Charge Up Conference '10

This definitely had to be one of the best conference, ever! I attended the photography stream which had awesome speakers; Jenny Sun, Louis Pang, Grace Tan and etc with Ruby, Leon and Daryl.

Day one and two was filled with workshops by them, very much helpful and practical. And it's such a lovely combo and package of getting Louis Pang & Jenny Sun! Tsk tsk, I still find it hard to believe I've met and listened and talked to them in REAL life after following their blogs for quite a while. Yeay! Thank you, God! :)

For the third day, we were divided into eight different groups, each with a goal to help Christian NGOs & ministries. What we had to do was basically, capture moments and compile them into a montage to be used by the NGOs and ministries as a promo video to get more volunteers. For my group, we were assigned to help the Street Ministry. Our venue was the Klang Bus Station opposite the Pasar Seni station and then later on to Jalan Sultan where they have their medical team, food sharing program and also a mini sharing session. It was very sad to see the amount of poor people, troubled, heart broken and at a very low point in their lives. It's definitely good to know there are a group of people out there helping them out, at least they know they're not alone and there's is hope in this world.

There are loads more photos that we took, but they actually don't like their photos being published on the internet etc. They are probably worried it might bring their family down, or even feel too ashamed to face the world ever again. I remember one gangster-looking lady (hehe, she scared me, no kidding yo!) pulling me and asking me whether the pictures are going on tv / the newspaper? So yeah, I guess a few would do yeah.

Here you go, two group shots. The photography stream and then the WHOLE Charge Up Conference Family '10! (photo credits : Grace Tan)

And lastly, a huge hug and big thank you to the task force team, especially Choon Ean for organizing such an amazing conference. Food was good, people were lovely, speakers were wonderful, pictures were amazing. Till the next Charge Up 2011!

Family of Five

Meet them five, the daddy, the mummy, the koko, the cheche and titi :) a very loving and warm family, was definitely fun shooting them. the weather was oh so gloomy with only grey clouds in sight, thankfully, the sun came up not long after :) a lovely end to the year. enjoy some of the photos! wishing everyone a blessed happy new year :D

as soon as the sun came up, the kids headed straight to the playground. wushh, this surely drained my energy alright. but, it did give me a good exercise! haha

and then, it was so hot! so everybody had a quick dip to cool down ;)

Sharing is caring

we all finally got to see her in action using full use of her muscles and biceps to cam whore ;)

Anna-rina had a sharing session with us ten yesterday at Maria's. Can't thank her enough for her willingness to have this session and tell us more bout photography, her experiences and knowledge. It was nice meeting her in person after following her on twitter and her blog. The other photo enthusiasts were all really cool as well, from students to part time photographers to full time ones too! Was a great session altogether. yay!
