Elaine & Harry

If I were to shoot a first dance scene for a movie, I would probably couldn’t be happier with the pictures I got from Elaine & Harry first dance. But.. this is not a movie. No direction, let alone a re-take. Elaine and Harry tied the knot in Bali about a month prior to this…

Nadia & Rama

I was pretty excited to shoot Nadia & Rama’s wedding since I haven’t shot many traditional wedding lately. There are so many things that intrigue me from a wedding; the music, the ceremony, and the culture. But my main attention is always on the bride and the groom. I love watching the chemistry of two…

Melissa & Norman

Just last Sunday, I bumped into Melissa and Norman after I had lunch at Pantai Indah Kapuk. That’s quite bizzare, since that was my first ever lunch at PIK and neither of us live near PIK. After we said goodbye, I realized that I haven’t shared their wedding pictures all this time. Melissa and Norman…

The moments of leaving the house 6.00 a.m in the morning, the anxiety of waiting, the feeling of hearing our baby first cried, the smile of my wife when she’s holding tight our…

Mahligai (August 2012)

These photos are made for Bella Donna’s Mahligai fashion spread, August 2012 edition. I think Mahligai team has developed a great concept, one which is intriguing for me to execute. We shot the series at dia.lo.gue Kemang, who has got a fantastic interior look. It was a smooth sailing shoot so the whole thing perhaps…

One night at Ubud

For the last few years, Ubud has been a special place for me. It’s the perfect place to be with the loved one. A place for a long walk, a place to eat and relax, a perfect place just to do about everything. With all those nice memories I had, it’s just so difficult to…
