UK

My friend and I will be heading to the UK in July. We thought of bringing over our services over there - just to test the water so to speak.

We’ll be there from 15th July until 4th August; and we will be going around the UK - backpacking with our cameras.

The itinerary is not confirmed at the moment. We will need plan on the places we going to visit with the clients’ time slots - which is wide open at the moment.

What do you think - 2 photographers, 1 Country and your memories - portraiture sessions with your loved ones at an affordable investment of £200?

Head on to http://uk.hafizismail.net.

The perks of being a photographer

Guess what?

I was covering a story (with a friend cum NST writer, Sheila Sri Priya) on a spa (Beauty Retreat, at Aman Suria, Petaling Jaya) last week when out of the blue I dared myself to experience something different.

No, it was not because of the free-of-charge part. But more on the trying-something-different-in-the-new-year thing. So I did.

I had a facial. (BTW, that’s not me in the picture above :P)

Over the weekend

Outdoor Portraiture - Izwan & Ariffah

What did I do over the weekend? I went to invest on myself with Photoshop skills.

The market nowadays require us to further improve ourselves and be different; and this is what I’d always believe. Yes, equipment does help you in a certain way but the other little thing that I as a photographer cannot live without is the ability to retouch/enhance/edit (or whatever you want to call it) pictures that I took.

Woohoo - We're back online!

I am a firm believer in investing in myself. I’d always love business and the art of running a business. One little thing that a Trump or a Kiyosaki will tell you that is to always invest, learn and relearn things that matters in your business.

This is what I’m doing now.

How far will I go to get great pictures?

Ramblings 2 Comments »

Very far - if and only if my precious life is not being jeopardize by my action.

A friend (and a competitor) told me once - at my very early stage in photography - that you can photograph anything, anyone, anywhere until some authoritative figure tell you can’t. And I hold on to that statement every time I am on assignment or whenever I have my DSLR by my side.

Perhaps the question is, how far will we go to get great pictures?
