Posing for pictures


Gong-gong and Kayden went for a photoshoot at East Coast Park on a sunny November afternoon. Auntie Anxin was looking for volunteers from a certain age group for a photoshoot and so agreed - Zac and his grandmummy, gong-gong and K. The shoot took longer than expected and by lunch time, everyone was exhausted as they were at the mercy of the bright blazing sun.
All the "talents" (Auntie Ann's words) were not pros and adjustments to the creative team's requirements had to be made on the spot but nothing difficult was required of the talents. This picture is the first that was taken of K when we just arrived. He was just standing under a tree amongst the greenery but the picture has turned out very differently. Hmmm....this probably justifies the existence of creative agencies and their "ang moh" creative directors - a very pregnant one in this instance.
Kayden was at his best behaviour that day - no tantrums, no whines just 100% commitment throughout that 4 hours! It was truly amazing! On the other hand, the photographer did not manage to catch Zac in action as the little buddy was tired (lack of sleep) that day and his mummy was not around to boost his morale. It was a pity.....

Gong-gong was a natural and despite the long waiting time, he was all so professional when his turn came.
