one fine day...

at last! photoshoot after soooo long! our concept was inspired by the natural lighting effect.. shots were taken inside a room, quite dark actually since no daylight enters the room. used 3-4 lights in order to achieve the natural lighting effect. yey! it was fun.. it's been almost 4 months since the last time i joined a fashion photo shoot.

we wanted to make our comeback shoot special, that's why we chose a bit daring theme. thanks to everyone involved and for making this shoot successful! til next shoot! :D

model on this set ::
Gab Mc Donough.

make up artist ::

i edited this photo in order to achieve an afternoon glow/ feel. but the original photo is already amazing. kudos to Roget's lights. our photos look just like we used natural day light..

Genevie Cua pre-debut shoot

it's been a while since i've had photoshoot in a studio. we've decided to rent a studio for this shoot mainly because we don't have the equipment yet.

for the pre-debut, i was thinking to have at least 2 layouts. definitley the beauty shot, feel fresh, natural beauty would be one of the layout. then another one for the formal set. but then we've decided to extend our shoot so that we could accommodate another set. haha!

anyway, here are some shots we took for the debutant. happy 18th birthday Gen!

my new Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5

remember my previous post regarding my question whether to buy a new lens or not? link and link here. and if ever, what should i buy? well i have finally decided to buy a new lens last october 17, 2008. had the chance to go for a very short business trip to hong kong. i was thinking whether or not buy a new lens the whole time.. but since i wasn't able to accomplish anything and my trip had to be so short... (T.T i miss hong kong!) i bought a new lens for me just the night before i go back home.

i've decided to buy the Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 ultra wide angle lens. since i still have my good ol' trusty Tamron, i've decided to buy the prime lens in the future.. besides, i get frustrated if my tamron lens can't go any wider than 28. hahah! so i thought i really needed a wide angle lens. and so i went to the store, asked for the lens, took out my wallet and presented my credit card. and i will be paying for it by next month.. sheeeshh.. i really need to look for other ways to earn extra NOW!

owell. i knew this lens wouldn't disappoint me, so the moment i bought this lens, i took some shots already.. and here are some of the shots i took with my new baby.


bought my new lens in this area, mongkok. took a few shots right after buying my new baby..


i was waiting for my flight and decided to play around with my cam's picture styles. so here are the results. no editing done with the pics.. just adjusted my cam's picture style!


another modified picture style shot..


and another haha! i love black and white! love the new lens by the way! UWA!


now the best part of this lens is, now, i can take my own pictures hahaha!

yey! i am happy but my pocket is angry..

lelouch lamperouge figma

released by max factory
ban presto figma
lelouch lamperouge
from the recently concluded anime, code geass.

this is one of my favorite figure so far. i never thought i'd like figma figures this much. since when i first saw some them, i wasn't that impressed since you can see their joints obviously.

but since i like lelouche's character so much, i've decided to buy one.

lelouch figma, lelouch lamperouge, lelouch lamperouge figma, max factory, figma figure

this figure is super poseable. from its head, shoulders, elbows, wrists, waist, down to its knees and, ankles. changeable facial expressions and hands. great details, and what i'm surprised the most is it's rubberized material, in this figure's case, it's his suit/ uniform (upper body only) that's made of rubber. and oh, even though it comes with a figma stand, lelouch definitely can stand on his own. haha!

lelouch figma, lelouch lamperouge, lelouch lamperouge figma, max factory, figma figure
box and packaging. figma packaging is just great.

lelouch figma, lelouch lamperouge, lelouch lamperouge figma, max factory, figma figure
well protected figma figure and accessories.

lelouch figma, lelouch lamperouge, lelouch lamperouge figma, max factory, figma figure
figma figures always comes with several accessories, that include facial expresion, extra hands, weapons or accessories, hands holder, figma stand and figma plastic bag to contain all your unused parts or accessories.

lelouch figma, lelouch lamperouge, lelouch lamperouge figma, max factory, figma figure
lelouch can stand on his own! without the figma stand!

pvc figures wishlist:: updated 2008.10.19

here's the latest update on my wish list. i got 2 new toys! the belldandy 1/8 scale figure and a new figma kanu unchou of ikki tousen figure, which was not in my wish list but i bought it since i've been thinking to buy one of her figures.. the kallen standfield and c.c. from the anime hit series code geass figures that i was watching on ebay are hoaxes.. there are 2, i think they are dummy accounts, that made a huge jump with their bids. if my guess is right, i think the seller himself made those accounts and made his own bid.. forgot the exact figure but i think the item's original bid price was around 6 usd, then those face accounts mad a bid price of 30+ usd? hahah! owell..

to buy or not to buy

i was assigned by my company again to go to hong kong in order to meet and conduct training to our project's users today. i shall be back this saturday. it's my first short trip to hk for work which did not allow me to go around, see something new and do a little shopping. though i already have some things in my mind that i want to buy. some wish list that up til now, just a few hours before my trip, could not decide wether i'm gonna buy or not..

