Canberra Wedding Fair – Behind the curtains

I love behind the scenes. It’s where everything and anything would happen to make the catwalk looks as glamorous as possible.

I’d say I mainly set up shoots to record BTS video and find that there is more to see behind the curtains than on the catwalk.

At the Canberra Wedding Fair, last Sunday, glamour was all around, in front and also behind the curtains. Even after the parade, we had our bit of fun with all the brides in their designers gowns and all the bling blings to play with. Special mention to Bindi Kelly as I heard that she did the make up for all the models of the day (about 24 ???)

Here are some of the shots composed on the fly.

Yes, there are some real talents in Canberra.

TAG – Cont.

Following the first post for TAG, here comes the BTS (Behind the scene) video before the shoot.

I used a Nikon D3s, with continuous timing capture of 1fps. The lens is the Nikon 14-24 AFS – G. The camera was set on medium JPEG with an ISO of 3200. Images have been cropped in the video. I use iMovie to make this basic video.

Thanks again to all the models, the two make up artists Claire Warmenhoven and Elicia Ringuet  and the hair stylist Bianca Pezzella (www.biancanerohairboutique.com)

Special thanks to Lyndell Roberts for assisting me for this shoot.

Another BTS

So long that I haven’t posted in my blog…

I’ve been so busy with shooting and editing that I almost forgot to update my journal.

Just to let you know that I am working on the project M2 and it is meant to be bigger, better and definitely takes more time to set up …

In the mean time, here are a few images captured behind the scene, that’s why the name BTS, from a shoot with a fellow photographer, Robert Coppa.

The model is Divya that I had the joy to shoot for Project M.

MUA is Kirsten, that I will have the joy to work with in the project M2 as well as Priya, the Hair stylist.

Check back this space soon for more.
