[S.α.C] - Portrait

Finally, Sony α [Alpha] Convention 2008 @ Le Meridien Hotel KL had ended at 12th October.
I was there for 3 days.
Learn a lot of photography skills (ahem... doesn't mean that I'm already a great photographer...)
Met up some nice people...
And lot of great stuffs which I cannot finish in a single post.
So I already decided to post my experience in this convention slowly.
Spread them into few posts, maybe will complete in 2 months time.

Today, let's start with portrait first, model shooting in the convention~
Everyone like to watch leng lui, sui cha bo, although most of my colleague said they are not pretty...
Aiyo, please la, I very respect them 1 k?
Stand there for 3 days, keep on smiling, do sui sui pose let you shoot, some more under the stage got many flash lights chi chi chak chak there, my god, please give them a big clap!
I don't know how to take a good portrait (and good photo...) at the first day.
But I really appreciate Sony, they gave me this chance to learn from many great photographers in this world.
I know I'm not good, but I really learn a lot this round, and I'm improving with every shot.

K, stop bull shitting, tell me which 1 is the best.

The girl I shoot the most, is the 1 I like to most, yea... so what?
She is nice, good smiling (my colleague said her smiling so fake...) haha but I just feel nice.
And she is cute, don't you think so?

K, comment please.

Sony α Convention 2008

The α Convention 2008 is the first convention for Alpha users ever and it’s happening right here in Le Meridien, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Being the first convention we’ve ever had and conducted, we hope to provide a fulfilling avenue for new and existing users to get inspired by the many professionals residing in Malaysia and from abroad. For this convention, we’ve invited 8 distinctive personalities to talk about various topics such as fashion (rather uncommon in Malaysia), architecture, portraiture, automotive photography, unique compositional tips, digital workflow and even tips on building your own wedding photography business and handling the everyday life of a professional photographer.

Thus, it is with great desire that our many community members reap the maximum benefit from this convention as we believe that knowledge is the missing ingredient in differentiating us from the ordinary. Hence, we decided to make it free for our customers basically because we believe knowledge should be freely given. All in all, we hope that you have a pleasant stay and we hope to see you in future conventions as this is just a first of many more to come.

Sincerely Yours,

George Wong,
Sony α Brand Manager,
Digital Imaging Department,
Product Marketing Division,
Sony (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd.

Venue: Le Meridien KL, KL Central
Date: 10th – 12th October 2008
Time: 9AM – 5PM each day
