The Untold Story

The Untold Story flickr
The Untold Story
Wearing Supre Leotard

'Being a photographic artist who spends most of the time working behind the lense, I ain't a big fan of having my photos being taken or taking my own pictures. I hate to admit this - but I am a complex contradiction at times. I am no big fan of self portrait, deeming it as an act of narccissim, yet loving it to the bits on the other hand, as it is the sole channel which I could express my creativity with no limitation. I am pretty much a shy individual most of the time. I attempt to hide my face using a camera, sunnies, or whatever I could find as a prop when my pictures are being taken. Meanwhile, there is another outrageous side of me which is frigging at its best, wanting to be seen, and not to be concealed behind the lense. I have a passion in both fashion and photography. 'The Untold Story' is a collection of my very rare self portrait, being in front of the lense doing a one man show as the photographer, the make up artist, the stylist, the art director as well as the model.'

And thanks for your support and help.


Pardon me for the lack of updates,
life has been pretty full on with uni work, wedding photography
and lastly, church conference.

I had a chance to meet 09 Australian Idol winner - Stan Walker
and photoshoot him on Monday.
It was really amazing.
Pictures will be up soon,
I promise =)

Have a great Friday.

I'm in my yet another casual working clothes.
I'm currently loving the cooled down summer days as I could finally wear my newly bought Doc Martens boots two months ago.

Exactly a year ago, i started off taking photos for Paradise Community Church at Christmas Carols and my journey as a volunteer photographer in church began.
It's indeed a sweet one and I am really blessed to have learnt so much and get to know so many amazing people <3 <3 <3

Anyway, just a short entry before heading to Carols at Elder Park with my girlies and then Lobethal drive with the boys.

Gotta love Christmas.
Heading to Sydney for a week on Tuesday.
Can't wait to see my homies again.

ps: photos are taken by Jenna and Caz
pps: Toby is still single

ps: my real name is Nicole Brooklyn YitMun Lee

As off yesterday, I've officially become an international multi awards winning photographer.
I just got notified that both Twilight inspired photos that I sent in had won 2 Bronze Awards from the International Aperture Awards 2009 =) =) =)

A big thanks to everyone who was involved in the shoot, MUA Kristy Bassett, Fashion Designer Yvonne Baulderstone of Vevo Fashion, my lovely models Deanna Freeth and Vanessa Bockmann as well as all my family and mates who have been really supportive of my work.

Pardon me for the lack of updates. I've been flooded with insanely busy schedule.
On a second note, I've already terminated my one year contract with the studio and am back into freelancing fashion work and am venturing into another new job, which I shall blog about it soon.

Gonna meet and photo shoot my favourite Australian Idol finalist,Toby Moulton this coming Friday. Can't wait =) =) =)

Til then. Much love.

Frankly speaking, I am no big fan of dark photography. All these Tim Burton wanna-bes who self-proclaim that their blood spilling, dark make up extravaganzas, outrageous suicidal dramatic images as photographic art has totally turned me off.

Enough said.

But I guess I was wrong.
The art of 'dark photography' is indeed really beautiful if one could nail it in perfection.

Meet
Luis García Craus, this talented young photographer from Spain. I was totally amazed at how he sculptured and captured the art of dark photography and fashion so beautifully. It's dark and bold, yet so elegant and classy at the same time.

And that's just inspiring!

Happy Wednesday, everyone!!!
