I have been keeping a very close eye on the Sandisk compact flash cards and its price fluctuations. Reason being I am seriously considering getting myself a new card for my camera. My current 2 x 2 GB cards are insufficient for my workflow. I take mostly RAW files, especially when I am on a […]

Don’t throw that picture away yet!
Posted: 7th January 2010 by Jacky Yong in Computers, PhotographyTags: exposure, fix, photoshop
How many of you remember taking a photo, only to find out that the photo turned out bad due to incorrect exposure? (It could be due to underexpose (picture turning out too dark) or overexpose (picture turning too bright).) Even though in the world of digital photography where the camera decides everything for you, things […]
Portraiture in KL
Posted: 26th December 2009 by Jacky Yong in PhotographyTags: KLCC, Pavilion, portrait, Putrajaya, Sunway
Went for a walkabout in October with Yan Yan and my wife, with plenty of photo opportunities. Only able to process the photos today, due to amazingly full schedule. Anyway the title is a bit confusing, ’cause technically speaking the places we went to were not only confined to KL. We also went to Sunway […]
Elvis and Melissa Wedding
Posted: 5th November 2009 by Jacky Yong in PhotographyTags: elvis, melissa, puchong, Wedding
It was my wife Mei Fen who suggested me to help out Elvis. It was again another rather last-minute notice, only about 2 weeks. The unique thing about this project is that the bride and groom stay very near each other. Near is really rather an understatement. More like “virtually next door”. They both stay […]
How to add Lomography using Photoshop
Posted: 17th October 2009 by Jacky Yong in PhotographyTags: lomography, photoshop
Disclaimer: This is just my noobi-ish experience trying to come up with my own workflow to create this effect. This is by no mean complete and final. Its sole purpose is to remind myself how I do it again, in case I want to reproduce it again. However you are welcomed to copy and try […]
Mun Yew and Regine wedding – an autopsy
Posted: 10th October 2009 by Jacky Yong in PhotographyTags: Mun Yew, Regine, Wedding
Regine engaged my service 2 weeks before her wedding! I was rather surprised that she would risk her that until the very last minute! Nevertheless, I was also free that day, and so I took on the challenge. As with almost all my assignments, I always scout for the place before I go to the […]
Sekinchan 2009

To go where I have never been before! That certainly sounds exciting, especially now that I can bring my camera along for some landscape photography! My colleague Ivan recently bought himself a DSLR, a 450D, so I’ll be glad to have another photo-kaki to join me.

I accepted Cheong’s request for me to be their wedding photographer for a day. Their big day was on 24 December 2007. Went to Darby Park to where Cheong’s wife and her family are located.
Photography adventure in Singapore 2009
Posted: 7th June 2009 by Jacky Yong in PhotographyTags: HDR, Nikon D3, Photography, Singapore
I know, I know. Photography in Singapore is not new to readers of my blog. I have been at it since many aeons ago with my old Canon A70. This new batch of photos is a cumulative work of all my past experiences combined together. I especially like HDR, therefore you will see a lot […]
