Hi there !
How has everyone been ? I believe it has been around a month since i have last wrote an entry here, which has been quite awhile.
It has been roughly 2 months since i have graduated from school, and so much has changed since going to school and being in classes is no longer is my 'daily curriculum' for me, and i guess most people would think that life without school will give you plenty of time to laze in bed till noon, but hell no ! That is totally not the case !
After my grad show i guess i have been rather productive cause i have been constantly doing work, but i do take awhile at retouching as i am normally not home to get my ass stuck onto a chair and retouch !
Eitherways, around one month back i photographed Borja Martin from Diva, a super easy model to work around with, and here are some of the final photographs from the shoot, do take a look and tell me what you think.... (the rest of the photos are on my website)
I am currently working on another new series of photographs with model Irina U, which i already have a preview photo on my website itself, cant wait to finish retouching all of them and show it to everyone !
Have a great weekend everyone ! <3
Bryan :)
Hello !
How has everyone been ? It has been a month since i have graduated and left school and i guess i do actually kind of miss my school life in NAFA. NAFA was the place that i grew, was the place that made me who i am today and i never regretted going to an arts school :)
For this entire month, i have been busy arranging, planning and preparing for shoots, location scouting, getting familiar with my new camera as i was using my polaroid for my entire FYP and never really gotten a chance to be out with my new camera D:
I have also been lazing around and taking a small break since i have gotten my diploma !
Last week, i went shooting outdoors with a Spain model Borja Martin, and here is a little sneak preview from the shoot ! :)
i am in the midst of retouching the photographs from the shoot, so they will be up soon ! Look out for my latest works/updates and behind the scenes on my facebook page here : Bljh PhotographySpeaking of Inspirations, here are some portraits of ordinary people that you see on the streets, but they arnt just ordinary people to me, but they are people that i love, and looking at these pictures of them inspires me so much <3 And for those which i didt have a picture of you here, it does not mean that you dont inspire me but its because dont have a decent picture of you :(
Lastly, a portrait of me taken by my lover <3
I know that the bridges that I've burned
Along the way
Have left me with these walls and these scars
That won't go away
And opening up has always been the hardest thing
Until you came
So lay here beside me just hold me and don't let go
This feelin' I'm feelin' is somethin' I've never known
And I just can't take my eyes off you
And I just can't take my eyes off you
I love when you tell me that I'm pretty
When I just wake up
And I love how you tease me when I'm moody
But it's never too much
I'm falling fast but the truth is I'm not scared at all
You climbed my walls
So lay here beside me just hold me and don't let go
This feelin' I'm feelin' is somethin' I've never known
And I just can't take my eyes off you
And I just can't take my eyes off you
Off you
Off you
So lay here beside me just hold me and don't let go
And oh..this feelin' I'm feelin' is somethin' I've never known
And I just can't take my eyes off you
And I just can't take my eyes off you

Last friday was my grad show and it was a blast !
I wanna thank everyone that specially took time off from their busy schedules to come down to this show, and i really appreciate it <3
Alot of people asked me about my work, how did i do it, and what inspired me to produce this series of "old" and "antique" photographs.
This series of work is titled "On Beauty" , where i will be releasing them in awhile to come ! :)
I am actually also selling off the prints from the exhibition, the prints are on quality fine art archival paper and the sizes of the prints varies (by alittle bit), so do get in contact with me if you would like to purchase the prints :D
and to come and think of it i have not taken any picture of myself along with my work, except for the one below taken by jun :D
Here are some pictures of the actual opening night....
and here are some of the preparation work before the opening of the show...
So actually this grad show marks the end of my diploma, and i am a graduate in fine art photography ! :D
I wanna thank everyone, everyone that has been there with me, given me help and support, and also thank you for believing in me, thank you. <3
And to that special someone, thankyou for your constant support, your guidance and pushing me throughout this entire year. Thankyou for believing in me, for coming to my shoots, for telling me "its okay" no matter how difficult things seem to be. I would not have done this series of work without you. i love you <3
And to rachel, thankyou for specially arranging time off from your schedule to model this series of work that means so much to me. Thank you <3
Hi everyone ! I know that i have been very busy lately with school and not being very productive with my personal work D:
I have been busy working on my Final Year Project for many months now, i have spent so much time arranging and trying to fix a date photoshoot with rachel (the very first girl that i photographed), photographing, peeling off the images apart (cause they are polaroid instant peel offs) , scanning, printing and printing and getting the images ready for my assessment and also for my graduation show along with my other classmates from other disciplines for our fine art department grad which is on this coming friday 6/05/2011.
(Details of the exhibition venue below)
Here are some sneak preview and behind the scenes of what i have been doing lately for my FYP...
For the upcoming show i will be showing at least 4-7 images from my final work (which is in series of 7) depending on how much space i am allocated to in the gallery. There will also be other awesome work from other majors such as the printmakers, sculptors, painters, ceramists and also chinese ink :) So for the next few days i will be busy preparing for the exhibition/ grad show !The grad show is open to everyone, and I will be there personally on the opening night along with my other 50 odd classmates :D So do feel free to drop by and say hi ! :D Also, if anyone is interested in my work or my classmates work during the show, they are available for purchase :D
That is all for now , and from now on this will be my official website and blog that i will be updating whenever i can. Hope everyone has been doing well ! :)
Bryan :D
