Sandy's Maternity Photoshoot in Royal Pita Maha Ubud

I was very happy to hear news from Fadli that his wife Shandy was expecting and especially knowing that she was expecting twin! In November 2016 I took their prewedding photoshoots in Turkey, and I captured their wedding moments at Segara Village Sanur and now their maternity/babymoon photo shoot at Royal Pita Maha Ubud.

Early morning I hit a full throttle leaving from Karangasem to Ubud, considering the roads were quiet cause it was during the pandemic, and when I got to the hotel, it was also quiet, could not see too many guests around. I'd always loved taking photos at this hotel, it had cool vibe and peaceful, I think it was one of the best hotels in Bali. A great choice for babymoon, away from the hustle bustle of the world.

Time flies when you're enjoying taking photos! With just a blink of an eye you find the sun is high. After the photoshoot we decided to stop at Taman Dedari restaurant, which was still a part of the hotel area and it was pretty crowded with customers, one of the reasons was probably because it was a viral spot on social medias. I nodded right away when they took me for lunch at Birds Nest, a Thai restaurant not far from the hotel. We had lots of catching up to do since we didn't see each other for a long time we talked about anything everything until afternoon. We really did enjoy ourselves.

This was about their first maternity photo session, the second one would be posted separately. Hope you enjoy them!

Valery's Maternity Session in Nadi Nature Resort Tabanan

Nestled amidst lush greenery and the gentle embrace of nature, Nadi Nature Resort provided the perfect backdrop for Valery’s maternity photoshoot. This serene oasis in Bali offered more than just stunning scenery, it embodied tranquility and a connection to the earth, making it ideal for celebrating the beauty of impending motherhood. Nadi Nature Resort was the perfect location Valery had envisioned for her session. She had always dreamed of a forest inspired concept, and this venue brought that vision to life in the most breathtaking way. From the first click of the camera, Valery’s radiant joy was undeniable. The gentle rustle of leaves and the soothing sounds of nature complemented the session, allowing Valery to relax and fully immerse herself in the moment. Her connection with her unborn child was palpable, and it was an honor to document such an intimate and transformative chapter in her life. As a photographer, moments like these remind me of the magic in storytelling through im...

Serunya Sesi Foto Keluarga Liburan di Intercontinental Jimbaran Bali

Pada tahun yang lalu saya memotret Flora saat dia hamil besar di Condrad Bali bersama sang suami, silakan lihat foto hamilnya disini . Kini mereka liburan lagi ke Bali, terbang dari Singapura setelah anak mereka lahir, sesi foto sore yang sangat seru dan tak terlupakan di Intercontinental Bali. Semuanya serba pertama untuk Lion, pertama terbang keluar negeri, pertama kali menginjak rumput, pertama kalinya ke pantai dan bermain air laut dan pasir. Sepanjang sesi foto tak henti-hentinya dia tersenyum, tertawa dan memperlihatkan kesenangan terutama saat bermain dengan pasir dan air laut. Sungguh sangat menyenangkan mengabadikan saat-saat indah keluarga kecil ini. Wajah-wajah bahagia terpancar mengalahkan cantiknya cahaya senja kala itu, seolah tak ada lagi manusia lain yang lebih bahagia dari mereka, Flora dan Patrick terlihat sangat menikmati saat-saat yang luar biasa memesona ini. Anak memang adalah salah satu karunia terindah yang Tuhan berikan kepada manusia.

Capturing Precious Memories: Personal Family Trip Photography in Hong Kong

It has always been a joy to photograph Fadli, Sandy, and their twins! Once again, I had the honor of being their personal photographer, capturing their family vacation, this time, a nostalgic journey back to Hong Kong. This trip was especially meaningful for Fadli and Sandy as it marked a nostalgic return to the city where they tied the knot. Despite a rocky start with a typhoon disrupting the first three days, their spirits remained high, and we made the most of every moment. On the fourth day, the weather cleared, and we headed to Cotton Tree Drive Marriage Registry. This was a special location for the couple, as it was where they said "I do." Recreating their wedding photos was not only a fun throwback but also a beautiful way to celebrate their journey as a family. The highlight for their kids was visiting Disneyland and Legoland. Their joy and love radiated in every frame, reminding us how precious it is to revisit meaningful milestones. Although the typhoon limited ou...
