Outdoor portraiture~

So, we decided to choose this photographer for our wedding.
Adzrin Taib from TRZphoto.

*psstt.. you can see samples of his work at this website.

He covered the whole ceremony, morning till late evening and the next day baru buat outdoor.

We want the outdoor session to be on a different day sebab kalau buat dalam hari yang sama, of course akan rasa penat nak mampuih. Dah la nikah pagi tu, sanding petang pastu nak gi outdoor lagi. Pastu nanti kompem ada muka tak fresh-bonyok-menat dalam gambo outdoor kan.

And another reason is that, kesian kawan-kawan yang datang dari jauh tetiba kita takde sebab gi outdoor session.

yelah kan, bukan semua boleh datang on the dot pukul 2 tu. Maybe ada yang datang pukul 3 or pukul 4 camtu. Aku penah alami benda ni. Time aku pegi kenduri sorang kawan tu dalam pukul 4 ptg tetiba dia dah takde sebab gi outdoor. Frust mek okeh. Dah la datang jauh-jauh.

And time kenduri aku aritu, still ada jugak kawan2 dari jauh yang datang pukul 5 lebih tu. Nasib baik kami buat outdoor hari lain kalau tak memang kesian la diorang tak dapat jumpa.

So, kesimpulannya, it is far better if u opt for a different day for the outdoor session. Takpelah tambah duit sikit asalkan kita puas hati kan. And kalau rasa tak berbaloi pakai baju sanding kejap je, and nak pakai balik baju yang mahal tu untuk outdoor sila la. Tak kesahnya.

ye, bila pikir-pikir balik, entry adalah sangat lintang-pukang sebab aku belum habis cerita pun tentang majlis kawin tetiba nak cerita pasal benda lain sebab tetiba teringat nak buat entry pasal my outdoor session ni sebab kalo tunggu lambat-lambat lagi, of course telah lupa.

So the next day after the wedding, around 1.30 pm, kami ke rumah Cikgu Amril for the makeup session. He's the owner of Mumtaz Bridal Gallery and Noni asked us to go there since kalo tak cukup barang bole ambik2 sajer.

I wore the black-gold dress yang patutnya nak pakai time sanding tapi tak jadi sebab... sila baca entry ni.

Actually I wrote quite a few entries about this dress and kalo ingat2 balik, upacara pemilihan baju pengantin memang sangat menyusahkan and meletihkan fikiran sebenarnya.

Banyak gile benda yang nak diambil kira okeh.
My advise is that, sila confirmkan baju sanding before pilih warna tema or baju family or anything.

Macam time aku aritu, it is totally a disaster since aku dah pilih warna tema and baju family before pilih baju sanding.

gile ah ding dong.

oke, I'll tell u more in the next entry.
Now back to the main topic.

Around 3 something kami siap mekap and terus la gi JB for the outdoor session. The actual location is at Istana Garden, dekat ngan Jotic tu.

Pastu bole lupa pulak nak isi minyak before gi mekap tu so terpaksa singgah petrol pump. Gile glemer okeh hubby kuar gi isi minyak ngan bersamping bagai.

haha.

Around 4.30 pm kami pun sampai together with the OP.

Menat okeh nak jalan kaki dari tempat parking ke istana lama tu. Dah la kena angkat baju yang panjang melerets.

Heel tu pun rasa macam nak tanggalkan je.

Tapi bila dah sampai sana, macam fuh~ this is what we want.. what we've always dreamt for it to be...

Sangat puas hatilah dengan pemandangan dia yang cantik.

After that session, Adzrin tanya nak naik atas tak.
Aku of cos la nak sebab dah alang-alang kan. Bila lagi nak datang sini kalau bukan untuk wedding shoot kan.

Tapi tak terpikir la pulak yang dia cakap naik atas tu memang betul2 atas bukit. Satu keje la pulak kami nak mendaki bukit tinggi tu dengan makai heel bagai.
Dengan kain aku yang meleret panjang lagi.

ahaks.

Tapi ai tak kesah pon.

Akhirnya sampai ke second location.

And, mashallah... the scenery is totally beautiful up there.
Rasa macam pendakian yang sangat2 berbaloi sebab the place is soo cantik and tenang.

There's a pond, kolam ke tasik ntah.
And there's a bangku panjang.
And there's no one there.

And kat atas tu ada pagola.
'aa pagola kot nama dia.

Tapi time kami naik atas tu dah petang so ramai yang tengah joging so macam segan la jugak kan.

Then after this session, Adzrin ajak kami ke jeti to see the sunset and to take another shoot.

And, oh my...

the soft silky wind...
and the scene is soo breathtaking.

