Tone Mapped Photos For Wedding?

By the time I’m writing this, I’m sitting alone at Starbucks Coffee in Pavilion, Bukit Bintang. Enjoying my cup of Javachip Coffee with whipped cream.. Yummy..! I dunno what happen to me for the past 2-3 days.. But one thing that I know, I love to be alone for the time being. Looking at these people walking, passing by this very aisle of Pavvy makes me felt so much refreshing and relax. By the end of this week, I’m gonna take a 3-4 days off to my secret hideout place.. Where else beside my favorite sandy beach? I need a time off.. Seriously..

Kuala Lumpur is such a nice place to live in or to work. But too much of Kuala Lumpur makes me sick. The noise, the people, all those ‘mat rempit’ stuff, the crime and everything.. They’re all just cause me pain in the head.. (now I sound old).. LOL..

Ok guys and girls.. Let’s just go straight to the topic before I can have my holiday soon.

After I’ve posted Gia portfolios in HDR photos, I’ve been asked by a few people on what I think about tone mapped / HDR effects on wedding photography? So here’s my answer.. I’m not a big fan of HDR photography actually. HDR for me, is very useful in landscape or architectures photo and such. But when it come to a wedding photography, I give it 50-50. If requested by the clients, I’d say why not? But please bear in mind, that not all of your wedding clients love HDR effects. Some of them don’t even know what the heck is HDR. (Read until the end of this article, And you’ll know what is HDR). To make a HDR look image, the post-processor / designer (in this case, it’s me) will need lot’s of time and lot’s of coffee! It is a very much time consuming thingy for most of the post-processors / the designers. So to clients, please be very careful if you want to request this kind of image. Because of it’s time consuming ‘nature’, I’m afraid that your wedding album will be delivered late.. LOL.. Unless the ‘makers’ are all big names and well known photographers such as Syahrin Aziz and such, then you can rely on them!

Wedding is always a ‘one-day-off’ events and you can’t reverse it back. What you saw right in front of your eyes will only happen once (most of the time) and then you can only pray hard for the same incident or moment to happen again. This is why I’ve trained all of my photographers to have eye like an eagle.. LOL.. Normally for wedding photographers, they’ll shoot in Jpeg format. But for me, I’ll shoot the make up sessions and some of the events of wedding in RAW format (the rest is in Jpeg). Why RAW? This is because all of the originality (colors, tone, white balance and such) is still in it ‘uncompressed’ state. And at this stage, you’ll need a RAW file format to turn it into a HDR photo at later post-processing stage. (Jpeg can’t be processed into HDR since it’s already being compressed).

Original HDR photos need at least 3 RAW exposures to make it beautifully rendered. But through 1 RAW file it is also can still be use for HDR conversion (except it wont be regards as ‘original HDR’.. LOL). Now, HDR and tone mapped is the same techniques if you don’t know..

So, with this article I’ve added some of my previous photos that I’ve converted to HDR / Tone Mapped… So tell me what do you think? LOL

Now I can have my holiday..! Yay!

Why Men Always Know How To Make Up Their Mistake? – Stephen & Illa Post Wedding (Black’n'White)

Stephen & Illa Post Wedding

In any relationship name it from boyfriends and girlfriends to husband and wife, man’s was always being pointed as the one who’ve always done big mistake and such. Women was always being portrayed as the good ones. But in a 21st century, everything is upside down. Now days, even a woman can be as bad as men and men can be as good as a loyal house wife..

So why did men always know how to make up their mistake..? Our answer is – because they are the most romantic creatures on planet earth. Don’t believe us? Go back and check history – Most of the romantic writers are men. Most of romantic musician are men. Most of poetic poems are written by men.. And so many other things to list down. We’re are not being sexism here.. Hehehe.. Wan Addiba, forgive us.. But this is the fact.. But says who girls are not romantic by them self right..? Haha.. Men and women are always meant to be together..

Guys and girls – Don’t get us wrong on this posting! We are not trying to influence any of you or giving any bad idea.. LOL.. This is just a ‘drama’ posting on Stephen Athaillah R. Shand Abdullah and Naza Illa Mohd Nasir post wedding photo shoot we’ve done over last weekend. This photoshoot was done by Farul Azri and Abu Bakar Fahmi or better known as Enche Burn. The idea of story line was originally by Enche Burn.

So we don’t want to waste no more time – Just browse along these pictures and you’ll get the story from it.. Enjoy!!!

Kisah Kellie’s Castle…

Ini kali pertama aku jejakkan kaki kat Kellie’s Castle, Perak Darul Ridzuan. Sebelum-sebelum ni pernah la aku lalu kat situ beberapa kali.. Kellie’s Castle ni tempat bersejarah. Sebuah banggunan lama (seperti ‘mansion’) binaan zaman British dulu. Dibina oleh William Kellie Smith dari Scotland sekitar tahiun 1890. Konon-kononnya rumah agam ni nak dihadiahkan untuk isteri dan anaknya tapi rumah ni tak pernah siap pun sebenarnya dan tak lama lepas tu William Kellie Smith mati sebab terkena macam-macam penyakit. Pneumonia dan Spanish flu.. Hari ini ramai yang percaya bahawa tempat ni berhantu dan ramai jugak la yang dah jumpa hantu William Kellie Smith tu kat sini.. Hahaha..

