Casual event photography by Mochi

Happy long weekend peeps.

I'm getting a little tardy in upkeeping my blog... *oh no no no..*.

Was busy reading up on all the photo hosting sites to see which calls out to my needs and pocket.

The winner goes to Smugmug and I paid $60 for their Pro package to host my pictures and was busy playing around with it. After a long struggle, with inputs from various tomodachis, I've decided to keep the URL to azukimochi.

This name somehow has stuck with me over the years and is so close to my heart. It didn't seem possible for me to experiment with other names anymore.

http://www.azukimochi.smugmug.com/  it shall be! Come drop by for updates on my portfolio.. gimme your comments!

I'm into Casual (Event) Photography and trying to build up my portfolio in that.Though I've received comments from friends that I do have some flair in photography and should consider going into maybe wedding photography etc, I've never really seriously considered it. Reason being I love photography as a hobby, my way to destress and relax. I enjoy editing pictures too and it's super therapeutic for me, minus the finger and wrist aches from overclicking in PS.

I didn't want the profit making and rushing for deadlines part to kill my passion for photography. If you know me...I'm the epitome of casual-ness...if there's such a word. Yea, so I've been thinking how the ideal situation should be. To be adequately compensated for my efforts but yet be able to find my preferred niche and have fun in the process.

I have to be very honest and say that I function best in outdoors.. in the company of the children, sun, sand, sea, greenery, flowers.... nature! So you may infer that I'm not allergic to heat and physical activities...eg. chasing kids to get perfect shots which would form precious gems down your memory lane.

So if you do know anyone who just wants to be part of the whole event.... without worrying where the camera is or avoid having to dash around trying to capture the candid moments while trying to ensure food is ready for guests... can contact me!

Close friends referrals and contacts preferred at the moment.

Rates are not applicable at the moment as my focus would be just to build up my portfolio. Selamat Hari Raya!

bosco version of 天若有情


Sometimes I really don't understand why I'm so hooked onto HK dramas. More so for this one. I can only find one word to describe the ending... 慘. or maybe two... 超慘.

I spend hours during my weekend to only end sunday sobbing and crying my eyes out when bosco died....yes, after 20 episodes of my precious youth.

Not to mention my swollen, dehydrated eyes as a result of the tragic end to Bosco as 許sir.

The playing of 月亮代表我的心 in the background at the tragic scene made his passing even more epic as he fell helplessly from his bike. urgh. yes. wearing the blue helmet Hailey bought him. They hardly started their relationship and just as it was timely to begin.... dam. it was the end. 慘

Ya... monday tomorrow. Wake up mochi.
