Boudoir Photoshoot with Bianca Pietersz

The hyperactive girl who appreciated me and my work tremendously finally returned to Singapore after many years. Bianca contacted me excitedly to announce the good news weeks before that and it was a dream comes true to get to see my good friend from the other side of the globe again.

On the first evening when she came over, we met up together with her boyfriend and had a long chat till late at night. The two of us warmed the seats of the hotel's cafe until even the staff had left.

I had some mixed feelings about the shoot because I wanted her to accompany her boyfriend to more places since they wouldn't be staying over for long. I was also worried that she would be too tired for the shoot. In the first place, I wasn't even sure what time she would be arriving and we initially talked about shooting immediately upon her arrival. Eventually, we fixed the time before I went home.

We began the shoot in the mid-morning, just hours after we bid goodbye. Needless to say, she trusted me completely and thus we were able to do the shoot without any awkwardness. Being an artist, Bianca astonished me with her creativity once again. Bianca's talent in modelling, with her expression and ability to pose, would make many people think she's a professional model.

Initially, I began by using my strobes as the sunlight was piercing through the gaps in the curtains. My strobes helped to eliminate the ugly and unnecessary light that would be causing a distraction in the photographs. I was also able to control the direction of light.
