america's suiteheart
(click on here to watch the music vid)

You could've knocked me out with a feather,
I know you heard this all before,but we're just hells dreamers,
Wh- wh- why won't the world revolve around me,
Build my dreams, trees grow all over the streets. But I don't know much about classic cars,
but I got a lot of friends talking classic coke,
Down set one hut hut hike,
Media please. Let's hear it for America's Suitehearts,
But I must confess I'm in love with my own sins,
Let's hear it for America's Suitehearts,
But I must confess I'm in love with my own sins.
You can bow and pretend that you don't don't know you're a legend,
Time time time hasn't told anyone else yet,
Let my love loose again.
I don't know much about classic cars,
but I got a lot of friends talking classic coke,
Down, Set, one, Hut, Hut, Hike,
Media please.
Let's hear it for America's Suitehearts,
But I must confess I'm in love with my own sins,
Let's hear it for America's Suitehearts,
But I must confess I'm in love with my own sins.
You could've knocked me out with a feather,
I know you've heard this all before. Let's hear it for America's Suitehearts,
But I must confess I'm in love with my own sins,
Let's hear it for America's Suitehearts,
But I must confess I'm in love with my own sins.
Let's hear it oh let's hear it,
Let's hear it oh let's hear it,
Sweetheart.

and i'm still stunned by their voice: "tulen bang!"



well on the contrary ..
there was infact some ~hawt queens at these scene

incredibly everyone fitted in the frame..
"awesomeness"..
i'm still in awe about the whole wide angle thingy

poetic

wazaaaaaa

about 4years ago.
eryse wrote a poem to newlyborn arina..

"a special poem for my special niece"

welcome to the world my fine niece
your presence makes my fear go away
when i look at you cuddled in your mummy's arms
i know that you'll be fine someday

those tiny fingers,those little feet
make me want to love you even more
almost everyday i wonder
if you weren't here would life be a bore?

i just cant wait till you grow up into a beautiful girl
i'll bring you to places you'll never forget
i'll buy you candies,pretty dresses and toys to play with
and i'll even let you see beautiful things you've never met

as your young aunt, i am writting this poem with lots of love
lots and lots of love from the bottom of my heart
i hope you will remember me always
and i hope you'll love me as your aunt from the very start

30december2004

and why is eryse dressed like a baby?
hehehe........

water sculpture

wazaaaaaaaaaa
"Its hard to argue that freezing a moment to capture a split second in time isnt at the heart of emotive photography.As with most still-life photography,the success is in the preparation and gear setup.Although there's a fair bit of kit involved,u won't need expensive high speed strobes or technical shutter or flash triggering units.This can easily be done with an off camera flash and cord plus a macro lens or extension tube."

~taken of Digital Camera.Imaging.Media magazine Issue 38

i just had to try it myself.
took me an hour to get it done.here's my sony shot.













and here was the setup....

politician portraiture

wazaaaaaaaaaa
i was at this booklaunch shooting a job where i was fortunate to meet Tok Guru ..
he needs no introduction
i've always wanted to shoot a famous politician..



well since tak dapat shoot kat studio i'll have to settle for these shots first lah..
till then..more stories coming up..stay tune

trina

wazaaaaaaaaaa
the shot u see above was taken
by my youngest sister in law eryse
at her 1st studio shoot at mudio some time ago
and i have to say she did well for her first time!
but this particular picture above really caught my attention
its not just the shot
its the talent herself

she is a friend of eryse
n i was really keen on doing a personal session with her
her name is Trina
she is by far the youngest talent
i've shot in my studio
of course the youngest would have been
aqeel the adorabe n bubbly baby boy
but he is just a baby so that doesnt count...ha!
by the way.. dont ask how old is trina either:P

trina has so much potential
and as it turns out the shoot went really well
with the assistance of my stylist shaq.
nearly all of the shots turned out well n
both shaq n i were pleased with the outcome of it
although we could have done better
with a little bit more makeup n hair but heck
the styling for this shoot covered that all up...
problem is no!



this was the first outfit shaq chose
it was actually the last thing she brought out of her bag
i was pleased with the colour scheme n thot this would work
trina made it possible with her at ease while posing for me camera


this next outfit was my idea of dressing her up a little like a boy
i think it turned out to be more like a misbehaved schoolgirl instead hahahaha...
anyways i loved it n it worked for me..


lastly we got her in a summer dress..
this was more of a tighter crop and
candid moment of her being her normal self.
kudos to my talent miss trina
i think she has great potential in the modelling world
a big thanks goes to ishak n trina again...

herobears visit

hosted by aunty ju n uncle reza..

groupbase caterers were deployed to cater for this event
thus making the food nothing less than yummy...

liza+aboy

ayu+reza

yasmin a.k.a. dot

eryse a.k.a. smira

esti a.k.a stok
