Less About Me More About U

My name is Puriantoh Supu and my nickname is SAN. I was born in Sabah in 1974 but moved to Kuala Lumpur in 1992. I graduated in Mechatronics Engineering, majoring in Robotics. I have working experience in the engineering field as well as in the Insurance industry at Nestle Plant, Mint Hotel, Cunningham Lindsey (M) Sdn Bhd, Labuan Reinsurance Ltd and currently employed by a local insurance company based in Kuala Lumpur.

My photography experience started in 1998 as part of job requirement which involved taking photos of building cracks, damaged equipment and all that were related to engineering insurance claims. I was using Canon full frame film camera and stick with the brand until now.

From SLR to DSLR. From job requirement it became a serious hobby and it become an obsession. I always love to challenge myself in delivering photography assignments and there is always new things to learn. Which is why I love this freelancing. Photography as a freelance gives me the freedom to be creative and spend time on delivering quality images. When I got me eyes on the viewfinder, it really feels like a whole new world. With digital, everything is possible.

The transition from film based to DSLR was not difficult at all. In fact, I am glad that DSLR technology came through. It makes our life easier especially in managing thousands of images. Editing is now beyond what you can imagine with new and improved editing software in the market.

Photographer & Digital Manipulation

Professional photographers that still have the idea that they do not need to know too much about Photoshop skills and digital manipulation will not last long in the industry. This is my opinion, off course. DSLR is not just about capturing images and submit the results to your client. It is far beyond that.

Nowadays photographers shoot with post-processing in their mind. How to improve the images by digital adjustment and digital manipulation in order to produce outstanding images.

Which is why the courses I am offering are only in two areas; DSLR Photography and Photoshop for Photographers.


My Equipment

About 90% of the images taken and shown in my gallery were from Canon 5D MkII and a couple of L lenses . The rests were shots from Canon 50D .

I also own a complete set of studio lighting equipment at my home studio. They are portable and can be carried along for any assignments.

Art or Science?

If you don't master the science of photography you can still be an artist through imagination and creativity. But one need to master the science in order to realize the imagination. Anyone can be a photographer but not everyone can be an artist. I believe in order to be successful in this field, a photographer need to master the science before he or she can become an artist.

Which is why we should never be satisfied and stop learning.

ME in Gothic

This is me in Gothic style. Don't get me wrong. This is not how I dress up every day. This was for our company's annual dinner and I was dressing up for that one night event
ONLY.

Shots with studio light were taken by invited photographer using Canon 40D with JPG. The moment I directed the photographer on the specific composition I wanted he asked whether or not I am a photographer. I guess it was too obvious.... It was fun and thanks to my wife makeup remover, I managed to remove those cheap eye liner and eye shadow.
Gothic hair style got it done at RM35 at a saloon. These shots taken with 8MP Nikon Coolpix, handheld by myself. Those hair will grow back....

Crazy how people stare at you with this kind of hair style.....
I'm wondering.... what the hack am I going to do with those accessories now?
