Pic #1,
Nice posing (love the deco with the flower)...well organised of lighting, except the little light reflection on the shoulder and forehead.

Pic #2,
Underexposed......hmm can give more lights

Pic #3,
Love it ....R u using the bottle to create the light effect on face.

Hope to c u often in MRT....need to tweak the timing..

that's all?
really that bad ah?

yo G***!!

frankly these are standard portrait shots. imo, wearing a bridal gown doesn't mean it's a wedding photo. i think here, as with some other bridal shoots here in CS, there's one very important element missing, and it's the groom!

even when i flip thru magazines with lovely gowns and models and surroundings, i dun get the "wedding" feel. it's just a fashion shoot to me, and while nice, does not tell me "wedding" in my head.

i mentioned this becos u titled it "wedding studio shoot". i know i'm probably benig anal, but since u've got me in "weddnig" mood, i come in expecting something different to normal portraits. maybe it's "zhi ye bing"

as for the shots, i think they are fine, i like #1, altho her expression seems a little unnatural. like forcing smile like that. also with bridals, u might wanna try including full body shots (i'm sure u did, just never post) as the gown is in full glory when taken full body.

well i'm late for work now.. ahah just my opinion. and last but not least... BOH JIO!!!!!!!!

1) love the catchlight, dont like the lips, dont like the flower with long stalk.
2) love the flower, dont like the catchlight, dont like the pose (too model-shoot-style)
3) very creative, but the bottle seems to bounce too much light and model left face a bit over (contrast too high?)

FWAH~~~~~~!!!!!! G*** ju si G***!!!!

You use which mode to shoot huh? 'S' mode huh? No wonder all so 'SWEE'!!!

[Witness]

well.... i feel that the wedding mood is not really there in these series....

what about introducting a "groom" in to portray bliss instead?

Yo Joho,
i guess i named the title wrongly in the first place to give everyone the wrong idea. me bad. bad.
i guess 'My first studio shoot' should be appropriate.
thanks for sharing tips with me as i have lots to learn from the PROs here.
always wanted a studio shoot and finally got a chance to do it. hope i will fare better next time round. thanks for yr time. cheers bro....
Last but not least.... your hp never on what....
