I also realized that my blog is currently filled with other types of posts (ie. interview, thoughts, etc.) My usual outfit posts have sort of shifted somewhere. Because of this, I decided to play around with the camera last night before i sleep. I was not focusing on the outfit I am wearing, but I decided to focus on thinking the different poses I could try infront of the camera (most of my pose are so 'normal' - so I'm just trying to work out what other styles are good for me). Also played with different lighting effects. Different lighting can totally change the photo's message..
so enjoy this image filled post ! feel free to give me some constructive criticism on the way I take/pose/edit/etc my photos.. I'd love to learn !
this one is my favorite shot. Loved the angle, the pose, the lighting, and everything else !
Not sure which editing is better.. so i posted this one with brighter atmosphere up as well..
Next I edited it by layering words. The words are from my favorite song called 'Ain't No Sunshine'.. I feel beachy in this get up, but the only thing I'm missing the sun.
"The Squat" - I don't know why, but I love photos that cover up the top half of my face..
Made some for GIF images.. i loved the motion blur here..
"In the iBubble" - some 'scratchy' Photoshop sketches.
Yay, found a new favorite pose ! I love how I extended my legs.. keeping my body up wasn't easy though.. It was kinda like an exercise to me..
another new favorite pose.. don't I look like I'm about to scour my hand like an emo? this photo isn't edited at all by the way..
this photo would've been terrific if the background was plain..there's too much distraction, but I love the pose and silhouette formed..
another favorite one.. i love posing on my bed and on the floor .. feels very comfortable somehow..

I was also trying to learn how to carefully choose my photos instead of just posting everything up. but I still ended up posting 10 photos.. I actually had 16 that I wanted to post, but I had to reduce it.. 11 was the best number I could go for..
This may be the last manually-published blog post for 2009. I will be off to Puncak for the next 5/6 days with my boyfriend's family.. I don't have internet at Puncak, but I think I'll be making my new year resolutions on my BlackBerry while I'm there.. If I have time, I might also prepare some scheduled blog post for you guys to enjoy while I'm away :D
love you all . xoxox . Michelle :D

I love the lighting on the second photo but it became a bit grainy, I suggest reduce a little noise in your image or adjust the settings into fine. :)
I love the silhouette form photo, you look so damn sexy...the background made the entire set look so realistic...
and the GIF was so funny...you are so adorable...
too bad you will be out and no internet access but hope to read more of your post as soon as you get back...Take care, have a nice trip...
always,
Sweet

i hv been away for some times and i'm amazed when i check out ur blog. nice hat <3 !
i love your hat, it's really cute, ci. :)
I love that GIF image... so cute.
The lighting in the second photo is great. The extended leg pose is fabulous, makes you look really tall.
first post was the best I'd say, and don't worry about your period - me too :( xo
love this hed. looks like summer <3

These are great photos. I love the new poses. The hat is so cute!
The gif image is way too cool!
Unfortunately, the images load very hard..
But the hat in the gif image just gets me, I'm a hat freak:P
Have fun on New Years Eve!
kiss!
Lovely hat, michelle!
Xx
the idea of silhouettes photo is waayy too cool. Love it! But maybe your second photos a little bit over exposure, I prefer the third one. Is it me or the third is brighter than the first one?
But I see a great creative explorations here!
lesson learned!
xoxo
Awesome photography! You look so wonderful in all, even though I cannot see your beautiful face :)
awesome gif picture!!
i like it!
anyway, I'm waiting for your resolution posting <3
haha the gif image made me smile, i love it :) and i'm always trying to work on posing too, with my photographer i always feel so awkward posing. especially when other people are walking around giving me weird stares :P
have fun in puncak!!! take loads of pictures! :)
You look so cool!
I love the whole look. :)
Thanks for the comment, I love Harry Potter <3 haha! ;)

Loving the subject of this post! Your poses are so cute too, I think I need to learn a thing or two from you on how to pose lol! I feel like such a dork everytime I posed:P
I love the first pic and the sillhouette one is my favourite!! The animated gif is so adorable too!!
I'm already following you on twitter dear, my username's sheryl_wee. Though I must confess I have not been using it so regularly:P

Really nice picture -the first- with the hat on!
Love also the GF pic too!
nice poses! i love the first one!
Such a good idea. I also like to play around in front of the camera. You are always amazed how the poses look.
btw, I am using a Nikon D5000 (it's my boyfriend's camera, so I don't use it regularly- but I should)

I really like the "in the Bubble" photo, this is funny and very creative... I also like the first two photos with the very natural pose ( but I prefer the brighter light) and the hat is very nice. But I won't recommand you the poses on your bed which are not very natural and maybe exagerated... You're very very pretty and your outfits are nice so I really think that you don't need to invent some extravagant poses. But that's only the advice of a brand new reader / novice blogger. ;)
Oups! I forgot to answer your question! Yes I'm from France, and thank you for your very nice compliment on my latest outfit, that is soo kind of you !!^^
I love your shoes michh :) suka deh warnanya. And your hat is also WOW! Love it!!!! hmm about your question that you left on my blog, gue gereja di santa monika. Gue katholik mich hehe.
your first outfit is making me miss summer so much
I love those shoess! ♥
the hat is SO cute! Love the denim dress, very summery :) I like the first pose, its kinda...mysterious?
awesome post :)
xx
I think you are doing well with both the photography and the editing. Love the poses, I need to do that more. I always pose the same way. You are very inspiring. Love the outfits! Have a great New Years :)

I always find that I have too many photos that I want to post too...but I'm quite good and post just a few. I find indoor shots really grainy so I try my best to take them outdoors too...and you're right, there are ALWAYS poses that you adopt for photos that just seem to work!
Hope you have a lovely time away with your boyfriend and family!!
Wow, gorgeous photos! Love the shoes, they're killer =D
Thanks so much for my lovely comment, && have a brilliant new year!

That's just my feeling though !

https://audreysubrata.blogspot.com
Haha, I'm SO the worst for choosing pictures. Like, which one has the best editing? Best pose? I don't look like a drunken lunatic? SO MANY CHOICES.
Anyways, I love your pictures and may I ask, HOW DO YOU GET THAT MOVING ONE? Man, it's just SO ridiculously cool.
Happy New Years, girl!
Thanks so much for stopping by! Newspaper + watercolour sounds so cool, definitely going to try it. Thanks!

Great poses. I always find myself doing "normal" poses too. I think my favorite is the first one with the darker background. I think it goes better with the pose.
