I was wondering whether I overdo the framing and small decorations at times..
Thanks for the encouragement.. :lovegrin:

:thumbsup:
Nice photos as usaual, coupled with the layout bring out the mood...

Great work! :thumbsup: Signature Kongo style. Like the way you add in those small items.

 

[Kongo]

Thanks.. ^^
I didnt use flash for this series, I guess those U shape, or rather reverse U shape lights in her eyes are actually due to my big head blocking part of the window lights reflection.. :bsmilie:

always admire your ability to tell a story by lens and some fun post-processing... BTW, some of the U shape lights from the eyes, are those done by Ring/O-flash?

Thanks, glad it works for you.. ^^

I enjoy this series...very refreshing, very nice:thumbsup:

Yeah.. like to soak in air-con Cafe.. haha..
Always sweat like hell when doing outdoor, especially in S'pore..
:sweat::sweat:

Wah lau... this series is just like your previous series.
Very refreshing and light.
It's that kind of series that just makes you want to go outdoors in the bright sun and
walk into a cafe and start shooting away...!
Great job!

Not sure if I changed style.. but try out new processing & stuff every now & then.. mostly failure.. lol

Glad you like it.. ^^

Nice Series. Inspirational. :thumbsup::heart:

 

[Kongo]

haha.. no softbox lah..

Think I shoot either custom WB or Kelvin settings there.. want to keep the WB consistent so it's easier to tune during post processing.. exposure wise manual all the way as usual.. I like to over expose a bit to get a more pleasing skin tone, softness partly due to lens, settings and pp.. I usually lower the contrast and saturation settings for better details and skin tone..

Woah! :heart::lovegrin:

I see a super duper softbox in her christmas tree ball :bsmilie: just kidding.
