Kids Photography @ The Club, BangsarThe Little Mandarin House in Bangsar organized this outings with all the kids before their school break.We have summer all year long in Malaysia, hence we do not need any reason to immerse ourselves in a pool. I was so happy to see all these kids having fun without worries in their minds. How I wished I could join them though...Bring your kids to the pool this

Baby Photography @ Cheras, Kuala LumpurBaby photography particularly when he is about 8-12 month old is a little bit difficult to shoot. The reason is during this time he is going to move a lot by crawling and he would not like to listen to your instruction, I mean he would not understand much anyway. But being patience is definitely a must and it will pay off in the end...Thanks for looking...

Running, kicking balls or swinging, they will love it all. Children or kids are just that simple, all they ask for is some of your time to bring them to have some fun... not asking too much aren't they?Make some time for your

Maternity Photography @ Shutterbugs StudioSome mothers will put on a lot of weights during pregnancy and some don't. Some baby bumps will grow so big and some just a little bigger than their husband beer belly. Whatever it is, they are all equally beautiful and unique (except the beer belly part! :p).

Personal Portfolio Photography @ Putrajaya, Malaysia.It was a cloudy day at noon. The lighting was dull but we were lucky enough to get some interesting shots using off-camera flash. This pretty young lady was a little bit shy, hence the location in Putrajaya, less people and traffic. A great place for photo shooting. We were spoilt for choice to choose our background, eventhough, for portrait

Kids Photography @ Shutterbugs StudioWow, it really has been a while since I last updated my blog. Been busy, not with photography though but with family matters. Still busy but would like to take off some time to update this blog.Another wonderful thing about photographing babies or kids is that if they come back for your service, literally, you could watch him/her grows.

Baby Photography @ Shutterbugs StudioPeople tends to think that she is a 'boy'. So to make her more 'girlish' we decided to make her wear a dress, put on a hair clip and well... a pair of fairy wings. Not really very 'girlish', but hey... she does look cute, doesn't she.Thanks for looking...

I am still busy with it but just have to blog about this little baby of 3 months old. He was about to shave his head for religious purposes so his parents wanted to "keep" his hair as memories and had his pictures taken. He has so much hair that would be envy of

Baby Photography @ Shutterbugs StudioWe were in the studio actually. But I believe the parents would love to get some pictures of their son on the beach. Hmm... Not that I am complaining, but I do prefer the "real" beach if situation permits. Outdoor portrait is definitely one of my favourite photography. But to arrange one really needs everybody time and commitment.In the studio, well, I don't

Kids Photography @ Shutterbugs StudioKids at this age normally would be a challenge to shoot as they are not going to be still for long and they won't listen to you. Lucky for me, this kid was different. He was so sweet and he would pose for you whenever you asked him to. And yet, he doesn't speak english. I would really love to shoot him again, maybe outdoor. Hope his parents like the photos

Baby Photography @ IpohI have been trying some new photography techniques I learned thru the internet. Using on-camera flash only to correctly exposed the subject and underexposed the background slightly, we got a more dramatic portrait. I did bounce the flash on the walls at both side. I was quite satisfied with the result. Of course my little cute model also played a part in helping me to

Children's Photography @ D.R. Seenivasagam Park, Ipoh.These are some of the photos from the same session but with different kids. Shooting all these kids running around doing their own business was actually quite tiring but in the end looking at those pictures and knowing that their parents will like them, was actually kind of feeling I had achieved something.

This place is just perfect for any kids if he wants to have a fun filled day without the parents being too worried about their safety. The parents could accompany the kids if they choose to.

Baby Photography @ Shutterbugs StudioParents play a very important role during the photo shooting session. The babies will feel more comfortable and relax if the parents play and interact with them and as a result the babies will be more natural. This is what I try to achieve.

While going thru all the photos that I took, I found a particular shot that I actually like a lot. I processed and cropped it and came to this: He came back this time with his parents. He has grown up so much and much more willing to pose for the camera. Or maybe he has gotten used

Portrait Photography @ Shutterbugs StudioThis was another beautiful young lady who was willing to be my model for a day in my studio. Being young and shy, I would definitely need to break the ice to make her feel more comfortable in front of the camera. After a few shots, she was more relax and I got some shots that I like.

This stool is supposedly to train baby to sit in a proper posture. Hmm... this is not the first time I see it.

Type: Baby Photography, Location: My Studio.This little boy has been to my studio for a few times, mostly with his parents. This time he came with his aunt. He wasn't very co-operative that day, but we ( I meant everyone in the studio) somehow managed to get his attention to take some decent but lovely shots. Actually, he was crying most of the time... sleepy I guessed.

Another must visit place in Bali called Tanah Lot or simply "Temple on the Rock". I was told the view is best during sunset but I wasn't able to do that due to time constraint. What a waste! But I always told myself, not to worry, cos I know I will be going there again. Once is just not enough!

I was in Bali early last month for holidays. A short and tiring holidays but interesting one. Beautiful scenery, great foods and friendly people are some of the stuff I remembered on that trip. Will definitely go back again in the future. Perhaps a longer one.This was taken at one of the many famous temple in Bali called Uluwatu.Here you could see the people gathering to enjoy a show called "

"My first studio shoot with mommy." I think that's what she will say if she could. I was told this little girl looks just like her mommy when she was at her age. Big eyes, chubby face and a little curly hair. Bet she will grow up pretty like her mommy too...

