Behind the Scenes: Kenneth Barlis

Today, I had a wonderful opportunity to work with my super team again. I just have to say I love working with Kenneth Barlis designs. Its high fashion couture and I had the chance to take the shoot based on ideas I came up with and make up and hair help from Chaya (claudia nunez). I also want to add that this was the first official Canon 5D mark III shoot. It was so exciting. Here are some behind the scenes shots:

Happy New Year!

Wishing everyone a wonderful new year! If anything, Ive learnt that its not about setting resolutions or goals for each year. But rather putting more energy and working harder towards what you believe. Heres to more hoping, dreaming, believing and doing!

On that note, I am so excited to share that I just bought myself a Canon 5D Mark III. I have to thank my baby bro, amma and daddy for all the support. They still haven't given up on my dreams. Whatever little success I have gotten is because of them. Thank you from my entire heart! Love you!

Here are pictures of me unpacking the beauty! Thank you for your continuous support. I am so excited to jump into more future projects. I want to sign off saying: Dare to dream a little bigger, darling!

The White Princess for Jute Magazine








Editorial: The White Princess for Jute Magazine

Photography: Pavithra Ramasubramanian
Designer: Iselle Nguyen of Creative Boutique by Iselle
Model: Julia Ziegenbein
Make up and Hair: Lauren Nicole-Mua
Jewelry: Flights of Fancy

So happy to say, after a long pause, I am back in full swing. Here is an editorial I shot in October for December issue of Jute Magazine. The reason this shoot came through was for the location. Its an old watch tower near Dana Point on Victoria Beach-Laguna Beach. It makes for a great castle feel and gives a romantic look. I love capturing such beautiful architecture and tell a story with it. Here is my story of a young princess who is going to be the White Queen.  The White Queen is a major part of the book: Alice in Wonderland. Here I made the character more of a younger version. Check out the editorial on the link and please do share your thoughts. 

Thank you

Behind the Scenes: White Princess Photoshoot

Today, I spent a lot of time driving to this location and setting up the shoot. Lot of things had gone wrong initially and the shoot was a little uncertain because of everyones travel time. But in the end I am so glad it happened so well. All the uncertainty went away when I saw the designer and make up had already started. Basically, it was all about the location and and the climate around it. Here is the behind the scenes look - pictures from designers and make up artists instagrams:
