Gadgets December/January Behind the Scenes

Another issue is out and so as the year 2011 in a few weeks but before we plunge ourselves to all the merrymaking and gain extra pounds I'd like to share to you guys some snaps I took during our December/January issue shoot which happened at Blue Gardens (google it up!) with the beautiful and stunning Iza Calzado. So from this point on I'll stop talking and let the photos do their work.

November Behind the Scenes

It is the time of the month again where we work on our wishlist since Christmas is getting nearer by the minute as the days goes by. Right now I myself fancy a new piece of glass like a Sigma 30mm 1.4 or a Canon 14-70mm 2.8 as well as a new camera body but for now I can only fancy it since my main "gadget buy" is a new television because the old one is— well of course old and is breaking down frequently which constantly annoys everyone in the house. Now we at Gadgets Magazine have made something that will totally save you from the hassles of listing down, cross referencing and endless hours of research on what gadget you want to have but I wouldn't tell you guys here because I hate spoiling you so you guys have to check out our latest issue.

Now on a happier note, I am pleased to show you some snaps I took during our November shoot with Sir Paul Ticzon at the Attic Studio with Ms. Bianca Manalo as our cover girl. While on the topic of the photo shoo I manage to learn a few tricks from watching Sir Paul and applied it here. Sir Paul's technique is fairly simple he uses a prime lens with a variable ND filter to compensate his powerful studio lights and sticks to the lowest aperture that he wants therefore he his able to create that creamy bokeh while the light wonderfully wraps around the model.