Memang ada sejarah tempat ni.. Sama jugak dengan aku.. Kisah lama masa zaman-zaman aku bercinta dulu. Rajin la drive kereta dari KL ni pergi ke Seri Iskandar.. Dah tu, girlfriend aku dulu study kat sana..! Memang selalu la aku melintas kat depan Kellie’s Castle ni.. Cuma tak berpeluang nak berhenti menjenguk je.. Sekarang ni baru la ada peluang.. Terima kasih kepada Thareq dan Ayu.. Hahaha.. Adeh.. Terkenang cerita lama la pulak.. Syahdu je tiba-tiba terasa hati.. Huhuhu..

Petang tu bila selesai shoot outdoor portraiture untuk Thareq dan Ayu, kami team jurugambar Click*Syndicate telah dijemput oleh pihak pengurusan Kellie’s Castle untuk turut serta dalam rakaman ‘paranormal activity’ oleh beberapa orang paranormal investigator (penyiasat hantu) dari Singapura dan Malaysia yang dijadualkan untuk buat pengambaran pada malam tu jugak bermula jam 8pm – 3am.. Aku memang dah excited dan teruja sangat waktu tu sebab peluang macam ni bukannya datang selalu.. Tapi pembantu aku Enche Abu Bakar Fahmi a.k.a Enche Burn terkenal dengan sifat segan-silu dia terhadap makhluk-makhluk halus ni.. Wakakakaka… Maka terpaksalah aku membatalkan hajat aku dan meminta izin untuk tidak turut serta dari pihak pengurusan Kellie’s Castle.. (hampeh betul).. Sudahnya kami sampai di Kuala Lumpur awal.. Sekitar pukul 10.30 malam dah sampai.. Kalau kami sangkut kat Kellie’s Castle tu, silap-silap haribulan mesti azan subuh baru sampai KL punya.. hahaha.. Tak boleh la pulak kan sebab keesokkan harinya tu aku ada photoshoot untuk majlis bertunang Shahrul dan Hafizah di Klang.. Arghhh… Kellie’s Castle, aku akan repeat…!!!!!!!!

Huh.. Apa-apa pun, korang layan la dulu gambar-gambar outdoor Ayu dan Thareq kat Kellie’s Castle ni.. Kalau korang nampak apa-apa dalam gambar-gambar tu, jangan tegur.. Mungkin itu gambar hantu, atau mungkin itu gambar Ayu dan Thareq..! Hahaha.. Enjoy..!

‘Jet Lag’ Selepas Shooting Fida & Khairun

_dsc0395

Serios beb.. Hari ni aku rasa macam kena jet lag pulak.. Semalam aku ditemani oleh Daniel Malek dari Purple Grapes Photography untuk shoot masjlis bertandang Fida dan Khairun di Sungai Siput dan Kuala Kangsar.. Kenduri kahwinnya tu kat Sungai Siput tapi lepas kenduri, kami ‘kidnap’ pengantin bawak pegi buat outdoor portraiture kat Kuala Kangsar. Enjoy tak ingat-ingat punya kami semalam.. Lepas shoot outdoor, kami pun layan makan laksa Kuala Kangsar yang top tu.. Bila tiba time nak balik, baru teringat sesuatu.. ‘Esok orang dah mula kerja.. Dan memandangkan hari Jumaat sebelum tu Hari Raya Haji, makanya jalan mesti sesak tak ingat punya..’

Sudahnya 6 jam kami sangkut dalam kereta kat highway tu..! Arghhhhhh…

Hmm.. Berbalik kepada kisah si Fida dan Khairun ni, kenduri diorang ni pun sempoi. Berjalan lancar tanpa ada sebarang masalah. Kawan-kawan diorang yang datang pun boleh tahan gila-gila jugak. Haa.. Itu lah yang best kalau shoot gambar pengantin yang ada kawan gila-gila.. Ape je yang aku suruh diorang buat, mesti diorang buat punya.. Sampai tahap pengantin pun diorang nak pukul..! Hahaha.. Tapi diorang lupa, yang si Khairun tu ada ilmu kebal tahap tertinggi..! Jenis pergi bertapa kat bawah pokok mamat ni sebenarnya.. Sungguh aku tak bohong (Ada bukti gambar).. Nanti aku bongkarkan kegiatan dia..

Nak tahu, korang tengok-tengok la gambar-gambar kat bawah ni.. Hehehe… Dan kepada sesiapa yang belum booking kami untuk photography perkahwinan korang silalah berbuat dengan kadar segera sebab slot promosi hujung tahun kami dah mula terisi.. Jadi siapa cepat, dia dapat..! Jumpa lagiiiiiii…!
