VIP & Pengantin
Menteri kewangan kedua menepung tawar kedua mempelai
A very grand ballroom indeed
| Quote: | Shafril @ jinie is shahrul's younger brother. My junior at school. Shasha pulak rumahnya belakang rumah Fariz @ My partner in EF. Very nice couple. Walaupun dah ada OP (Udey from CS), I asked permission from them to cover this wedding.
Persiapan dijalankan dirumah Shasha di Section 7 Shah Alam. Then bersanding di Dewan Bankuet MBSA. 27 Januari 2008.
What I love about shooting not as OP is that i can concentrate on getting experimental pics. As OP, sometimes you are against the time to get the gambar wajib.
More on the Sheraton & Concorde functions later. Full sets here ---> efgallery |

The story of "Our Cameron Escapade"
|
|
Wajib tengok strawberry di Cameron...hehehe
Kanak-kanak ribena di enchantedCameron
Boh Cafe di Ladang Teh Boh
Cendawan, sayur, pisang, keledek goreng memang best!
Aiskrim strawberry sangat tempting....seringgit satu ni!
View from our hotel room
Jalan Kea Farm jadi jalan afam
| Quote: | Last weekend the x-CS224 gang went for a nice 2 day mini holiday to Cameron Highlands. Evry year we went to different destination starting from 2004 (Taiping), 2005 (Kuala Terengganu & Pulau Kapas), 2006 (skipped due to busyness), 2007 (Penang & Langkawi). The newlyweds TIno & mie is unable to attend due to work commitment (tak dapat cuti...dah habis guna masa kahwin+honeymoon). So yang tinggal Fahmi, Kham, Amru & Ayu (bukan gf saya ok!) hahahaha 
The story starts with Fahmi receiving discount coupon from Bank Islam for Hotel Equatorial Cameron HIghlands. We booked 2 rooms and kena bayar RM100 per room. Kira murah dah tu. Cuma catchnya kena guna Sunday till Khamis. Pandai depa ni....
Pagi Ahad Kham & Fahmi pick up Amru and Ayu at Rawang Komuter station. Then gerak ke Cameron guna Jalan Simpang Pulai. Dalam 12.30 dah sampai....kejap aje. Traffic pun almost takde. We all terus pergi ke Ladang Teh Boh. Minum2 teh sambil lepak-lepak. Tempat yang sesuai untuk honeymoon. Then terus check in hotel. Petangnya gi jalan-jalan survey barang (sayur, strawberry, teh etc). Gi turun ke Tanah Rata. Shopping kat pasar malam dan makan malam. Balik ke hotel we all main foosball dan pool. Yang ni memang best..tapi semuanya fahmi yang menang...heheh...aku ni tangan bangku..kaki pun bangku jugak.
Kat hotel ni ada disewakan board games. Dengan persetujuan semua kitaorg sewa lah set carrom. RM15 je untuk semalam. So malam tu sampai merah-merah jari menjentik buah carrom tu. Malam memang sejuk...duduk bawah selimut rasa macam taknak bangun je. Tapi subuh kena bangun jugak....terus je kitaorg turun untuk menikmati pemandangan sunrise. Cantik wooo. Lagi best dari pemandangan kat Puncak Gunung Brinchang. Apa lagi....shoot aje...sekali dengan bunga-bunga dan serangga yg lawa-lawa.
Balik hotel gi mandi swimming pool pulak. Sejuk abis....dalam air suam je...naik atas menyesal....siap mintak fahmi ambilkan gambar2 ala-ala mangga...heheh...yang ni takleh letak sini....sensitip taw!
Lepas mandi kemas semua pergi ke Jalan Kea Farm (dekat je) untuk shopping. Sini lah yang paling murah kalau nak beli sayur/strawberry/teh. Then gerakj ke Cactus Valley kat Brinchang. Lepas lunch je terus gerak balik. Kali ni guna jalan Tapah yang melingkar seperti ular kena palu. SAmpai ke stesyen Rawang dalam kul 5 petang. Naik komuter dan sampai Shah Alam dalam 7.30.....
Sekian laporan untuk trip ini. Hopefully next time akan ke pulau la pulak. Redang anyone?

