My guitar and I

When Zach told me about a friend of his who wanted a photo shoot in conjunction with her upcoming career as a song writer, I didn't really know what to expect, but kindly obliged anyway.

I chose Rutledge lane because I thought it would provide a nice, funky background. Unfortunately, it did rain quite a bit, so we had to wait for a while till it cleared up (its because Tee was very concerned about her guitar. I on the other hand, don't need to bother too much about Kim. She's weatherproof :p )

It took a bit of time to get her relaxed and have some natural looking smiles and poses, but it was worth it.


she said crossing her leggies make her look thinner. Well, i don't exactly see much of a difference, but it adds a nice twist to her pose.


i moved closer and zoomed into her face to have a thinner DOF.


I thought the corners would provide an interesting juxtaposition of colours, so I placed her there.


I asked her to play a few songs to make her look natural with the surroundings


found a nice spot in fed square with a fairly neutral background, and wanted to show case the relationship with her guitar.




I was kindly treated to dinner after that.

lamb chops with vegetables. the lamb was flavourful and juicy; had to get some tissue to wipe my mouth after each bite!


battered calamari with tartar sauce


some kind of pasta with a nice cheese sauce.

laters.
