William, Anggie & Jeremy: Portraits

Portraits

One of the things I love about being a photographer is the fact that I’ve had the pleasure of meeting so many wonderful people. This session was no less as I got to meet Anggie and her two boys ;) – her husband William and her adorable son, Jeremy. Anggie contacted me a couple of months back after stumbling upon my blog and we’ve been corresponding since then. 

She had selected the day of her 6th wedding anniversary for the maternity and family portrait session and it was coincidentally, exactly a month before her maternity due date. Our session was done around Taman Tun area and I had a ball throughout the session. Whilst the weather was overcast when we first started shooting, the clouds cleared up when we got to the park and we got some pretty sweet natural light then :) So yay for good weather!


Hey there cute family ;D





Anggie, you’ve got one gorgeous baby bump!


Lil Jeremy is such a happy child – he was smiling throughout the shoot. I like!





Jeremy has already started playing with his little brother :D

Somebody was getting a tad bit tired after a morning of running around ;)

Anggie, William and Jeremy – I had tons of fun during the session and you were an absolute delight to work with. I love how comfortable you all are in front of the camera and just how happy Jeremy is. It’s just great to see how much a child is being showered with love that he’s constantly smiling. And I found it really cute when you two started laughing when I said that we’re reenacting your wedding day poses. Nothing wrong with reliving some memories eh? ;) Have a great week ahead!

Omar & Juliana – Portraits

Portraits

I met Oli and Nina a couple of years ago. Back in the days when I used to climb regularly, I would see them at the indoor climbing gym and it was evident that climbing was a shared love for the both of them.

So it was no surprise to me to hear that Oli had proposed to Nina on a trip last year to the climbing mecca, Krabi. It was on a multi-pitch route at Thaiwand wall that Oli surprised Nina with a ring. Of course, Oli was worried about dropping the ring but thankfully, he managed to keep the rock safe from the rocks.

Geddit, geddit? Rock on rock? :p

After six months of preparation, Oli and Nina will be married with a solemnisation ceremony at her parents home tomorrow. And yours truly will have the pleasure of capturing shots from this meaningful day. wOOt :)

As a preview to their wedding pictures which will come in the next couple of weeks, here are some of my favourite shots of Oli and Nina done during a portrait session a couple of weeks ago at Cyberview Lodge.






They were laughing so much throughout the whole session that I was tempted to call this whole set
“The Laughing Couple” ;)



Yowza! Hot couple alert!

But they can get pretty silly as well ;)

Oli & Nina, thanks again for the honour :) You two were an absolute blast to shoot and I so can’t wait for tomorrow’s ceremony! See you soon!


  1. Nazra says:

    Now THAT’s one wedding proposal that you won’t get to see anywhere else but here at your website, Anna. I’ve seen underwater ones, but this one..woohoo!

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE that shot, especially that look on her face. She must have been very surprised!

    p.s. Good luck with tomorrow’s nikah shoot. I’m looking forward to that. :)

  2. Sherrie says:

    Anna, I think this is probably one of my favoritest photoshoots you’ve done :D Love it!

  3. yeahwei says:

Lareina & Sidi: Portraits

Portraits

Thanks to Sherrie, I had the pleasure of meeting Lareina recently when she and Sidi came back from Indiana for a visit. First impression was that they’re both quiet and reserved but as we continued with the shoot, it was apparent that Lareina and Sidi have a wacky side to them as well! But of course, those wacky pictures will not be revealed on this humble blog of mine ;p

Lareina and Sidi, it was a pleasure to meet you two and thanks for being so perky despite having to wake up sooooooo early. And thank you too for helping me get that Shootsac cover. Yay! Hope you enjoy the rest of your stay in KL and have fun catching up with the family :)






And here’s a shout-out to Lareina’s parents whom I met briefly before we started Lareina and Sidi’s portrait session. When I was introduced to Mrs Tan, I extended my hand and was about to shake her hand when she pulled me in for one of the warmest, biggest hugs I’ve received in a long time. And you know what? That big hug made my day! So Lareina, do thank your Mama for the best hug I’ve receive in awhile. wOOt!

Lareina’s parents, Mr & Mrs Tan