This cute little girl was actually just woke up from her sleep. Already all smile and ready for her photo shoot. She likes to listen to people talking and she will "talk" back and smile once she listens long enough. "Talking" to her definitely will make your day, more so if it is early in the morning.

I have been revising the portrait packages of last year and found that most clients would like to have all the photos taken for the session rather than being limited a certain amount of photos only. Also I found that most would only want the photos in digital/soft copy format and do not need print-outs at all. Photobook/album is just a bonus, if can they most likely choose not to have one. So, I

Birthday party was always fun to shoot, leave alone kids birthday party. With all kids running around, foods everywhere and screaming, little Belle, the birthday girl, was just way cool to celebrate her day.Happy Birthday Belle... May you have wonderful year ahead.

Received a call last week for enquiry to shoot a wedding. Well, sort of. The caller was the groom's sister actually looking for a photographer to shoot her two lovely kids during the dinner reception. She thought that would be a perfect time to have family photos as well. Hmm... I guessed when would be a better time than wedding to have all your relatives present at the same time.

I have been asked to make the photo collage for a mandarin learning kindergarten/nursery in Bangsar called Little Mandarin House. I have done some photo shooting for this particular kindergarten/nursery before but not the collage thing. They have never seen anything like that before.

Eunice, she is just adorable. She's just got her new "beetle" so she wanted me to photograph it with her. I've never met a little girl who likes playing with cars, maybe this has got to do with fact that she has five other cousin brothers in addition to her own elder brother. Ohh... and beside cars I think she likes to play with toy guns too...Samson is her elder brother... he got the yellow one.

I was visiting FRIM (in Kepong)one day to do some portrait shooting. The day was fine but I made the wrong decision and took the wrong route up to the Canopy Walk. It was about 900m hiking thru jungle trail to reached the entrance of the Canopy Walk. I was so tired when I finally reach up there that I literally out of breath.But this kid was so energetic that he reached the entrance first beating

Kindergarten is the time when kids start to make new friends and learn new stuffs. But more often than not, these kids would not be able to remember their new friends after they leave the pre-school later on. I am one of them... and I think most of us as well... right? Bet, most of you don't even remember your kindergarten teacher's name...So, why not let them leave the pre-school with something

She was not really into "nude" session and we have a hard time to pose her naked... In the end we let her put on the clothes and she started to feel more comfortable and fell asleep. After that I managed to get more "cutey" photos of her.

This was the outdoor shoot for the kindergarten (Non Stop Fun At School) that I had taken a few weeks back. The location was a place called The Club at Bukit Utama. This place has a great pool for kids and adults alike. The weather was good and the kids really were having good fun in and out of the water. Hmm... wish I was not on duty and jump into the water.

Since I started photographing, I notice that a lot of people, not only they don't print their photos, they only keep them in the computers and don't even do any back up for them. Some don't even have a computer and keep only in their memory cards. These fools don't know that memory cards are more easily get corrupted then hard drives. These photographs don't seem very important if nothing happen

This baby girl definitely has a pair of big eyes. Her eyes are so big that they draw your attention straight away. She just woke up before the photo shoot, but unlike other babies which use to cry whenever awaken up, this little princess doesn't even make a noise, because she really loves to smile! She is such a doll...

The other day I went back to Ipoh to celebrate my wife's birthday so I got the chance to take some of Bryan's photos. Boy... he does grow fast. The last time I took his photographs he was still couldn't speak and walk yet. Now, he could already speak some simple words and walk on his own. He doesn't even want you to hold him while walking anymore.He just loves water... look how "lummm"....He

Few weeks ago I had a chance to follow my sister to a river at Hulu Langat, Selangor, for a family picnic outing. The water was so cool and refreshing that I almost forgot I was actually still in the city, well sort of. This place is just 40mins drive from KL.Obviously I won't give up a chance to photographs my nephews (yeah, I know, my nephew again...). They were so hyperactive and never wanted

Not really a school but more like a nursery/kindergarten located in Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur. These kids learn chinese and they all can speak very well my friends. I was asked to photographs these kids at school while they are having fun during breaks and while they are learning. It's not easy but fun though. Here are the sneak-peek of some of the photos taken that I like...A quick snap of this two

I did some studio shoots some time ago for these two little cuties. One of them is not even 2 months old I guess. The other was a little bigger almost a year old. The thing is, babies shoot is never too young to start. And you know what, the best time to shoot newborns is actually within the first to second weeks old!!. Cos, that's how the pro can keep the "curling" pose of the newborns...Happy

After last photo shoots at my studio in Cheras, I was called to make another shoot in Ipoh. Well, i was more than willing to make the shoots as he was so adorable and just so easy to shoot. After all he is my nephew....and he likes the camera!! His parents already ask me to shoot as he grows older. Will post more of his photos in future...

He is such an adorable baby. For a 5 months old baby, he definitely knows how to pose for the camera. We laughed that he has "camera detection" with his eyes cos he will just stop and pose whenever he sees a camera in front of him. Make my job so much easier... These shots are all taken in Shutterbugs Studio at Cheras. Will shoot at his home next... in Ipoh!!