I can sit hours staring at the sunset.

Dalam pukul 7 lebih tu kami pun pulang...

We came all the way from Ptn and believe me, this is a journey worth taking ^_^



By the way, I'm still on MC today.
Dah keluar wad pun.
I'll tell u the story in my next entry.
'yer, next entry lagi ;p

but... sangat terharu okeh dengan kawan-kawan blogku yang sangat prihatin ineh. it is so touching that I've got sooo many frens here. hummm... seriesly thanks... T_T

oh my~

Dari pagi bawak ke petang, sehari suntuk ke sana ke mari.

MRI suda.
Scan suda.
Ultrasound pun suda.
Blood and urine test pun suda.
'gile sakit okeh dia cucuk jarum nak amik darah pastu cucuk lagi nak masukkan antibiotik.

And terpaksa puasa sebab petang nanti dia nak cek usus.

haih.

and oh ya. i am warded.
Dari semalam membawak ke hari ini and maybe tomorrow baru discharge.

Maka telah bersiaran lansung seorang diri dari Johor Specialist ineh.

Sekian.

I hate the cake!

ok, that sounds too harsh.
but I do hate it!
'remember this entry? haha.

I soo want it to be like this :




But what I got is something like this :



oh ye, maleh nak amik gambo kek dari atas so takde gambo kek yang sebenar.

Nyampah oke.
Patutnya aku ikutkan je hati aku nak tempah kek kat JB tu. Pastu suruh la Boy ke sape ke pegi amik or suruh je orang tu buat delivery. Time my sis wedding aritu, she got a gorgeous cake from Hanimura. Tak kesahlah sedap ke tak asalkan lawa. It is quite pricey but who cares? Nak order wedding cake sekali je seumur hidup so lantak la mahal mana pun kan.

I've choosen my wedding cake vendor long time ago.
But then, sebab kaum kerabat tak setuju aku order jauh-jauh, so untuk menjaga hati terpaksa la carik kat area my hometown ni...

The morning before the wedding, kek tu pun sampai...
Aku tak tengok pun sebab cam, ntah.. malas.

Then, after the solemnization, baru la sibuk nak tengok.

and... oh hell!
Rasa macam nak menjerit pun ada.
The color is wrong!
The flower is wrong!
Everything is wrong!
WRONG WRONG WRONG!!

i shud have known...
Kalau itu bukan pilihan hati, of course akan menyesal kemudian hari. So, bride2be semua, sila ikut gerak hati kamu okeh.

Ni bila tengok wajah kek aku dalam gambar rasa cam nak baling je kat dinding.

Sekian.

oh ye, the good thing is everyone says that the cake is quite delicious. Aku tak rasa lansung sebab macam takde perasaan dah.

'aa ada la rasa sikit time aktiviti suap-menyuap tu kan tapi ntah.

It was a 4-tier cake.
Sebab harga dia tak mahal mana pun so aku amik la 4 tingkat.
Mula-mula ingat nak amik 7 tingkat tapi bila fikir balik, sape nak makan?

So, 4-tier it is.
chocolate, blueberry, orange and vanilla.
Different flavor for each tier.

oke, rasa dia memang sedap but I still hate it.
'nape la wajah kamu tak secantik yang saye idamkan ye.

Sekian.

Another gift~

Last 2 days, we got another wedding gift.
A big oven from Hubby's friend.
Sangat sukerrr!!

*dah kawin sebulan lebih pun still dapat wedding gift lagi eh ;p

Actually, we got 2 ovens for the wedding.
Yang satu lagi tu oven toaster from my frens.
Kecik sikit so tak boleh buat baking.
This one is soo big I can put the whole chicken in it.

best best.

So dah bole slash high-volume oven from my wishlist.
But I still need a big mixer, a few stainless steel bowl, some loyang bakar, and a good food scale. Maybe lagi 5, 6 bln la baru beli.

'nape takde org nak bg hadiah food scale or apron eh? kan sangat murah tu.. <-- bajet cam ada je org nak bg ;p

Petang ni nak pegi JJ la nak carik apron seksi lawa.

And I've been eyeing this mixer from Kenwood for quite sometimes. *psstt En Hubby dengar tak? hehe..

dan oo ye. jangan tak percaya.
I'm making bread for breakfast today.

Mana ada bini orang lain rajin sesangat masuk dapur sampai nak buat roti sendiri ni kan.

haha.



and, it was you all along...
^-^

si cantek~

ye, hobi saye adalah tido.



akhirnye saye bukak mata sambil kerut dahi sebab acik Sha saye asyik suh mommy saye kejut sebab dia suh mommy amik gambo saye mangun.

