Ok. So I didn’t do today’s workout which involved DU’s (for me TJ’s). Instead did the following workout from 2008;
In 20mins, complete AMRAP of;
10 goblet squat (20kgs KB)
10 pull ups (CTB)
Results: 8rounds + 8
A decline of 2 rounds compared to what I did last year. I think overloading on my vices last night whacked me out.

100 Sit ups
Results: 3:38
Ooo…my quads were feeling it

Deck of cards at the park. Didn’t keep count of the push ups, pull ups, sit ups or squats done. But damn, this was a good workout :p

Warmed up and cooled down with 1 lower loop each time
Cindy: 8 rounds
Did this at the park, great to workout when the weather’s nice outdoors :)

I don’t usually do this. Y’know, blog about a wedding a couple of hours after the event itself. But seeing that it is after all, the first day of 2010, I just wanted to share this particular set of pictures for the whole shoot was a series of firsts for me.

It was the first time for me to shoot an intimate Malay wedding with less than 80 guests, it was the first time for me to shoot at Villamay, a gorgeous spa in Shah Alam and it was the first time one of my brides wore pants for her wedding day. For real. Underneath her gorgeous sequined top, Mastura was wearing a pair of comfy silk pants with her flat bejewelled sandals. I love brides who are stylishly comfortable!

When I first met Azmal and Mastura a couple of months back, I was immediately smitten by their love for each other. Cheesy I know but that’s how I felt. As they told me their story of how they met thru’ work, how they decided to get married not long after they started dating and how they wanted to have a simple wedding as all they wanted was just to be married to each other, I was really smitten. Call me a romantic at heart, but meeting couples like Azmal and Mastura is suh-weet!

I was flabbergasted when I arrived at Villamay in Shah Alam. An absolutely gorgeous venue for intimate weddings!


Azmal seemed a bit nervous before the ceremony while Mastura put on a good show of being calm & collected ;)


Support, agreement and faith – multiple hands with different stories


Nary a dry eye after the solemnisation ceremony

Brunch do’s are awesome! Azmal & Mastura could enjoy the rest of the day being newlyweds :)


So cute! Swing, swing ;)

Azmal & Mas, yes, I think I’ve repeatedly said this, but thank you again for the pleasure and thank you for sharing the first day of 2010 with me. You two are so chilled out and laid back that it was an absolute breeze to work with you. I love the fact that you chose to have an intimate, meaningful ceremony instead of conforming to the norm. As a matter of fact, many things about you two have pleasantly surprised me. You’re definitely in a league of your own :) Here’s to an uber awesome 2010 ahead!
