FHM August 2008 - Featuring the Red Bull Rookies

Finally my first proper magazine spread, I was so excited to get the mag from the shop - it's a good issue too with the 100 most wanted women.

FHM Malaysia may not be as racy as some of the other publications in Thailand, Singapore and Indonesia but they are doing what they can and the new editor Joe Balan is trying to push the boundaries and be a bit more creative with the content.

I did a photoshoot recently for the Red Bull Rookies for publication in FHM and it came out with 3 whole pages!

With proper photo accreditation - woo!

The following 2 pages are like this..

It was all shot strobist style on location, it was a challenging and fun shoot. I hope to get the chance to do more stuff like that in the future.

I suggest you grab the mag and check it out now - support FHM Malaysia!

Valerie Ebal - Beauty, Classic & Fear - Part 2

Sorry, more of the same facial expressions - but I gotta finish up after Part 1!

I tried for a little bit of variety with the last 3 sets, the first one continues after the last picture, when I've added some colour to the situation. These are more beauty/mag/FHM kinda shots that I was going for.

Trying to get a bit of a sexy look going on, seen as people seem to fixate on the names I give pictures (when the names don't mean anything...) I'm going to stick to numbers.

Valerie Ebal - Urban Decay - Part 1

Here is the first proper set of the Urban Decay shoot, these are the first 3.5 sets, another 3.5 to come after this. As you know what I did this weekend....here are the rest!

The first set was out front with all the broken glass, I went for an xpro oldskool kind of look, I thought the green tint fits well with the environment and the decay.

Seiko Resistance IS Futile - SNFK11K Automatic Watch

My watch has been at the service center for quite some time...much to my annoyance, and my backup watch completely packed up in Krabi leaving me watchless...which for some reason I find rather uncomfortable.

I've been looking around for something in my budget, then out popped some new released by Seiko! The SNFK series.

Something like the Seiko 5 series (7s26 Caliber), but quite a different look - it's also an automatic watch.

A big face not much different from the rugged outlook of a divers watch (43mm without crown 53mm lug to lug).

Seiko SNFK11K

It has a beautifully crafted knurled fixed bezel which brings the details of the watch out along with the crown which is also knurled - it's not screw down though.

Carpark Cross with Kimberlycun and Ie-Tsen

During the weekend one of Kim's friends was around, and I'd had an idea for a photoshoot in my head for a while..so we headed off to a carpark to take some urban portraiture.

I used artificial lighting as the carpark was very dark, mostly an SB-800 with a reflective umbrella and a naked SB-600.

Before the shoot I had a good idea of the look I wanted to achieve by using a cross-processed style.

I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, let me know what you think and which picture is your favourite.

Also if you are interested in any portfolio shots or have any interesting ideas for a photoshoot let me know.