The story of "My girfriends"
|
 |
|
My tools of the trade
|
|
|
| Quote: | I always refers to my cameras as my girlfriend. They're reliable and they don't nag. At first they cost me a bomb (just like wang hantaran) but in time the return-on-investment is much more than what i initially invested.
My lovely D50 is Amelie. Bought in March 2006. Next month she's gonna be 2 years old. Colour rendition of a D50 is legendary. Much better than any other Nikon cameras. Excluding the venerable D3 & D300 (oohh gonna get my hands on them sooner or later).
The D80 is named Alice (Resident evil inspired). Bought it second hand last year November. Buying her proved to be a paradigm shift in the way i shoot events. Using 2 camera bodies enabled me to focus on the event itself and not on changing lens. D80 after minor tweak (change the color mode, sharpness, saturation - in camera) can produce good quality pics just like D50. Furthermore the metering is superb. even in challenging place such as during bride's make-up.
The SB800 is Fariz's. Just bought a new one to replace my damaged Audrey. Thinking of adding another SB800 to the arsenal. Just to be safe.
The Sigma 17-70mm f2.8-4.5 macro is named Adrienne. Bought it second hand from a guy in JB in December 2006. It was 3 months old that time. The best feature would be it can produce a 1:3.3 reproduction macro image at 70mm. And the colours produced by sigma lens is quite warm. Suit perfectly with my preference. Lately some fungus were spotted inside her. Have to send her to Uncle Jason for cleaning later.
The big and long 80-200mm f2.8 was bought during Ramadhan 2007 (October). Code named Aurora. Also second hand. Got it at RM2700 (3 months old and in perfect condition). Words cannot describe how this lens improve my photography skills. From wedding to sports to potraits.
The Tokina 12-24mm f4 doesn't have a name coz it's not my lens. It's shared by me and Fariz. Thinking of buying a Sigma 10-20mm f4-5.6 HSM later (the price is soooo cheap nowadays about RM1750). But announcement from Tamron (the new 10-24mm f3.5-4.5) and Tokina (the new 11-16mm f2. is good news to me. Spoiled for choice really.
The 50mm f1.4 is Masri's. Borrowed from him at the time the picture is taken. Superb lens. Maybe I'll buy one later.
A new lens acquired last month is a second hand Nikkor 60mm f2.8 micro. More like fourth or fifth hand. Sometimes cannot autofocus but the performance is still good. Her name? forgot already hehehe
In the near future I'm gonna buy a new D300 (or maybe upgrade Amelie into a D80 first). No more problem shooting low light situation. Another SB800 is a must. I'm also contemplating buying a Nikkor VR 18-200mm f3.5-5.6 lens. A good travel lens. Eliminate the need for multiple lens during travel.
Insya Allah ada rezeki semua jadi!
Have a nice day |

The story of "Bengkel Photoshop Kukubesi"
|
|
Tuan Penjajah Kukubesi. Penjajah Fotografik
Jadi model la pulak...baju free tuh!
| Quote: | Ahad 17 Feb: Bertempat di Megan Avenue 1, Near Suria KLCC, satu bengkel telah dijalankan oleh En Kukubesi @ Fazli Latif. Beliau memang diakui sebagai salah seorang perintis editing bercorak radikal dikalangan photographer di Malaysia. Bolehlah chek it out website2 beliau di sini, sini & .
Team EnchantedFOREST turut serta dengan 3 orang photographers (Amrufm, Miss Ai & Yomie). Kami pun perlu jugak upgrade ilmu editing dari masa ke semasa. Alhamdulillah kelas berjalan lancar kerana kesemua 17 orang peserta laju menangkap ilmu yang disampaikan. Tempat pun selesa dan makan tengah hari ditanggung (Nasi kandar yang masyuuuuuk! Siap order air 2 lagi...hehehe).
Saya duduk bersebelahan en. Phizy (setiausaha Foto Seni Budaya) dan en. Nizar Nazrin (dulu sama-sama menuntut dengan en. Saiful Nang masa Crash Course Wedding Photographer (Sept 07).
Dibawah ni adalah antara hasil kerja yang dibuat masa kursus. Tapi yang tak bestnya balik je saya dah lupa steps....hahahha...kena practise lebih banyak lagi supaya lebih cemerlang dimasa akan datang.
Sekian laporan dari Amrufm, enchantedFOREST. |

