Posted By Michael Yip / April, 5, 2010 / 1 comments

Portraits series no. 6 features Khym Ong (also featured in the previous portrait post) in a Muay Thai inspired shoot. Less words, more photos so do check it out and let me know what you think of these photos.

She arrived by bike and all the attention went to her…

She got herself ready in no time not wanting to waste any time in bringing down her opponent.

Her attacks was fast and furious starting off with some quick punches.

Before finishing the combination with a well aimed kick to the mid section.

She sat down, feeling disappointed with the quality of her opponents wondering who would be next.

The End….

Feel free to comment yah.

Portraits: Khym Ready To Party

Portraits no. 5 for 2010. Got to work with the lovely Khym in the following sets of photos. Real easy to work with as she would provide multiple poses for each spot whether she’s standing or sitting. I’ll let the photos do the talking rather than word too much in here.

Portraits: Linda

3rd set of 2010 introducing Linda. Simple shoot using natural lights shot using the Nikon D300. I adjusted the levels on these photos again after I migrate all my stuff from my old notebook to the new one.

Looking at the photos after I extract them out of my old computer, I realized now why a lot of people say the photos I posted are slightly over-exposed. I guess the screen on my old notebook had been deceiving me and when I adjust the Levels, I adjusted it according to what I see on the screen. I even asked @StrippedSteph a few times when I was editing whether it was ok judging from the what we see from my computer.

Well… after migrating to this new notebook that has a properly calibrated screen, I realized that either that screen is fading in screen life or it was just designed like that (even though it’s already at it’s brightest). I’m no expert in photoshopping and no expert when it comes to all these color mumbo jumbo but hopefully, there will be some improvement when it comes to the contrast of the photos.

Yes, there’s only 3 photos from this set. I’ve posted the rest to my Flickr account so do feel free to comment on the above photos.