'aa bila la Syaura nak balik sini jumpa acik nihh?

oh my.
I can't wait to see her next month!!

------

My stomach and back has been hurts like hell.
Dah 3 minggu ni...
Rasa macam senggugut yang amat dahsyat.
Padahal sakit tu datang time aku tak period.
And time period pun selalu aku takde kena senggugut.
Normal je.

Agaknya sebab angkat-angkat fail kat opis aritu.

Nak tidur mengiring belah kiri memang tak boleh ni.
Lansung tak selesa.
Kaki kiri pun macam kebas dah.

Rasa macam nak pegi urut je.
Tapi teringat lak time urut sengkak a few months back time rahim aku turun sebab tolak almari dulu.

Gile sakittt oke!
Jadi telah fobia nih.

Orang cakap, bab-bab rahim ni tak boleh urut sebarangan.
Takut effect apa-apa pulak nanti.

And dokter cakap, masalah urat.
So maksud dia boleh urut ke tak eh?
haih.

Vacuum... pliss!

We're going to have a new vacuum this weekend.
A wedding gift from someone tapi jenama apa, kami yg pilih.
'aa bole gitu?
hehe.

There're 3 that we have in mind.

Electrolux Lite from Electrolux.

Panasonic MC-CL481 from Panasonic.



or this cute LG Turbo from LG.

Electrolux adalah brand yang sangat best.
Same goes with Panasonic.

My mum has been using her Panasonic vacuum since mmm... I don't know when. Rasa macam sejak lahir vacuum tu dah ada kat umah and tak penah rosak.
And it's like what? 20, 25 years?

gile tahan oke.

But I don't like the color.
Rekabentuk yang agak oldies plus agak berat juger.
'aa mau patah pinggang mek ngangkat benda tu.
And quite difficult to clean sbb ada byk ruang sempit kat dalam tu...

The other choice is Electrolux yg veri d vogue.
Kaler hijau pucuk pisang yang sangat meruntun hati aku...

aaa sangat shomelll!

Hubby pun telah suka yang itu sebab among the three, this one is the most cantek and easiest to clean.

harus la kan.

sebab nanti dia yang jadi tukang vacuum umah merangkap tukang buang sampah ;p

But, I don't know.
One of my fren just bought the Electrolux vacuum and tiba2 suis dia takmo hidup and tak sedut kuat so terpaksa hantar ke service centre.

Her luck I guess.

And warna dia adalah serba putih.
Sangat mudah kotor itu.
And cepat sezen.
*sigh*

Kalau beli di SenQ, we will get some discounts and points if u're using the card, tapi... ntah.

LG pun sangat menawan oke.
Design yang chic plus kuasa yang tinggi dengan harga yang rendah.

In fact, it is the cheapest among the three.
Tapi, brand LG ni aku takut sikit.
It is not as kukuh as Panasonic or Electrolux.

Kalau ikutkan hati memang nak Electrolux tu je tapi ntah.

'comment anyone?
...

Suprise!!!

guess what???

We're proud to present... Syaura bt Azlan!!
the beautiful rainbow...
My little sis's new-borned daughter.

hahaha.

I am an auntie now!!!
no, not Mak Long plis.
It is acik Sha.
or maybe she can call me cik Fasha later, ehem, when she starts to talk.

yippieee!!!

Wedding - The Makeups

i love you...
and i want to spend the rest of my life loving you.
...

It was a beautiful Saturday morning.
I woke up at 5.30, buang inai-inai kat tangan, nyambung golek-golek and pukul 7.30 baru bangun officially. hehe.

Bila orang tanya apa perasaan arini nak nikah, aku cam, aaa?
ok jek.
Takde gabra ke gementar apa.
Sedih, nervous pun tak.
Aku cuma cakap penat je.
Letih ok badan.

I could barely sleep the night before my wedding.
And also the night before that.
Sangat tak boleh tido okeh sebab tak selesa pakai inai sambil tido atas katil pengantin.

Takut inai berselerak atas katil so terpaksa tidur secara sopan.
Siap alas suratkabo lagi ha.
Gerak sikit je bunyik.
That's whylah kejap-kejap terbangun.
Dah la malam sebelum tu aku tidur pukul 1.30 pagi sebab sibuk nak pakai inai. Cadangnya pukul 11 tu memang nak tidur dah. Tup-tup bila dah nyembang dengan sedara-mara, and diorang offer nak pakaikan inai lagi, so aku of cos la setuju kan. Tu yang pukul 1.30 pagi baru nak tidur.

Actually the night before that memang dah pakai inai pun tapi tak merah sangat, pastu gatal pulak nak merahkan lagi, so tahan je la mata.

