More of Fadil & Ayu

It's really something when I come home with really nice shots. As I imagine some pre-visualised shots that I want to get during Fadil & Ayu's wedding reception on the 6th of December, 2008 on an outdoor shoot at The Lake Gardens, Kuala Lumpur, nature took it's toll and set rain on us.

We were stuck in the Bandar Baru Community Hall at around 5pm. The reception was done, and the caterer's were packing up. We were supposed to head off to The Lake Gardens but it started raining. Ayu was feeling bad about it because she really wanted some good shots, after the session I did in Kuchai Lama. It is situations like these that I love. I was put off-balance from what I planned, and I love working under pressure. It's sort of an adrenaline rush for me. First thing on top of my head was to look around and made use of the available environment. I have a speedlight with me with a remote radio transmitter, and it was my saviour (I carry this all the time for my weddings). With one light, I'm confident that I can shape the light in any way that I please.

I got some ideas and informed Ayu & Fadil what I had in mind. Ayu was relieved after I convinced her that we can still get good shots around the hall, and even more so after viewing the shots on the LCD. After a while, the rain started to slow down and we just headed to The Lake Gardens for a long shot. Turns out it stopped raining at the Lake Gardens! Thank God! We took some shots that we wanted there and head home on time at 6.30pm. All this within 1½ hours (inclusive of 20mins drive from Bandar Baru Sentul to The Lake Gardens, Kuala Lumpur). Pretty amazing in my opinion. My credit goes to Nazir, who was kind enough to asssist me during these shoots. Cheers!

This is somewhere on the top level of the Community Hall. It was an open space and I wanted to create an industrial feel to it, with all the metal beams and rafters on the roof structure.

Here's some shots taken on the nearby staircases. The steps makes nice background.

One of Fadil's friends said that this photo looks like they were out in a middle of the jungle.

  4. pistOL7, Nikon D90 ok. Kit lens 18-105, saya tak pasti, sebab tak pernah pakai lens tu. Namun, generally, semua range lens Nikon adalah OK. Cuma beza antara lens-lens tersebut adalah "extra features", seperti VR (vibration reduction) dan maximum aperture yang besar, seperti f2.8 atau f1.8.
