The building that Xin Lau was at was shared by many other buisnessess. The Photography Department was on the 8th floor. Upon exiting from the elevator, there were many hallways. rooms that were designed for Photo Shoots, Editing, Wardrobe, Photo Galleries, and even a 'Painting Room.' This room was Xin's where he often painted. The walls of the hallways were painted light blue with trees in vivid detail going along the walls. Birds and forest animals were painted in such detail. Who knew a person had such free time. People walked along the hallways to deliver photos that were recently taken, edited  and ready to be sent off to be put in magazines, newspapers, articles, you name it. Xin's buisness was called 'Lau Photography' respectfully in his family's name.<br/><br/>One room near the end of the hallway had a sign that said, 'Xin Lau, Photographer' on it. Below that said, 'Photo Shoot.' Along the walls of the hallway wer billboards with pictures on them. One showed the staff, labeled 'Staff of Lau Photography' another picture showed Xin Lau himself. He was posing with a peace sign, a grin on his face. beyond entering Xin's room, the room was large. The walls were light blue with trees painted on theme. A river cut through the forest, showing a Buck drinking from the river.<br/><br/>The setup for a photo shoot could be seen. Tables with camera bodies and lenses rested alongside flash cards and laptops. Flash units and Lighting option swere in position. Many people were there helping with lighting and equipment. Tripods and monopods were in position for formal portraiture and long exposures as well as quick movements. Filters, Radio Slaves, Backdrops, Props, Posing tools, Shooting tables and Printers lined around the studio. Each employee handling something. Xin was busy with a photo shoot, taking pictures of a girl dressed in a beautiful gray winter jacket, blue jeans and matching gray winter boots. The backdrop was a winter-like part of downtown. She was posing with a phone to her ear.<br/><br/>When the shoot finished 10 minutes later, Xin went to a table filled with food and beverages. He took a bottle of water and drank from it. He looked calm, cool, friendly and a little full on energy. The way he treated the staff was also well done too. So this was Satoru's friend,<a class="postlink" href="http://i787.photobucket.com/albums/yy158/Sableye10/XinLao_zpsfc7912a0.png">Xin Lau</a>.
