Just finished our first shoot at the abandoned railway bridge at Sunset Way yesterday. Kai, Natalie and I couldn't help laughing most of the time. My hands couldn't stop shaking because I was laughing too hard at all the random things. I enjoy shooting Natalie in an environment she's comfortable and happy in. Kai and I kept saying silly things to make her laugh to capture those magical moments.

Hmm, somehow the shots we took during sunset didn't turn out very well. >.< I think I got the wrong exposure...

After 3 model shoots so far, I've been thinking about what's lacking. It's kind of funny because certain shots did make sense to me and looked quite nice when I was taking them, but when I go through those hundreds of photos, I don't really know how to piece them together. I wonder if I started losing the 'focus' halfway through the shoot... I'd say that the photos from each shoot seems to be getting better, bit by bit, but I just can't shake off that strange feeling. So, I'd sit there for a few hours, going through all the photos over and over again, pick out a few to edit and upload them.

I've been trying to find the right words to describe them and put the pieces together to form a story. And make some sense out of them, somehow...

Some people think that photos are enough to tell a story, without any words present. Maybe I'm just too used to the illustration style of always having words and pictures together. I don't really need a 'wow' factor in my photos. To me, they're more like documentaries or something.

I think I really need to expand my vocabulary. XD
