Marcus

I'm doing a re-entry and this one is specially for Melissa and her family. About a month after our portrait session, Melissa delivered me a good news. The arrival of their newborn baby girl, Asha. Dearest Melissa, heartiest congratulations to you and family :)

The portrait session that we had was for Marcus, Melissa's eldest son.

This is my favourite portrait shot of Marcus, and I just can't choose the post-processing that I like the most between the two, so let's just have both of them!



Boys will always be boys. They love to run here and there, and they just never stop. I'm glad that I had taken the above portrait even before we started to warm-up. At the time he was still assessing the place, me and the camera! And that's when I got the chance ;)

But right after, there was no way for me to sit still for he was so full of actions! Marcus was very curious and there's always something and somewhere for him to search for, run to and wander around.

And oh boy look how handsome he is here! Watch his eye contact. The left picture below tells that he's going on a heroic mission, and the right one says that he's done it, successfully!

I just love the fact that while this little guy is busy in actions, he's also very generous to give me a glance. A precious gift for someone who's behind the camera :)



I forgot to tell you that Marcus was just about 19 months at the time this session was taken place. He's so young yet he's got such a talent! He's kicking like a pro!



Guess what's stopping this little guy from being in actions? Fast machine. When ever there's a boat, bike or even a lorry passing by, Marcus will immediately stop and watch in awe (Hehe, now you wonder where is this place.)

And I guess his number one favourite is the airplane. Look at how amuse he is! And how can I resist that glance?



Father and son moments...




All through the session that I had with this beautiful family, I can feel the abundant love his parents have for Marcus. And it's amazing to see how aware Marcus is of the love they have for him.




Thanks Melissa, you guys really made my day :)

Edma's 4th Birthday updated!

Last month I had the chance to shoot a birthday event. Yay!!! It was Edma's 4th birthday. She's such a beautiful girl, and watching her I can't wait for my girl to turn 4! And the best part is I also get to snap some pictures of her lil' newborn brother.

And here are the updated pictures.


Lovely girl she is... a moment with her daddy.



Look at how thrill Emma is! And I just love her dress... and how it perfectly laid on the floor



It's time to blow the candles! Notice the excitement?



Best cousins eva! Edma's mom told me how she and Myra are so fond of each other



Best friends forever. Edma with her cousin and friend, Myra and Mariam. Awww how sweet they are



It's time to party!



So much love, so much joy... Edma loves her brother so much... lots, and lots!




Too Eee, thanks so much for having me there :)

Finally...

It's funny how one tried VERY hard to come out with a signature that best signifies her photography work - one name after another but all of them just don't ring - only to realise that the best suitable signature is actually her name itself. LOL!

Tadaa!
Mil Kassim Childhood Photography.
And I feel good looking at it :))))))))

This picture was taken last weekend. A portrait session I had with Marlini and her beautiful kids, Aleeya and Khalish. One of the best things about childhood photography is documenting the family relationship. The love is just so big and contagious. Best said it's empowering! And this picture just melt my heart. Look at the proud look on Khalish, as if he's telling me,
"See I've got a very gorgeous sister and she's loving me lots."



These kids will grow up and this picture will accompany them telling how much love they have for each other. And I guess this is the beauty of childhood photography.

Am looking forward for more brighter days ahead. InsyaAllah :)

Sneak Peek!

Aren't they sweet and adorable?
