Once again, after weeks of all nighters, trying to redesign and reinvent yiuphotography.com into my new blog, it is finally up and running.
I’m very excited because for weeks, I’ve been holding off on sharing and updating posts for all you fans. That’s weeks of photographs and random ideas that I wasn’t able to share with you. I’ll try to catch up…
However, while I am very happy about the new blog, I, sadly, will have to retire yello77.com yello77.com and perhaps save it for a future undetermined project. Yello77.com was my first blog and it has gone through a couple of makeovers since its launch two years ago. It has served all my online publishing needs and linking me to a whole community of good friends and enthusiastic fans alike.
Meanwhile, do not despair– all entries, pages, and your favorite images have migrated to this new blog.
Yello77.com will still be online for at least another year because there’s quite a number of websites (that I have no association with) that links to some of my posts and images. But I will no longer be update it since all my new activities will be featured on this blog.
Let me know what you think of the design.

George and his band rocks.
One of my facebook friends asked if I can shoot George and his band for him. Of course, I said yes. Low light photography has always been a fav on my to do list of photo challenges. The result was quite nice. Can you feel the energy of the band from the photos?
Prior to the band’s performance, I experimented with some unique flash diffusion techniques. Simple really, I basically used my own hand as the diffuser and the result was very artistic. More examples of that later, in yet another post.
All photographs were shot in Raw Format with my Canon 50D along with my off-camera speedlite 430ex.
I used a “snoot” for some of the photographs for that spot lighting effect.
I used either a 50mm 1.4 or 85mm 1.8 Lens for this event. ISO at 400 at 1/10 – 1/30 of a second.
Post processed with Aperture only.

It’s that time again when I’m feeling my creative bones aching for some kind of design project to keep my brain from rusting. It is the curse of being a designer. Constantly gotta reassure ourselves that we still got it.
Anyway, I foresee big changes and conglomeration of my two websites, yello77.com and yiuphotography.com. As I’m becoming more and more active in photography work, and less and less interested in designing projects (with the exception of those that are commissioned), I think it’s time to devote my weblog solely to the development of my photography business. On that note, yello77.com weblog will be migrating over to yiuphotography.com, replacing it’s existing static site.
As yiuphotography.com will be my new weblog, I am retaining yello77.com for a future project one day. I must admit, it is a catchy url.
As for the design of the new yiuphotography weblog, I’m thinking black and white with a hint of color, with an extremely simple layout. I’m always a fan of simplicity and function. The yiuphotography.com logo will also be rebranded using a whole new attitude and font.
I can’t wait to finish this new project! Hopefully it will be up in less than 2 months. In the mean time, yello77.com will still serve as my weblog until the new website is up.
Here’s a sneak peek of what’s coming soon.
dude! i love it!! love the photos, the editing…the new blog..kick ass!!! congratulations!
