello’ if you can’t figure out our efforts.


taken from another angle. like the reflection on the tiles.

exercise cut! what a shaggadelic shoot it was. look at liang on his knees. haha. but i thought both of us felt a great sense of satisfaction from this session. three cheers to everyone, including steve (meiyun’s bf) for rendering help in one way or another. i do not know who and why that uncle was in the photo, but i still would like to thank him for ‘playing a part’ in this shot. haha.
