This was the vintage set that Benjamin and Winter told me about when we met up for the first time. I thought about it for awhile and decided to bring them to the lake infront of the Macau Tower. I love the scene here and is a really nice place to shoot in the evenings, you will see the sunset and have a golden warm light behind your subjects. You have to shoot fast though as the window of golden light closes really fast. Once the Sun starts to set, it sets fast
Besides the beautiful light, I also love having the old buildings in the background. And sitting ontop of the hill is the iconic Chapel of Our Lady of Penha. Framing all these into my pictures is part of my style of shooting
The camera that Benjamin is carrying is my antique Rolleiflex TLR (twin lens reflex) camera. It sits in my drybox at home and when I was thinking of this set, I decided to bring it out as a prop, I think it kinda fits the theme.
We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves doing this set and here are some of the pictures
The Chapel of Our Lady of Penha in the background, just perfect!!
The next post will be on our night session so stay tuned!!:)
