Just had my first ever proper studio shoot with the help from my lovely friends. I really shouldn't be posting because I have loads of assignments awaiting me but I just want to thank everyone that has helped me!!! Wouldn't have been able to do this on my own. Thank God Rachel and Esther came to help me because initially it was just said as a fleeting comment, didn't think they'd really come down and really help me haha. Like she'll really move stuff around with urgency as if it was her own project, thanks for doing all this <3 All the way in Pulau NTU, it's so far away from everything else hahah. Rach is usually here on most of my shoots and I love working with her hahah (Y) Clara and Shi Lin too! For just helping me improptu when you saw that I needed help, thank youuu. And to my models Pooja and Maarit for helping me so willingly you guys are so beautiful and fun to work with. I can finally say 'I SHOT POOJA FROM ASIA NEXT TOP MODEL' hahaha. Thanks Pooja for encouraging me and for always exclaiming 'Omg I love this?!' when you look at the pictures haha makes me happy that you like them. And to the amazing Suzane Calero, thanks so much for doing the make up because honestly I don't know much about it but you did greaaat. Adeline and Joceline the McSpicy twins who aren't stylist but are super good at it nonetheless. #borntalents I can't imagine them as one person because they'd be prodigies (Very talented artists) They literally just lent me whatever I could use so generously thank you :') And it's always comfortable working with them because we've been through AEP together back in JC, haha it helps alot. If you're wondering that beautiful hat is done by Kylie!! She followed me to Chinatown to get the materials and then back to my place to try create a head piece. Hahaha she's a genius really. And Ediii, she came over on Saturday morning although she needed to head to school to help me out with fitting and pairing (I'm guessing she's the closest to Pooja's size) She's in the midst of submissions but she woke up early and came over <3 

SO ALL I CAN SAY IS THANK YOUUUUUUU EVERYONE
Can't ever thank you all enough. I thank God for blessing me with such lovely friends

From the shoot yesterday, I've learnt so much about how things operate during studio sessions like these. I've learnt that I need to have things planned out really well and know exactly what I want because you're like the director of the day kinda thing. Which freaks me out a lot because sometimes I'm not even super duper sure what I want. This time everything was really rushed because it's an assignment and I hava a deadline, which means I can only do this much with the time I can put into this lighting module. So I just do the best I can with whatever time and resources I can get. But in the future, I hope to do more interesting studio shoots during my holidays! With more planning, more collaborations and planning. I like working in nice teams :> Thank you all for the great first experience <3
