We Went to the Zoo!

Iffah wanted so much to go to the zoo. So we went last Sunday. It was her second visit. She was still small the first time we went.
On the day, our little darling was SO surprised to see how big the giraffes and elephants are that she didn't want to come near them. LOL. All this while she saw them in books and TV, probably their real sizes were not to her anticipation! And the fact that Iffah was a bit sleepy... and dreamy perhaps those animals might have looked GIGANTIC to her eyes.

The pictures above was her staying near to the lake where all the flamingos were. She loved them! And mommy loved taking pictures of her, again and again!

After much picture taking, then she was okay to look at those giraffes and elephants, BUT only from far ;)

Nonetheless, after almost two hours touring the zoo, Iffah indeed hava had fun.
She loved all the animals, yeah she did! As long as they won't come near her, LOL.

And she said she wanted to go there again, this time with her favourite cousin Kak Yaya.


So where's the animal?
Huhuh mommy takes lousy animal pictures!
Probably post them, probably not ;p LOL

Our Darling Baby

Three things Iffah loves doing nowadays

1) Playing, and playing, and playing
Note for mommy and daddy: What should we get her?

2) Painting, at least once a week.
Note to nenek: Probably a little apron for her coming birthday ;)
Note to atok: A new painting set perhaps, heheh.

2) Reading book with mommy. Sometime it's a marathon of books... LOL its mommy who ends up dozing off, huhuh.
Note to uncles and aunties: Jom shopping for her new books ;)

Innocence

Over and over, I fall in love with little angel.
This one is no exception...

VOTE FOR ME

Alhamdulillah, the picture that I took of my niece has been shortlisted in the KL Photo Awards 2009.



If you like my picture, don't forget to vote me ya! Mine is no. 12 ;)

Thanks, you HOT people :)

Vote Earth Hour - 6 more days left

Let this be a sign that we care for our children's future

Check out Earth Hour for further details...



Don't forget to switch off your light Saturday, March 28th 8.30 to 9.30 pm :)

What do I plan to do?
I want to enjoy the beautiful sky at night, gazing at the stars!


Eart Hour really reminds me of three things:

1)I loved looking at the beautiful night sky back in my hometown. I lived by the sea and the sky is just so magestic at night!

2) I used to climb mountains back in my university years. The thing I won't miss when I was on top of the world was the night sky!

3) Shooting stars! Loads of them! Yes in Malaysia. Back during my university years in Penang. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!

Imagine if everyone takes the pledge to turn off the light it will be a beautiful time to enjoy the night sky for there will be no artificial light to get in our way. More importantly we're voting for earth NOT global warming.

Remember, switching light off on the day is your vote for earth. Your vote is very significant. The target is 1 billion votes. If the target is reached, WWF will present our voice to the world leaders at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009.

"This meeting will determine official government policies to take action against global warming, which will replace the Kyoto Protocol. It is the chance for the people of the world to make their voice heard," Earth Hour.

Let our children sleep soundly and be assured of a beautiful tommorrow.

Langkawi Getaway

Adam

Adrenalin rush...

I'm SOOO excited :)

I just received a very, very good news today!

Heheh, will spill the news later on ;)

Btw, we're heading back to hubby's hometown today :)

Iffah and her Red Wall

Last Monday we went for a quick portrait session at our daughter's favourite Red Wall. I asked her a few days ealier where would she like to have her portrait session this time around. I even suggested a place for us to go. Yet, like usual, her answer was "Red Wall."

Don't be surprise not only that it has the red background at our favourite Red Wall. You''ll get blue, yellow, grey wall and even green surrounding there. Hahah but this time no yellow or grey to be seen in the pictures. Tak sempat. We needed to head to the city afterwards.

Back home, after going through all her pictures, Iffah told me to print only the blue background. No more red she said. It's a lot already. LOL probably this time she had enough of her Red Wall.

The night before she went to sleep hugging her new book. So I thought it would be lovely to have a picture of her hugging the book. She liked the idea! And I like it in vintage ;)



And this is her idea; to pose like this with her new favourite book ;)


LOL, kid being kid!
Totally her idea! We wanted her to pretend reading the book, and this is what we got instead! And I thought it's cool :)


And like always giving mommy her sweet laugh ;)


Notice her hand?


Me and Iffah had a fun time that I forgot it isn't environmentally friendly to pluck so many flowers. My hubby reminded us later on, "don't forget the butterflies need them too." Huhuh, I have to be more thoughtful the next time ;) We got to teach our kids to love the nature in the right way! Hehe one or two probably still be okay right hubby?

Sent from Heaven...

My long awaiting dream to capture a newborn girl finally came true. I wanted to update my newborn profile and I was so happy when my friend, Anis answered my call.

I have to admit photographing a newborn is not an easy one. But the joy of being able to photograph that sweet innocent little person is too incredible to describe into words. There's a miracle in them that fills our world with so much happiness and beauty.

And I was so overwhelmed when I got the chance to photograph my friend's daughter, little sweet Annisa.

Here are some of my favourites of her ;)










While I was busy photographing little Annisa inside, her big brother Amar was busy 'washing' his atok's car outside.
So when baby Annisa needed a time for her mommy's milk, I quickly went outside with his big sister Ainur to join the fun. I was too excited that i forgot to change my ISO setting that was set for indoor lighting, LOL. Hence the pictures came out a bit over exposed.



And the more fun is when little Amar started to spray water at us!





Back in the house, Amar wouldn't want to miss the change to be in the picture. And this is so much a candid of him doing an interframe, LOL!



Actually I have had two photo sessions for baby Annisa. Reason being apart from updating my profile I'm also having her pictures for a project, which I could not reveal now ;)

I have few pictures that I wanted to post here but it won't be that thrill if I post all my favourite pictures for the project here. So I guess at the moment let's have this one first ;)

Can't help falling in love

Another newborn shot that I did.
Oh I can't stop falling in love with little tiny toes

Little Annisa again

I'm so into Lenka's music lately.
Her songs are just so upbeat, beautiful, and kinda poetic.
I think she's the sweet version of Bjork.
Bjork is intelligent and all that but she's kinda weird to me. But Lenka, she's cute!
Here's my fav this afternoon Lenka's Don't Let Me Fall.

And I can't help posting this picture of little Annisa.
Once all the editing works are done I will definitely post the serie ;)



Hope her picture will make your day, as she has made mine ;)

To Anis and her little angel Annisa

When my Iffah was born, I was so overjoyed that I could not describe the feelings that I have for her. I wanted to dedicate every love song that I listen to my dear little angel, especially when I'm at work or in the car, away from my 'buah hati.'

It really brought back the memory when I look at this picture of Anis and her little angel, Annisa.




Oh by the way, this song is one of them Lifehouse's You Belong to Me.


see the pyramids around the Nile
watch the sunrise from a tropic isle
just remember darling all the while -
you belong to me

see the marketplace in old Angier
send me photographs and souvenirs
just remember when a dream appears -
you belong to me

and I'll be so alone without you
maybe you'll be lonesome too

fly the ocean in a silver plane
see the jungle when it's wet with rain
just remember till you're home again -
you belong to me

oh I'll be so alone without you
maybe you'll be lonesome too

fly the ocean in a silver plane
see the jungle when it's wet with rain
just remember till you're home again -
you belong to me

Fresh New Start

Alhamdulillah, after almost two weeks with a pc problem I'm back to work.
The problem has been resolved :)

Thanks to dear friends who have been waiting patiently to get update of their pictures.
So no worries, I'm currently working on them :)


Since this is a photo blog, the entry won't be complete without a picture.
I'm a huge fan of little toes! So here goes ;)
