Wedding Caricature: Work in Progress

Last week I was asked by an old friend to make her caricatures of her elder sister and her spouse for wedding invitation. The progress is still 75%, and now I am supposed to continue working on the commission. But apparently my sister forgot to include the pen tablet when packing my laptop. Gotta back home for the stylus. Imma put it on my blog soon after getting approval from the client. In the mean time, I will just give you some rough sketches I made with the help from my little pumpkin. These all are her ideas. I am just the executor... ;) Enjoy!

The first sketch seems okay, but she is afraid the buffalo will appear more dominant than the brides themselves. Then she came up with the second sketch ;)

Okay...then I transferred 'em into my laptop so I can draw in digital...

Reminiscence

There lots of memories I have with this camera. The very first time I learned how to use Digital SLR...

Here are some of the best shots I managed to capture with this camera:

My Colleague's Pre Wedding

Thanks for both mas Toni and mba Eva for your trust in me working on this pre wedding project. Tho we almost lost moments for most photos were taken by the dusk, the results are not bad. ;)

These are some of the great moments I managed to capture with limited gears...Dont forget to VIEW MORE PHOTOGRAPHS HERE!

Clay Craft

Last weekend my sister and her friend were so busy making a craft from clay. They did it the whole day. Anyway, I didn't follow the process, but I am quite satisfied with the result. Here we go!

But wait...you wanna know the initial design of this clay-craft? Just simply click the bonus below!

28 High School Year Book

I was asked by my brother to take his class year book. The theme was 'Fall' and their costume mostly looked pale. Here are some of my shots. Umm, these are not official, for the primary photos were taken by my colleague, papz.

For Sale: Adidas Vespa

a couple of weeks ago, I bought this pair of shoes...but unfortunately, it is too big for my foot. The shoes are way oversized, so I decided to sell it. Anyone? You can click here to go to my online store

My Colleague in Action

Hello guys,

In this post, I am showing you some of my photo retouch projects that I been experimenting for the last week. That's why I rarely post or comment and blogwalking to my friends' blog. *Sorry! :)

For the first photo, I used Adobe Photoshop to spice it up. Levels, selective colors, and color balance adjusting were used here. Unfortunaltely, I forgot the steps I made for the photo. *LOL
I put a texture image at the top layer and applied overlay in blending options.

Pap in Action

For the second photos, I retouched them in Adobe Lightroom 3 software using my own-made preset. I know that I have been experimenting on this preset log time ago, back in the last quarter of year 2010. Lucky you I have shared it on the web. Here are the photos:

If you are interested in using my preset, please give me credit for the photo or you can simply tell me where you put it online (the link of the image).

This is for the bonus photo:
I know that it is definitely not good to experiment on the food photo tone. But, I wanna break the rule! Only for this photo. :)

Trenz Sandwich

"Sharing great taste with friends,
this is what Trenzshipis all about"

Trenz Sandwich

For Trenz, friendship is everything. Friends are there to share our feelings with one another, to go hang out with and to be together through thick and thin. A good friend is hard to find, but most of the time we tend to take our friendship for granted.

To tighten these friendship bonds, Trenz Sandwich Crackers and Mini Crackers make their presence among Indonesian youths. With a TrenzShip or ‘true friendship’ policy, Trenz will make your work, break or hangout time a whole lot more fun. What makes it even better is that Trenz always tastes better when shared with others!

My First Professional Photographer Experience: Day 1

last weekend was the first time for me being a professional photographer. I was asked to take a pre-wed photos for my friend. The client is Wandita, and she is going to married in the first quarter of next year. The photo session was taken at Pulau Umang, Pandeglang, Banten.

We started to leave Jakarta at 11.30 pm Friday and I mostly slept during the trip (hehe). Anyway, the trip was awfully tiring, for we missed lots of U turn. I even got my forehead bruised when the car flew high in the air avoiding hole. We eventually arrived at Pulau Umang at 8.30 am the next day. We then had our breakfast and prepared for the first photo session.
