The Kluners

The Kluners and FIFOTO go way back. Way back when there were only three – Karen, Barry and their super protective white toy poodle Claudia. We first shot Karen & Barry for their pre-wedding shoot in Melaka where both David & I first found out how good these two were at posing in front of the camera. I still remember how delightfully pleased we were when both of them got into their poses even before we could direct them and within a couple of clicks, we knew it was a start of a very good day! A few months later, David & I were in Langkawi, shooting their wedding at the Westin’s private villa. It was a night to remember, especially with quite a number of them being thrown into the pool, and other voluntarily take off their shirts and jumped right in. This was so long ago that we didn’t even have a blog then!

Not long after (this was back in 2009, mind you!), I remember getting a call from Karen, asking about pregnancy portraits. We were delighted to hear about the good news and on welcoming their second child, baby Noah! (Their first child being Claudia). Karen looked amazing throughout her pregnancy…. she’s the kind of woman who takes to pregnancy really well and just look fabulous either way! Click here to view Karen’s pregnancy portraits.

When Baby Noah was born, he visited us at the studio and we immediately fell in love with his beady eyes… and his beady-eyed little monkey friend who by fate, they chanced upon it at a mall and Noah just couldn’t take his eyes off it. It was love at beady sight! Click here to see Baby Noah at 3 months! Isn’t he just the cutest little thing ever???

Three years later, Karen & Barry are expecting their 3rd baby girl, Ava and we had a blast in the studio shooting the forever sexy momma and their two kids. Three years later, Noah is still just as cute and just as attached to his little monkey!

Congrats to the Kluners on their little baby girl, Ava!

This post is long overdue. One year overdue, to be exact… After moving into our new studio (more than a year ago), we decided to try our hand at shooting cars, which was what I built the studio for. And so we did. It was pretty exciting for Nic, Jun & I as it was our first time shooting a car that was sitting right in front of us, inside the studio. A few years back, I was lucky enough to learn from an Indonesian commercial photographer who’s also a personal friend and sat in on a shoot he did for a car.

The process is painstakingly long and intricate. Lighting is key but more importantly, making sure that reflections of ourselves, our lights and equipment aren’t reflected in the shiny coat of paint. Everything had to be precise – what lights to use, where to place the lights and which angle to shoot from. It was very much a balancing act throughout the entire shoot, trying to balance those 3 factors. It took us an entire day to shoot both the photographs and the video but with good music playing in the background and with the good company of Nic & Jun, it was a memorable first for all of us, as all things “firsts” should be! Tell us what you think and if you’d like to see more cars!

We will be sharing a 2nd car post really soon so watch this space!!!

And just for fun…. we did some light painting!!!

Here’s the video !

The Westin Wedding Fair

fiona — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 16:27:20 +0000

It’s been awhile since we took part in a wedding fair and I remember how much fun it was when FIFOTO first started out and participated in 2 wedding fairs! This was awhile back, mind you! So when Kris invited us to participate in this upcoming Wedding Photography Fair organized by the Westin Hotel, we said YES!

We will be having special wedding photography & videography promotions for that day and you’ll get to enjoy some tantalizing treats! So come on by and stopover at our FIFOTO booth! See you next Sunday!!!
