Some facts you might now know about me..
- I am a city girl, was born and raised in Kuala Lumpur, I cannot imagine how would it be if I live at some other part of the world. (Maybe this statement will change if I have a chance to a different experience)
- I love to talk and laugh and listen to love stories and history of people life. I am a keen observer and ask lots of questions. That is one of the reason I live to photograph a portraits
- I am a self-taught photographer before I joined a program of Executive Diploma in Creative Photography and Digital Imaging awarded by UTM. I believe my learning process is continuous as I am still learning through short photography courses & workshops by professionals, magazines, online tutorials and by asking as many questions as possible to other experienced photographers.
- When I was in school, I strongly wanted to read law, instead, I graduated with a Degree in Accounting (in my final semester I told my father straight to his face that I do not want to be an accountant) and then worked as an external auditor with one of the local audit firm before get myself experienced the posh life of oil & gas environment. My friends refer me as a ‘undone accountant’. After years of love-hate relationship with the corporate life, I made a decision to call it off and dedicate my life now for the passion in photography.
- When I have room for ‘me’ time, I will try to read the books I bought (I have lots of them still unwrap) and to read blogs that inspiring. I love fashion too! (In love with all sorts of boots)
- Besides human, I love to photograph food! Not to mention that I love to eat, but photographing food some kind letting me be in a different world! Food therapy, that is!
- Mom once suggesting me to consider teaching as a profession, I instantly went wild! A big NO for me! But now, I love teaching my believes in photography (call me up for portraiture class!)
- I love yoga, but the time constrain and not sure whom should I learn it from, (after I am no more a member of the gym that my ex-oil & gas company paid for it) I wish to pick it up soonest from where I left.

Hello Shuhada.
For #4: I am a strong believer of do what you love and love what you’re doing. Tho it may take quite some times to discover or find out what it is that one would really love to do. Been there, done that… And still try to figure it out by the way. Ahem…
Doing something you’re good at + make a living out of it = You’ll be happier + content.
Oh that PCK boots look super cool lah!
thank you Fara! well said. (i wish to have a pink color boots like that!)
