Zoe First Birthday !

Another chance to shoot a baby birthday party, this time it's Zoe's first birthday.

I remember meeting Zoe's family at Marco's first month celebration quite a few months back and casually took some shots of Zoe back then. When Zoe's mom, Monica contacted me recently if I could shoot for Zoe's first birthday party, I am really glad that they still remember me and my photography service.

Shooting baby required quite a different set of techniques than wedding as we cannot tell the baby to poise for us. You just need lots of patience and baby need their beauty sleep to look good and happy. I am glad I have learned and practice this skill after being a father :)

Raghav's First Birthday Party

Have not been updating my blog for sometime not because of the lack of photos but on the contrary I was really busy with lots of shooting and post editing late into the night. I am not complaining too much if the result can put a smile on my client's face :)
One of the events that I have shot recently is the one year old birthday celebration of little Raghav. Really excited about the assignment as I don't get to shoot indian family often and in fact this is the first time that I gotten the chance. I really like the rich vibrant colours of the traditional Indian clothing and I think it will look especially good for photography. It gave me the opportunity to understand a little more of the Indian culture too.

The event was held over 2 venues and one of location was at a high end pub style restaurant. The lighting was on the dim side and that's means a challenge to the camera autofocus system. I have them in print now and more than please with end result.
Raghav is like a little handsome prince from Bollywood movie ... and here's my proof:
