It's the Baby Bump!

* * * 
"SHE came into my life and gives excitement, enthusiasms, giggles..

Egocentric, carefree, overindulge.. Yes! That was me.

Then SHE came into my life and gives me determination to be someone righteous.

I ask myself ”Am I worthy to nurture this magical gift that God has sent me?”

I hope I am.. Cause I will struggle beyond compare.. sincerely for her serenity.

Now I understand.

SHE brings out a better portrayal of me.

It all simply started with a miracle touch of little angel.

My juliet.

My star.

My sanguineness.

SHE is my divine daughter.

Who holds the key to my heart."

A very wonderful poem written by my cousin, Laila Ismail, for her daughter, Zarla Malaika Siregar. It always warms my heart reading it :)

I know my hands were too cold and rigid after been neglecting my camera and studio life for period of time I can't even remember. But then here I am, completed my baby-bump project for my friend who's expecting her first child. This was my first maternity shoot. Nervous? I was. But I'm happy we made it anyways.

This series are specially dedicated to Ajeng Gracia Soetriesno, her husband Ajie, and her upcoming baby angel... Annika :)

Big thanks should go to the beautiful mom-to-be, her lovely make up artist Elly, and my dear friend Ardy who helped me with the studio. None of these would been done without them.
