Temasek Hall Dinner and Dance Red Carpet

had my hall's dinner and dance last week and it was a blast! and of course, i wasn't going to let my camera miss this big event especially when i made a photographers' backdrop and arranged the lightings for the event (was doing publicity for the comm, so i could pretty much do whatever i thought was good. sue me. haha).

was kinda crippled during the event because i had to return the flash i was using all along to raynor cos he was there too, so i could only take photos at the red carpet where there's proper lighting. was using my 24-70mm f/2.8 on shutter priority and my ISO was pumped up all the way to 3200. good thing the photos didn't come out too grainy. time to get my own flash when i head to hong kong at the end of Oct!

here are some of the photos:

Pageant Photoshoot

did a photoshoot for the pageant contestants of my hall's dinner and dance. first time doing an actual photoshoot for print and i must say that it's a pretty good experience. all photos are taken with 17-55mm IS f/2.8.

Theme for the photoshoot is "glamorous mismatches":

Inter-Block Basketball

my hall had inter-block basketball the other time, decided to whip out my camera after my block lost (sucks) and attempt to shoot in low light again.

lens: 24-70mm f/2.8
ISO: 3200

there's seriously something wrong with my front focus for my 24-70mm. hopefully my new board will come from japan soon. can't take all these soft focused/blurred pictures anymore.