Then bangun pagi tu, Encik Hubby texted me.

morning cyg... tengah solek ke tu?

sori hubby. cyg tgh golek2 lagi ni.
hehe.

Pastu masih takmo mangun lagi tu. rileks2 lagi ha.

A few minutes after that, my pak andam msg, Nonie otw.. standby.

fuh~ berdesup la aku carik towel gi mandi.
Dah la the night before tu dia dah pesan sebelum dia datang baju nikah ngan contact lens siap-siap pakai. Ni bila dia msg dah on the way, aku tgh golek-golek lagi ha.

Since my solemnization event will take place around 10 something, we have to start early for the makeup session.

Around 8.30 am, Noni pun sampai.
And aku pun start la mekap...

I received sooo many emails asking about my makeups and bridal. Sebab kat my hometown tu kan macam susah sikit nak carik bridal yang best.

Fortunately, Noni's touch suits me.
He did my sis during her wedding last June.




And also for my engagement.



And we're both satisfied with his service.
That's why, lepas majlis bertunang aritu terus amik Noni je for my makeup artist.

And, this is me after his touch.



Noni from Mumtaz Bridal.

I won't put his contact no. here but for those who're interested, you can check his website or you can send emails to me.

'aaa lately mmg byk email yang tak berjawab sebab pengantin ineh sangat bizi lagi but I'll try my best okeh ^-^



Photos didn't do much justice coz I think the real makeover is a lot better but it's ok now that I know that in the next 20 years I won't feel terrible looking back at our wedding photos.

hiks.

By the way sgt menci oke tgk Melodi semalam.
Menyampah yang amats tgk diorang kaco Shidee ngan mak mentua dia tu.
Biar la diorang nak damai sendiri takyah nak sibuk2.
Buduh.

and... I love yuh!

Aku baru lepas tengok Dalil Cinta kat Cerekarama tadi.
Sakit dada tengok citer tu okeh.
Bunguk la.
Ader laki dia dilayan macam tu.
Kalau aku jadi Fahrin tu memang aku campak je bini dia dalam tong sampah.
Buat perabih beras jek.

Tapi kan, tetiba teringat kat diri sendiri.
Encik Hubby has been really good to me.
People says that men will be different when they got married.
Tapi dia, masih tak berubah malah menjadi lebih baik dari yang sebelumnya.

I have been happily married for more than a month now.
And I enjoy every single moment we spent together.

Yes, we saw each other everyday.
But we still go on dates, watching movies and all.
The last movie that we watch is Niyang Rapik, yang sebenarnya aku takmo tengok pun sebab I don't really like cerita seram.

Tapi nak buat camne kan... kena la neman.
Takkan nak biar laki kita tengok wayang sorang-sorang.
...

And I saw the good side that I thought never exist in him.

Yelah, before this kan I know that he is what u called anak emas family kan. Never cooked, never ever basuh baju, never mop lantai, never sapu sampah, memasak apatah lagi, never basuh pinggan hatta air basuh tangan pun siap sedia atas meja you.

Maklumlah adik-beradik perempuan ramai.
And anak lelaki pun 2 orang je.

And I thought, takpelah...
Sebab time kenal dulu pun dah tau dia memang macam tu so ok, he'll do the hardwork, and I'll do the housewife thing.

Tup-tup lepas kawin, fuh~
Bilik mandi pun dia yang basuhkan oke.
Aku tak suruh pun.
Tengah dok tengok tv kat depan tu, ingatkan dia gi mandi, rupanya pegi basuh bilik air.

Pastu aritu on the way balik rumah, dia cakap, "nanti cyg masuk rumah terus basuh kaki kat bilik air tau. kaki kotor tu Hubby baru mop lantai."

Kat depan pintu umah tu pun sempat pesan kat aku lagi tuu suh basuh kaki terus.

fuh fuh~ laki aku ke ni?

And before this memang dua hari sekali dia hantar baju kat dobi tapi sekarang, heh~

Sejak pindah rumah ni, lansung aku tak penah mop or basuh toilet or mesin and sidai baju or buang sampah tau.

He's the one doing all chores.
Shomel sungguh.

Tapi kalau mak mentua aku tau ni memang la. Mesti dia ingat aku yang paksa my Hubby buat keje-keje camtu padahal dia yang sukarela buat ha.

Tapi sampai sekarang still fail bab basuh pinggan.
Takpe, I don't mind.
As long as dia dah tolong sidai and basuh baju and buang sampah tu dah teramat la bagus ^-^
...

my dearest Hubby,
every second I'm with you... I see a little more of heaven ^-^

tengkiu dear... for everything...
