Selvi & Saravana's Hindu Temple Wedding

Sunday, December 20th, 2009

I photographed Selvi & Saravana Kumar’s wedding in Sri Thandayuthapani Temple, Jalan Ipoh, Sentul, KL on 28 November 2009. Here are some sneak preview photographs of their traditional Hindu wedding ceremony. The wedding was held at the Temple Chettiyar Hall located on the temple grounds.

It was a beautiful and traditional wedding ceremony which lasted about 2 hours followed by lunch served at the temple hall.

Selvi & Saravana – Thank you for being a lovely couple, it was great photographing your wedding. Hope you both had a lovely honeymoon in Bali too!

Roshini’s 1st Birthday Party Celebration

Wednesday, December 16th, 2009

Those who have been following my blog, you will remember Baby Roshini from her outdoor portraiture shoot. She celebrated her 1st birthday party at her home in Bukit Tinggi, Klang on 28th November 2009.

Roshini’s parents Vasanthy and Aravinthan had put so much effort into organising this beautiful party and it turned out to be really awesome! The theme for the evening was fancy dressed, so the guests came dressed in costumes such as pirates, angels, Aladin look alike etc.

Kiddies were given goodie bags while the adults were handed beautiful halo flower headpiece to wear throughout the night. The food from The Big Rajah’s was simply delish and the birthday cake ordered from Cecelia Pauline (CSS Cake Creation) was worth every bite!

The guests were kept entertained with music, magic performance as well as games all night long. I hope you enjoy these sneak preview images, more will be update on my website soon. So stay tuned!

Indra's Nalangu Ceremony on the eve of her wedding

Sunday, December 13th, 2009

Here are some images of my good friend, Indra’s Nalangu Ceremony which I photographed on 26th November 2009.  Traditionally the Nalangu ceremony (wedding rituals) are performed before the actual wedding day by the bride to be’s mother, aunts etc as a symbol of how much she is loved.

Indra’s Nalangu ceremony lasted for a period of 5 days but due to my hectic schedule I only managed to attend her final ceremony on the eve of the wedding and photograph it for her.  Nevertheless I hope all of you enjoy viewing these sneak preview photos!

Indra & Prahalad – Wish you both only the best as married couples and good luck in settling down in Sydney, Australia after the wedding :O)

Food Photography

I love food! One of my favourite subjects to photograph is food and beverages for restaurants either during an event or for their menu spread!

I recently submitted an article with photographs for the December Issue of KLue Magazine, featuring 5 best locations to eat in Port Klang. I’d like to share some of these shots with you here. If you would like to read the article, please do grab the December issue of KLue which should be hitting the news stands anytime now.

Baby Shashini’s Family Portrait Session

Monday, December 7th, 2009

I had such a wonderful time photographing Baby Shashini and her parents, Vijay & Lalitha during their family outdoor portrait session at the Kota Permai Golf & Country Club in Kota Kemuning, Shah Alam recently. All the photos turned out amazing as Shashini is such a poser!

Hence, you can imagine….what a difficult task it was for me to chose these teaser shots for the blog.  Shashini will be celebrating her 1st year old birthday party in January and I can’t wait to photograph it!

I hope you enjoy viewing these shots as much as I had fun shooting them. Please feel free to leave your comments!

A short holiday to Malacca with my galfriends

Thursday, December 3rd, 2009

I love to travel, be it to local destinations or foreign countries, it somehow cheers me up and gives me fresh ideas for my photography. Recently I headed to Malacca (the historical state) for a short break with some of my girlfriends – Farina, Suganthi & Jayanthi. We had such a beautiful time there from visiting tourist attractions such as Jonker Street to visiting the Portuguese Settlement.

We also had a ball of a time eating our way..from the ever famous chicken rice ball, Portuguese baked fish to trying out sweet desserts such as nyonya kuihs (cakes) and chendol made from gula Malacca (palm sugar).

Thanks for the lovely time gals! We should do this more often!

Note :
Malacca is such a beautiful place with such amazing locations for pre-wedding and portraits. If you want to have your photographs taken here, please drop me an email as I’m always looking for an excuse to head back to Malacca!
