I got a phone call one night from dear-Rubik-cubing Emily.
Emily: Hey man, do you have any pictures of me? Could you send them to me? I’m going for a casting tomorrow and need some pictures…
Me: Okay I’ll try, don’t remember if I have anything decent without a Laughter-Of-Emily look.
Fortunately, I found these, taken at a McDonalds in Ampang.
I don’t even remember why she started posing on the sofa.
Often, I prefer the serious look. It complements her Oriental features. Why the tight crop? I didn’t change from my 50mm F1.4, heh.
I sent it off later, and got this message the next day:
Hey, thanks for the picture man! I nailed the gig!
Ah, what joy!
Of course, I think there are a few hundred other people who take better portraits than I do, but it’s nice to know your picture helped someone get a job.
This is not Emily, but this shot got her in for something. I don’t remember what though. Ironically, this was totally casual and impromptu, too!
hahaha altec lansing 5.1 got chosen? =P hehehe =P
got her into something? u mean.. cornetto Love Perhaps?
Tides Of Tears: I’d like to take some credit for the picking of angles too heh.
saifulrizan: Yeah, missing important shots happen. Not bad wah the manager contacted you!
KJ: I don’t know what Altec Lansing 5.1 means yet, but it sounds better than DBKL… which she told me about that nickname herself LOL.
yea… apparently Emily is one hard cookie to shoot
I can see why the last pic got her into something… she’s got a nice sweet pose. Of course a pair of well-sized (+ )( +) and tight (_|_) helps too.
Well, the closer I get similar to your story is when the official photographer of one main event here forgot to get the shot of the artist performance at the closing ceremony.
I gave him my picture.
He never say thanks but Ezlynn really like it!
dude!!!! cannot tell!!!!!!!
banyak sangat controversy, keep in secret pls… edit post asap!
DBKL: Extra information has been discarded.
altec lansing.. she’s LOUD.. well.. she don’t need a PA system for a play in KL Pac.. she’s the loudest among all.. =P hahaha well.. xianjin calls her speaker girl.. i calls her Altec Lansing 5.1.. as loud as my speaker.. LOL =P
its the most impromptu and casual that makes pictures all the better
This means you issa amazing photographer
KJ: Wahahaha! Nolah she’s a monkey.
the interesting specimen: Not to mention, illegal and light-stealing!
Jia Meei: I hope some of me rubbed off on you on that fateful accident, and you can now take awesome pictures! Or maybe some of you rubbed off on me and I can now fit in people’s pockets.
Oh hey.. the last one was a great natural shot.

Wow you took the shot at Mc Donalds??? Awesome…
helenasia: Yep yep!
Oh and the last picture was near the Midvalley Convention Center, heh.
Yuen-Chi Lian: Thanks!
