when she was 6 and a 1/2

// August 29th, 2010 // No Comments » // Places

And so I promised Yau; an old friend who used to by my colleague. We got to know each other 5 years back then when I was still working in the southern region, Johor Bahru.

The promise which I managed to keep, helping him in taking portraiture photos of June; his lovely wife. Photography has been part of my interest and I’ve been photographing mainly on landscape & building structure at places around Kuala Lumpur.

I have to admit that portraiture shooting was never my kind. Nevertheless, it is a promise. Only thing, the complexity level increases when I found out on the very day itself that it was a photographing session when she was 6 and a 1/2 pregnant.

Shots were taken at a lake garden located in Taman Wawasan, Puchong.

Am glad that I’ve kept the promise. Not only I’ve got to learn new thing that are useful when it comes to portraiture photographing but being able to witness it with my own eyes of the smiling faces on the happy couple at how parenthood will be in the coming months was indeed remarkable.

Blessed Couple – Yau & June

Limkokwing – Creativity in Motion 2010

// August 8th, 2010 // 4 Comments » // Places

4 August 2010 was a night to remember in the fashion industry as Limkokwing Fashion and Hair Design present Fashion Creativity in Motion. Located at Jaya One, the theme focused on just one word Culture.

The fashion show is a cultural blend of design and creativity where 26 designers were chosen to showcase their garment known for their bestworks.

Decided to attend the fashion show after receiving an invitation from Kah Wai, the Associate Director of Media Relations & PR for Limkokwing University.

Hosts of the night

The fashion show started with singing performances from two groups which I peronally find them to be very much talented.

Moving on, the much anticipated models on runway showcasing garment which include mixes and blends of material with influences from great Ming Dynasty in China, ethnic Dayaks in Borneo, Quashghai people of Iran, and many others.

Next up, models strut down the catwalk in hairstyles focused on the fabulous Glam Rock creations. The hairstyles were epitome of the rock lifestyle. Time to rock the world.

Back to performance time,  a round of applause to the guy in beatboxing.

And the current hit song Break Your Heart was performed so well that I thought it was Taio Cruz himself.

The second part of the fashion show is on Ethnic – Limkokwing Black collection; a series of billowing gowns known for their impeccable tailoring and detail as it exhibits the talented works of Limkokwing’s alumni.

The fashion show ended with the final runway on the introduction of fashion designers from Limkokwing University. I have to admit that the fashion show indeed showcased the student’s inspirational ideas and true form of originality in the fashion world.

Creativity in Motion by Limkokwing University of Creative Technology definitely brought imagination and energy of the fashion industry to Jaya One that night.

Putrajaya Floria 2010

// July 20th, 2010 // 2 Comments » // Places

Floria 2010; The third Malaysia’s garden and flower showcase held at the Waterfront Precint 2, Putrajaya from 10th to 18th July with the theme Tropical Splendour.

It was said that the Floria event showcases the best of the Malaysian and International landscape along with horticulture  industry. This may sound sad, but it’s true. I’ve sighted carrots, cucumber, and other variety of vegetables more than to flowers.

One of the horrendous experience on floral photoshooting as the flowers displayed are common and could be seen on every street of Malaysia thus making this event with only an average number of crowd.

Some random shots of the flowers available in the Floria event.

Upon leaving, we were greatly blessed on a remarkable landscape shot of the Putrajaya scenery. Well, at least it wasn’t a wasted trip.