The story of "Ina & Lenz || Diyana & Li"
|
|
Tempat kejadian
| Quote: | Satu majlis.
2 couple.
4 pengapit.
2 jurumekap.
1 photographer.
2 tag along photographers.
First time shoot double couple serentak. penat jugak la. Majlis dijalankan pada 6 Januari 2008. Bermula dengan sesi mekap di rumah Ina & Lenz. Kedua2 couple dimekapkan dan bersiap sebelum bergerak ke dewan di PJ. Pasangan Ina & Lenz (Berbaju Songket Purple) serta Diyana & Li (Songket Merah Hati).
Nasib baik la ada 2 orang tag alongers (sebab semua photog EF busy that day). Shanana & Farina setia menemani dan menembak sampai habis majlis.
Tahniah buat kedua2 pasangan mempelai. Korang memang sporting. Makanan memang sedap....nasib la makan lewat dapat sikit je sisa2 yang ada...hahahaha..pengajarannya makan lebih awal lain kali. Dengarnya catering dibuat oleh Pakcik pengantin lelaki. Sampai licin semuanya (sedap sangat la tu...).

The story of "Helmi & Laily - Reception Dewan Bankuet MBSA"
|

Best dapat pengantin macam ni. Suka senyum
| Quote: | Late entry. Majlis ni dijalankan pada 13 Januari yg lalu bertempat di Dewan Bankuet MBSA, Shah Alam. EFCrew yang terlibat ialah Amru & Yomie. Majlis dijalankan sangat simple dan habis mengikut jadual. Sungguh rare kerana masa pengantin masuk dewan kelihatan penuh dan tetamu tunggu hingga majlis dah nak habis baru kebanyakannya beredar. Selalunya kalau buat majlis waktu tengah hari problem akan timbul dimana orang datang dan pergi membuatkan majlis nampak kurang meriah (dewan nampak kosong).

Nasi Lemak #1

Nasi Lemak #2
|
|

Kenapa "In mourning" ada gambar nasi lemak? read through to understand.
| Quote: | On Saturday, My best friend Wafi lost his Grand uncle. Arwah Mohamad Bin Sham was 90 (As I was told) and he died of several complications due to old age. Al Fatihah. Sempat juga ke kubur dan menghadiri tahlil pada malamnya.
Balik dari kubur sempat singgah ke apartment my beloved sister Maryam Jamilah. Dekat je dari kubur Arwah tadi. Sekitar 50 meters. Besar dah pokok kat apartmen Yam. Dulu basyirah & Adil yang tanam sekarang dah nearly 2 meters high. Sebab terlalu busy dah lebih setahun tak menyinggah jenguk Yam. kalu Yam still with us she should be a lovely girl preparing for her SPM. And waiting for her first niece.
We always miss you dearest sister. Luv from your big bro.

Nasi lemak extra nasi with paru Goreng Bersambal - RM3.50
| Quote: | Another bombshell was dropped this morning. Di pagi hari Valentine tiba2 terasa nak makan nasi lemak "macam biasa punya" that means nasi tambah, more ikan bilis dan sambal serupa nasi kandar (campur2 sambal biasa, sambal ikan bilis, sambal sotong, rendang daging dan sambal ayam). Namun harganya still RM2.00. Termurah di pasaran.
Menaiki motosikal terus ke gerai Kak Ina. Namun yang menjaga anaknya. Bagi salam terus bertanya "Mak mana? Dah sihat ke?" (She was in hospital due breast cancer since late last year).
"Mak dah tak ada"
Terpaku. Terpana. Speechless. Al-Fatihah......
As a tribute to a dear nasi lemak seller who understands her customer's need for a hearty meal that doesn't burn a hole in the pocket. Here is a special entry for Kak Ina. Penjual Nasi Lemak berhati mulia. Teman berborak di pagi hari. Selalu bagi saya extra tapi tak charge apa2.
Semoga Akak dicucuri rahmat dan sentiasa berada dalam golongan orang2 yang Dirahmati Allah. Amin. |
