Join us on exciting photo trip to Singapore in August 2010 and Bali in October 2010!

What makes a good person? Their background? Appearance? Behavior ? Words they utter? Actions they take?
I don’t normally go on a “fun” shooting trip, as the weekly photography projects as they are now, are already taking up so much of my time. But when Ron (one of our all time fave clients, ^_^) asked me to come along on this session, I was in need of a break, so I went.
I was so glad I said yes to Ron. I now know what makes a good person to photographers: a couple that’s (even though you just met) so friendly and nice that you’d have so much fun photographing them.
Andrian and Yuwi: thanks for letting me come along.

I’ll never forget Ron, ^_^ Just the thought of him puts a grin on my face any time. ^_^ The guy insisted that he would choose us as his pre-wedding/wedding photographer if and only if we would teach him photography. Go figure. ^_^
I initially thought, he’d just be another hyped-up guy who just picked up photography, and would leave photography at a drop of a hat. But boy, was I wrong. And I truly was glad to be wrong. ^_^
He was diligent, persistent, critical, and sharp (not to mention damn fun to be around). Go see his facebook page, if you don’t believe me. Look at how far his photographs have come. ^_^
Dude, I’m proud of you. See you at your wedding, ^_^
PS: and what about Diana? Let’s just say: Ron is one damn lucky dude, ^_^
What a rush job! ^_^ We only met Zerin 4 days before the shoot, and didn’t meet Steve until the morning of the session.
I was so worried that I almost turned down the kind job offer. For those who really know me, I love a good and thorough preparation. ^_^ I love getting to know the couple months before the shoot, preparing a suitable concept with them, picking out wardrobes, etc.
I even became more worried when Steve walked out of the car as I saw a very serious and towering figure in him. But thanks to my team, especially Rudy, laughter and off-beat jokes started to fill the atmosphere within 15 mins. ^_^ My worry? Evaporated, ^_^
Don’t believe me? See the pics for yourself. ^_^
People ask me, in the middle of my busy life, why I go through all the trouble, how do I find the energy to be a pre wedding/wedding photographer? Aren’t you tired? Don’t the long hours get old quickly? Aren’t you bored?
If we look around us, love has become a rarity, so difficult to find. Its definition shifted, true love now lives in the heart of so few.
I believe in true love, and I wish this to every one I meet, as it’s a joy everyone should feel, at least once in their lifetime. And that’s why I take these pictures, as I search for true love in the expressions and the moments captured.
Call me foolish, call me crazy, call me anything. But I hope that my pictures can be a constant reminder to everyone to keep searching for, and hanging on to your true love.
Har and Nia, thanks for the moments, ^_^
We all were worried for Yaya (Reza’s nickname), ^_^ We kept telling her that someone as nice and as kind as her did not have to worry at all, that she’d find someone perfect real soon.
For those of you who are friends with Yaya, you can’t help but care for her, as she does for everyone around her. So when you hear that she’s finally getting married, you immediately would want to meet the lucky guy, look him up and down, and hope that he’s right for your dear friend.
As soon as I met Rudy, I was more than relieved, I was ecstatic! ^_^ A gentleman, lost in the midst of today’s world, whose manner would bring any girl to their knees.
Yaya and Rudy – glad to have made you both laugh, glad to have been there for you guys. This is for you. ^_^
When one of your best friends is getting married, you cannot help but feel a little old, a little over the hill. Your memories of her is her in high school uniform, and not in wedding gowns; skipping classes, not walking down the isle; sweet 17 parties, definitely not weddings,^_^
And then you cannot help but feel so happy for her, seeing that she’s finally on her way.
Li, this is for you and Henry. So sorry I couldn’t be there for your wedding. But know that we’re all smiles, from ear to ear, knowing that you’re smiling on your big day.
Oh, what a morning.. The super spicy Iga Penyet I ate the day before did not sit well at all with my fragile stomach the whole night..
But the day turned north as soon as we saw the couple with their lit up faces and the gazillions balo0ns they managed to bring, ^_^
Welly and Yen2, thanks. Your session proved to work better on me than Norit! ^_^ j/k
PIK, Gading, Dufan, Monas, etc. The sessions took us on a trip all over Jakarta ^_^
Some may not believe that these shots were taken in town, but take my word: they were. ^_^ Though we worked real hard to make them appear otherwise.
Sofyan and Wenny were very cooperative. So cooperative that even every single piece of their wardrobes was consulted with us. The result? Check out the pictures for yourselves. I’ll be adding them daily. Cheers all!
Definitely one of the quickest sessions ever! ^_^
Ron and Syl were so easy to photograph that we were genuinely surprised each time we checked the expressions on the camera. “Hm? We already got the shot? This soon?”
Perhaps it’s their chemistry, perhaps it’s their real level of comfort, perhaps it’s their true friendship. Whatever it is, keep it coming guys! ^_^
