Winter Shoots

Winter is quiet period for wedding here in Canberra, every year I get to shoot a destination wedding to get away from the cold, so did I for Ondine and Eddy’s wedding last months.
Also along the exciting assignment to shoot Scotty and Nige’ Rock Band, Lane One Form, I did a few modeling shoots.
Too busy with the edits and planning for other shoots, I though I should take some time to post something on my blog to keep my readers, you, in the loop with some of my recent works.
Tomorrow will be the biggest fashion shoot I ever set up.
It would involve heaps of talents and local businesses.
Special thank to Rob of Performance Wedding Car for letting us shoot in his brand new mega studio, The white room.
Also mega thanks to Sandi of Tan This, in the Canberra Centre, to join the project providing spray tan for all the models.
It’s gonna be massive, it’s gonna be the biggest stdio fashion in Canberra that I know of. Stay tuned.
In the mean time, some of my recent works.

BTS: Behind The Scene Photo Shoots

I always try to share my experience with other inspiring photographers and models, most of my modeling shoots are followed by a videographer.

On the Nomad Photography Youtube Chanel, I try to post as often as possible all my behind the scene shoots showing various details of a fashion shoot, lighting, composition, the gears that I use and most importantly the way I work around my models and locations.

With the best tools in the world, if you are not confident and don’t communicate with your models your photos will show it.

I really enjoy (photo) shooting models and also want the fun to be the same for all the crew and especially for my models.

Make sure to subscribe to my Youtube Chanel to get all the latest news and videos.

Amanda Choong reloaded.

I’ve been quite busy shooting, day and night, and had barely time to edit the photos from the shoot with Amanda (from this post).

Amanda is a young UNI student who seriously desires to get involved in the modeling industry.

I’m very happy the way she gets involved and followed my direction during the shoot. She’s still young and yet very talented, no doubt she’ll get her look into the fashion industry.

Next model to feature this wall will be Tamsin Starick (reloaded from this post).

Here come the photos.
Model: Amanda Choong

Rachelle reloaded

From a recent shoot with Rachelle Wood, during the cold in winter on top of the Mt Ainslie, in Canberra.

I started shooting Rachelle for the first time last year and immediately saw in her the potential of a growing Model.

Rachelle is very easy to work with, she is very volunteering and don’t take life too much seriously.

Modeling poses are sometimes awkward but the images have more impact and the model is put forward. It didn’t take me too long to have a good work flow with Rachelle on the set.

This is the third time that we had a shoot together and Rachelle is becoming one of my favorite models.

Room for more images.

Models on the top of Canberra

Another shoot in the cold with my favorite model Rachelle and another young and talented model : Emma.

This is the second time that I shoot Rachelle during this winter. Despite the cold, both models showed professionalism and did a really good job.

Once again I put the Canon 5D Mark II and the Nikon D700 to the test and I shot more with the Nikon than the previous shoot.

Both cameras perform beautifully but I still have my preference for the Canon for its bigger file size (more mega pixels) and the color rendition. But again, after post, one can barely tell, especially for web based sizes.

For this shoot, I had the pleasure to have the visit of my Dad. He was “responsible” for my love of photography and it was really cool to have Dad on set.

Check out the behind the scene video under the photos. The video was shot my my brother Vincent. The shoot was on Mt Ainslie in Canberra.

Enjoy.
