Hello..can you believe it’s almost June!!!? \ud83d\ude42<\/em><\/p>\n

I spent the weekend with shooting a lovely family last Saturday and visited my bestfriend <\/a>who just came back to Singapore with their ever cute lil boy (scheduling a portrait session with him soon!<\/em>) while Sunday was spent on our usual grocery time, laundry and lazyin’ on the bed with our precious Pixie<\/a>. Something else happened too. I did bake my very first cake – chocolate cake<\/em> — but NO! to ask me to post a photo of it will be crime – the world need not see how un-cake it looks like but luckily it tasted worth to accompany my afternoon peppermint tea.\u00a0Thank God for ready mix, hah! Thank you Betty Crocker<\/a>! <\/em>but hey,\u00a0I took a great effort (literally sweat!<\/em>) in mixing the eggs, butter and water! I even experimented on my very own ganache<\/em>! when i say the word ‘ganache<\/em>‘, i feel like a trying-hard<\/del>\u00a0pastry chef already! so i think I deserve a little credit. Husband , though wouldn’t admit, enjoyed it so that’s enough for me.<\/p>\n

Moving on.<\/p>\n

When I attended\u00a0Jasmine Star’s VIP Session at the World Photo Conference<\/a>\u00a0last month, she encouraged us to choose 3 words that best described or how we envisioned our style of shooting. Her own 3 words were:\u00a0fun, fresh and editorial<\/em>. As soon as you visit her website<\/a>, you know exactly what she’s talking about.<\/p>\n

So I had scrambled a few words on my head and decided what my 3 words were.<\/p>\n

spirited, inspiring and poetic.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Those 3 words I shall thrive for and aspire to learn every chance I get. or die trying.<\/p>\n

I will officially mark my 3rd year in photography this coming November and for that\u00a0I am eternally grateful that I am able to continue doing what I love doing – documenting life and love stories. And more than anything, like motherhood<\/em><\/a>, the journey has been really worthwhile.<\/p>\n
