Happy New Year?

Can’t believe we’re already 12 days into the new year, been so busy with full packed wedding events and had just covered another sanding event on Sunday. Now comes the laborious part; the editing stage, the wrong aka trying to be smarty pants editing can mess up the whole picture definitely. Something I just tried out, does this editing work?;)

Farewell 2009

It’s been a great year, the highlights of 2009 for me are working for a tv programme under Discovery, had the opportunity to get on a private plane and flown on it. All in the name of work;). Few days ago, I have just completed a project for  a Ministry which took me more than a month plus plus,  gaining access to places which I wouldn’t have otherwise.

I have two more weddings coming up within the next two weeks and then I’ll be taking a long break and restructuring my services. I’ll be doing more portrait sessions, commercial and corporate events and that’s most likely to leave me with not a lot of time left for wedding coverage.  I may only take one per month or every two month next year…another reason being I want to grow as a photographer. It’s like if you stay in one place all the time, that’s all you get to know. I want to venture into different field, some things I just got to get my hands dirty to have a feel of it, big difference in knowing/reading and actually doing it.

Few pictures from the past few days,




I did these for a menu last week

Another new week

Charity work

Doing my part for the community and something I spare some of my time whenever possible. Some info regarding Sounds of Hope can be found here under Notes.

Here’s some pictures from the charity gala night on the 3rd Oct, I didn’t take as many pictures as I was making myself useful and helping out from ticketing to ushering.

There will be a booth selling SOH merchandise being set up at the Rugby Match Padang Belapan on the 24th Oct 09, all the proceed will go to help out those in need. A big thank you to Bank Islam Brunei Darussalam for providing the booth and also to the other sponsors who has been helping SOH so far.

Back from the lag

Photoshop was lagging bad, took more than 2 minutes to start up and by then ate up 1 Gb of memory, opening up a 70kb picture pumped up the memory usage to 1.8 Gb!!! Took a few hours deleting some diy actions and troubleshooting but no luck, removed everything and the unistallation took more than an hour! By the time I was done with installing PS, it was 3AM.Can’t wait for SSD to come down in price, that would help somewhat. First two pics I edited , wahey it works again.
