during the eid holidays, i managed to attend three photo sessions. one of them was a portrait of a baby turning one. her mother needed the shots for her daughter’s birthday. as i started to setup the equipment, i realised that i forgot to bring my backdrop. without it, i had to improvise.
“think and don’t panic.”

few weeks back, it was a first for me to photograph baby twins. the parents asked me to do a small session for aidan and adam. i lost the opportunity to photograph few days after they were born due to health issues. after three months, i got my chance.

i usually don’t cross the borders of digital art. i try to post-process images as natural as possible. it is time consuming because it needs to match between two or more things to get it right. however, if the location or scene is impossible to recreate then i opt for photo manipulation.

normally, weddings should be simple and sweet. capturing them being happy was inevitable. prior to the big day, the couple asked me to avoid too much sweet shots. we decided to inject some “bonnie and clyde” look and feel. this shot was taken after the couple just finished exchanging vows at the altar. while resting in their hotel room, i looked and saw this vintage decoration of the bed.
a perfect scene where east meets west.

once again, i got another corporate shoot assignment of an event company. contrary to the classy and overly-smart looking shots, a lively, light-hearted theme was given which resembled the world of advertising and event management.
