Psst!

Guess what? I’ve moved!

From today onwards, I’ll be blogging from www.anna-rina.com, my new blogsite.

Why the move? I reckon it’ll be more convenient for my clients and myself to have everything under one roof instead of having to go back and forth between the website and blog.

And yes, this move was inspired by one of my wedding photography idols, Jessica Claire.

Thanks again for checking out my blog and hope you’ll swing by regularly at the new one as well. Have an awesome week ahead!

Deviana & Herman

Filed under: Weddings — Anna-Rina @ 4:28 pm

I’ve known Deviana for yonks. She’s my sister’s childhood friend and when she got married recently, I was honoured to be part of her and Herman’s big day :)

Their solemnisation and lunch reception was held at home with family and close friends attending the celebrations. There was plenty of laughter going around as fun was to be had with karaoke sessions by Devi’s grandma and dance performances by Devi’s sister and her friends.

Devi and Herman, here’s wishing you a blessed life together and yes, I’ll be going back to KK month end so I’ll give you a buzz then :D In the meantime, here are a few of my favourite shots from the day.

See you soon!

The ‘hantaran’ (gifts) trays were all decorated by Devi. She does this on a part-time basis and her work is beautiful! If you’re interested in getting someone to decorate your gift trays for you, drop Devi an email.

I had the shock of my life when the confetti popped during the cake cutting :p I think Herman and Devi were caught by surprise too! Hehe…

Devi’s grandma is super sporting! She was dancing and singing away throughout the reception. Awesome!

Yes this shot of Herman and Devi has been shown in a previous post. But this is a slightly different, muted edit :)

Priscilla & Raymond

Filed under: Couples — Anna-Rina @ 1:05 pm

Thanks to a referral from Vera & Philip (who was the first couple to fly me to KK to shoot their wedding even when I wasn’t a full time photographer yet! I’ll always be grateful to them for trusting a noob then ;D), Priscilla recently contacted me to shoot some portraits for her and her fiance Raymond at the Maple.

We corresponded via email for a couple of days before the shoot and in one of her emails she said, “The only problem is probably we are both are kinda not photogenic people so we need help on that score indeed hehehe but we surely will try our best to follow what you ask us to try :)”

Cilla, all I have to say to that now that I’ve met you two is, “Liaaaarrrrrr!!”. Heheheh…

I don’t know whether or not I told you both of you this (maybe I didn’t, since it’s so corny), but to me, you two ARE photogenic. I honestly don’t think its how you look which matters at the end of the day, but how you connect with each other.

Throughout our session, you and Raymond  were unabashedly loving to each other, you gave each other real kisses (instead of light pecks!heehehe) and the genuine smiles and laughters warmed my heart and made me feel blessed to have captured real emotions instead of only posed shots.

Cilla and Raymond, it was a pleasure to meet you two, congratulations again on your upcoming nuptials and have fun with the preparations for the wedding :)

Here are some of my favourite shots from the day. Enjoy!
