date : 30/01/10 (sunday) tentatively
time : 8.00am - 11.00am
theme : the cow girl
model : tba (above average pretty)
location : sekinchan / hulu langat (pls suggest if you have better idea to match the theme, but i'll make the final decision)
let's pay the model & make-up artist a token of appreciation, by paying them(maybe) a minimal RM10 from each photographer, for their time & effort & their money spent on buying clothes/accessories to match this theme. after the session, you'll have to send your 10 best shots to the respective model too.
maximum photographer-to-model-ratio is 4:1. i have 2 ready models now, so maximum headcount is 8. will adjust the number of photographers if i managed to get more models.
update 31/12/09 : I decide to increase the photographer-to-model-ratio to 5:1, so that 1 person (compulsory to take turn) to hold reflector or wireless flash (if any).

have i missed out anyone?
let me explain on my plan:
sekinchan is famous for it's padi field, that's why i selected this place to match the theme. the cow-girl standing in the middle of borderlessly wide & greeny padi field, the contrast is superb!
whereas hulu langat is a favourite spot for wedding photographers if they wanna shoot outdoor, for it's 5 feet tall "lalang". in fact, i wanna try some "lalang" bokeh
i am genuine in organising the shooting. please check my facebook - brian hiew, and you can see i've been organising outdoor shooting quite often recently. you can see my lastest project - "ivy & ashley bridal shoot" in putrajaya too, only half of the photos have been PPed and uploaded. the rest are still in progress.
as you can see in my facebook, i actually did a cow-girl shoot last month in dongongon (sabah - my hometown), unfortunately, we were late so the sun was SO hot, so we shot for a while only. the padi field is not as wide as sekinchan. that's why i wanna shoot sekinchan this round.
frankly, my ready models this round are ivy & ashley too (same with my previous project). their look are more towards young & sweet & cute. so i think they are not really suitable for car model which has to be "wild & sexy".
you may notice that i've been going out for shooting with the same bunch of kaki's. but i want new ideas, new inputs, new posing style and new friends!
if necessary, we can come out for a TT before the shooting (maybe on 29/01/10), together with the models. so that we could get to know each other 1st.
i've had shooting in subang ria park, shah alam agriculture park and putrajaya. so i wanna shoot in somewhere new & fresh to me, maybe will go lake garden. but let me do some research 1st. if the scenery is same with subang ria park, i'll have to stick to my original plan.
in fact, going to putrajaya (from pj) took us about 45 mins drive for my last project. so going to sekinchan/hulu langat, which sound very far, would take about 1 hour drive, which i think is not much different. somemore, it's a sunday early morning! so the traffic wont be too bad.
of course, i still keep an open mind to accept new suggesttion in term of location and theme. so keep the ideas coming in!
entry level gears are not an issues, every pro started off with entry level gears too. besides, as we've read many times in photography forums -
camera does not matter, the most important is the person behind it. we're here with the same purpose - to learn and to gain experience, not to create enermy/trouble, so i apologise if i've unintentionally offended you in any way. photo shooting is fun (i think all of us would agree), so i am trying to (voluntarily) create more shooting opportunity for everyone. i sincerely hope this project goes smoothly.
till i come in again next year, i hereby wishing everyone :
HAPPY NEW YEAR & HAPPY SHOOTING!!!
