KedaiGambarKami-Aivee Emart Best Photo Contest

>> Thursday, March 18, 2010


This picture was definitely not taken by any professional (i.e. my sister, Farah) and only using my Sony Ericson K810i. Also, thanks to this competition, I have just realized how very few pictures we have taken as an entire family. Syakirah was about 5 months old here. She is going to turn 3 years old in a couple of months. Yes, that is how long it is since Baybe and me joined the kids in the photo frame together, instead of snapping the photos away ourselves. Maybe I should arrange for a photo shoot for the four of us? *cough*hint*hint*cough*

We took this picture on the first day of Hari Raya Aidilfitri at my Tuk Ngah's house in Taman Tun Dr Ismail. It was our first Hari Raya as a threesome, and even though Syakirah was not wearing a baju kurung, hey, at least we all wore uniform red! I think that was the first time I felt how real it was... married, motherhood, all that. Due to the nature of our work, we seldom get to spend normal holidays together as a family. To be able to wake up that morning, prepare ketupat and rendang for Baybe's breakfast, kiss his hand and ask for forgiveness... It all felt so... special.

Intermission. Thank you, Baybe, for the past almost-5 years of our life together and for our beautiful children. Insya-Allah, we will try to make this work and last for the rest of our lives together... and beyond.

Author's Note: Notice how thin I looked? Ahh, those were the days. Oh, and that finger ala the movie Shutter belongs to  my other sister, Adriana. She does that a lot, trust me.

Anyways, this here is in conjunction with a competition hosted by KedaiGambarKami and Aivee Emart. The Grand Prize is a 1 hour outdoor photo shoot with KedaiGambarKami, how awesome is? The Infantino Jittery Jungle Fox from AiVee Emart for the 1st prize is cool too. I'd like for Asyraf to have it, since it's right for his developmental age, but I'm sure Syakirah will want to "share" it too.

 KedaiGambarKami is the "baby" of the lovely Mr. and Mrs. Catlina (hehehe, jangan marah), borne out of their love for photography. Started out as a hobby, they eventually thought, why not make some money out of it as well? Or at least, I think that was somewhere along their train of thought ^___^

They offer services such a photo books, web headers, banners, and button designs at a very affordable price (RM 10++ for blog logo/badge). Check out some sample of their work. You might see something you like.

The second sponsor, Aivee Emart sells some of the cutest baby toys I've seen in a while. Erm, yes, they sell other things too, but this was just too adorable. The price is also lower than the ones selling at retail stores, so it's definitely a bargain.

Thank you for taking the time to view this not-so-flattering image of me and reading the silly but sentimental reason I chose it. Hopefully, it will bring our family luck, eh?
