The white sun vanishes at the mountain-top; the yellow river is swallowed by the current of the sea.

Desperately desire to see a thousand miles further, to achieve this so by climbing one more flight of stairs.

– Climbing the Crane Tower by Wang Zhihuan, a great poet of the Tang Dynasty.

These are my words of motivation and encouragement lately. Tribute to my complex root, my mother country with many years of history – China.

Remember this engagement session – {Immortal Love} we’ve photographed in the watertown near Shanghai, China in December of 2011?

This album designed by our studio (thanks to Photoshop guru  Jeremy Chan!!) has won an Award of Excellence in WPPI 2013 Album Competition.

Special thanks to Mina & Kelvin  our wonderful friends from Hong Kong who did the makeup, hair & lighting for this session.

Amazing photo retouching work by amazing  Jeremy Chan and I did the shooting and fashion styling part. Until next post, xoxo – za!

As my tribute to one of my personal favorite time of American history, the roaring 1920’s, the flapper dresses, the jazz music, the exotic world traveller era and Art Deco influence,  I’ve decided to produce a fashion editorial shoot inspired by one of my favorite book of all time – the Great Gatsby as our personal project.  As soon as we came back from photographing at the Mercedes Benz New York Fashion Week F/W 2013 (that is a different blog post overdue, sorry!) this shoot was done about three weeks ago at the beautiful very art deco building of the San Jose California theater.  We had incredible result photographing entire shoot with the world 1st FULL FRAME pocket size camera the ONE and only SONY Cybert-shot RX1.   Every picture from this post was shot with the pocket size RX1!!!! It’s so rad that technology today enables us to produce super fine quality photography using the smallest tool available. Love this camera because my arms are no longer tired after a long day of shooting!!  We are extremely thrilled to embrace such new technology and to show our view of fashion to the world and we hope you enjoy these photographs.  Big shout out to the SONY USA team, Tiny Trigger & SRS Portable Lighting, Larry Hancock & Laurie Warner at the San Jose Opera, Jessie Weng of Makeup by Jessie, photo retouched by Jeremy Chan, amazing model team: Benjamin Kline from Look SF; Hecktor Carrillo, Nina Noir, Crystal Natsuko and wardrobe styling by me – Zabrina 😛

Can you guess who is who in these photos? Which one is Mr. Gatsby?  Haha!! Leave Comment below & link to your facebook for a chance to win a very cool form fitting SONY T-Shirt, some awesome swags such as SONY Alpha pins and our very own JeZa postcards with images shot from the SONY Cybert-shot RX1.
