We received a few emails, facebook messages and friends calling us up if we were able to do baby portraits. We never had a paid assignment for any baby photography (so far as of now) and hence I do not have any examples to show and of course, other than a a few studio sessions. So our 22-month old son became our guinea pig… just a test we did at our home studio with dark background. We targeted the shots to have eye contact, the subject looking at his most fun, cute, adorable self without much posing as kids will be kids and with Armand just understanding quite a bit of instructions, we achieved to have the shots we wanted.
A half body portrait of him smiling at the camera… check!

SOme shots of him sitting down and we asked to cover his bird-bird… check!

I really do feel like doing this in public. Go up to someone… any stranger… and ask them if they would like to has water splashez on faces!!! and see what you get just before the water reaches their face. Dilla’s makeover was ruined that night thanks Lis who gladly splash em water from her palm. The initial intention was to use the whole pail but I don’t want to clean the mess so we did a decent, small scale one. Imagine……. if it was a bucket of paint! Onto strangers…. ahah!
Badd… from coolness to… this… :P Lis, your hand is in the frame!!!

You know I’m Badd… I’m Badd… you know it! Heee heeeeee!!
Badd came over amidst Dilla’s makeover sessions and I decided to have a go at some shots with Badd. This was really an impromptu thing and it was way coming to midnight so all of us were like hmmmm… For the info, Badd never posed for any shoot in front of a camera other than the say cheeeeeze kinds and he was really, really nervous. Well, wrong answer, dude! The more nervous you are, the more I like it and the nocturnal side of me wants him to look none like himself. We wanted to make him strip to his boxers but he only agreed to take off his tee and just leave his singlet on… with jeans at the bottom.

I think I am going to repeat in my previous post here… It was a portfolio for a makeup artist who only wants to be published as Mimi (hmmm… definitely not me… me) As we don’t do TFCD unless its a sponsorship by us or for a good cause, we gave Mimi very very special rates of only $200 for the 1.5hr session with a model we provided… introducing Dilla, who is available at a very short notice. If you like Dilla, and the makeup done by the make-up artist, give them a Hell Yeah! Well, by the way this is the Hijab or more accurately scarfed version which is not so appropriate to mix the pictures with the other ones.
Black & Whites
How eyes could give a totally different mood to a photograph

Right after the outdoor session for Nurul and son, Haziq, we had some McDonald’s for dinner before commencing for the indoor session at our home studio.

Nurul is expecting her second child, her first daughter by this coming October! Woo hoo! Amir was supposed to come and pose with her but he bailed out because I mentioned in our family blog I wanted to make them pose in the nude… damn! Anyway, this was taken in our home studio and Nurul decided to have both outdoors and indoor for this time round. Since Amir didn’t turn up because he had “soccer training“, Nurul brought along Haziq, their son, as the substitute. She is 6 months now and will be putting up the pics soon… Enjoy the beauty of motherhood in mono…