i'm still thinking if i am going to buy a new lens and, a new nintendo ds for me and my brother.. or maybe i should buy them next time.. haha! also, i was hoping i could see and buy some of the toys/ figures i've been wanting to have too! sheesh! my trip is just for a couple of days (5 days to ba exact including the trip to and going home) and i guess i'm gonna spend more than that of a 2-3 weeks trip i had before..

anyway.. wish me luck and the soon i get to decide, the better haha! i'm sorry, i know there are other bigger problems out there..

hmm just want to add for a few things though, these are a few happenings i'm looking forward to this month.

october 19, 2008 - pre nuptial photoshoot for my best friend. (one main reason why i was so tempted to buy me a new lens)

october 24 or 25, 2008 - pre debut shoot for a friend.

october 26, 2008 - our very own comeback fashion shoot! (another reason why i was soooo tempted to buy a new lens)

Plurk

i don't really know what they call this type of social network thing, but it's pretty addictive. Plurk offers people a fun way to interact, stay connected and, keep in touch. i've heard they refer to it as a micro blog site, since you can put in whatever you are doing, thinking, hoping, wishing, etc right now. you can even share an image, link and youtube video.

a lot of my friends are addicted to it. i on the other hand, having difficulties in expressing myself sure do find time to plurk even a tiny irrelevant thought i want to share, has been logging into my plurk account eversince i joined. and til now, my karma just keeps going up. :D

if you want to know more about plurk. click the link below and become my fan. haha!
http://plurk.com/redeemByURL?from_uid=3162140&check=-969023682&s=1

another cool think about this service is that it allows you to plurk using your mobile.

phplurk.com offers Filipino plurk addicts to plurk even when you're on the go. there are some FAQ's available on the net on how you could use their service, feel free to browse at them. phplurk for plurk mobile.

so happy plurking to all!

canon eos 5d mark ii

the latest model and i think the most awaited model of canon releases this year is non other than the Canon EOS 5D Mark II.

i am really hoping i could get one myself in the future. this is a full frame dslr. announced last september 17, 2008.

it has a lot of pretty interesting features and upgrades. not to mention its new 21 MP CMOS sensor, Digic 4 processor and full HD video recording!

i know it's a digital slr, supposed to capture photos and still images, but i was really in aw upon seeing the sample clips of this monster. Canon really pulled it through this year with this model's release.

to read a full review, visit dpreview.

also wait for the awesome sample video clips available online. they really are amazing! so far this is the most popular clips released online. untouched, not edited, just resized.

personal update

haven't been posted to my blog for a while.

i've been busy with some stuff. here are just some updates of my exciting life haha!

i've been to Microsoft .Net training for 5 days. i was sent by my company i work with to have this training. it was an introductory crash course of Microsoft Visual Basic Programming with the .Net framework or environment. aside from Visual Basic, developing web pages using ASP .Net was also included in the course.

i've also been working on a project for my elementary friend. it's a small sales inventory system. hehe.. i really need extra income so i've been finding ways to earn more money for myself to spend. but the thing is, having this type of sideline which is similar to your daily job is really hard. imagine programming 8 hours a day, sometimes even more, then going home, again to program.. the project is almost done though. should be finished within the week. i really do hope to deliver it by saturday.

next something major! i really want to have a shoot really badly! me and my photog friends are organizing a shoot this coming october 26! i really want to have one soon. it's been 4 months or more since the last time i had a fashion shoot! aaarggh! all the while, i was just shooting some events, my pamangkin and my toys/ figures! waaah! we do hope to find 2 models who would join us for the shoot. it's going to be our come back shoot. i am really hoping it to be like an fhm kind of shoot!

other than those, just work. haha! busyness.. anyway. i will try to post more often on my blog.. i really need extra income hahah!

it's been one year since i joined google adsense and til now i just earned around 12 USD! hahahah! i should try to work on and improve my blog so that i could earn more. ye! earn money online!

so there.. that's it for now.. take care you all!

pamangkin

pamangkin is a filipino word which means your relationship to the children of your siblings. in english, they are referred to as your neices or nephews.

it's been a while since i posted photos of my 2 pamangkin, Gabe and Shanon. Gabe is my first pamangkin, Shannon's Gabe's little sister.

here are some of the latest photos of them. both are sooo adorable.

pamangkin, kenneth chan photography, kenneth yu chan photography, photography

pamangkin, kenneth chan photography, kenneth yu chan photography, photography
Gabe already knows how to pose whenever he sees a camera. even when he's crying. he'll stop to do his pose.

Shannon on the other hand has several new tricks also. she knows how to clap whenever she hears the words "galing.." (very good). she knows how to wave bye bye and, she can do beautiful eyes already.

pamangkin, kenneth chan photography, kenneth yu chan photography, photography
Gabe was actually crying before doing his pose.
