Outdoor Casual Corporate Photoshoot with Patrick

Even on a short business trip, Patrick made time for something he'd been dreaming about for years—a photoshoot session with Marina Bay Sands (MBS) in the background. Though simple in concept, the idea carried great personal meaning for him, and I was happy to help turn it into reality.

At the beginning of the shoot, I took Zaid to a spot by the river with a clear view of the skyline. We slipped past a barricade—it wasn't officially restricted yet since the nearby performance hadn't started—but a security guard still came over to give us a polite lecture. We handled it respectfully and moved on, though that minor hiccup set the stage for a shoot that had its fair share of chaos.

With Patrick's flight looming, we had no choice but to shoot under the harsh midday sun. The cloudless sky amplified the brightness, and the packed venue made finding clean angles a challenge. The intense glare even made it hard for Patrick to keep his eyes open, adding yet another layer of difficulty to the session

Originally, he only wanted a single photo—just a keepsake. But I felt it would be a waste not to take more, especially since he looked great in his suit, and we were already on location. Thankfully, he was open to the idea and gave me the time we had left.

Before Patrick had to catch his flight, we managed to secure a strong collection of shots. The conditions weren't flawless, but I'm truly grateful we were able to produce something worthwhile in the limited time we had.
