How's your Valentine's Day? We hope you get to express your love more than just one day in a year. To love and be loved is truly the best feeling in the world.

As you may have notice we do capture love mostly in couples, but this time we get to see love in families. For Joy & Robin, this is their love..baby Gwyneth :) Having a baby really changes things around the house. Your day will feel shorter, night longer...i'm sure Ivan & Helen can relate to this too. But through it all, I'm sure you smile 100x more when you're with baby Gwyneth, laugh a whole lot more and your love grow stronger. Babies are miracles from God...treasure each moment, she'll grow in a blink.

Vita's pregnancy shoot is one of the most fun pregnancy shoot we've ever had. They like it fun and colourful and it turns out very well! We enjoy every second of that shoot.

Vita and Francis is a very sweet couple. We were shocked when we first meet Vita because she is one hot mommy! 

We love their shots hope you"ll love them as much as we do!!

Very excited to see baby Amarta! 

11-01-2010 is the day that God sent us the best gift we've ever had in life…finally we have a baby girl, we name her Kioko Zoe…no words to describe how amazing it is to be a dad. To hold her in my arms is so magical.For the past nine months, we've seen her grow, sang to her, prayed for her and each day expecting for this day to finally come. The delivery process is quite a drama. I've heard so many stories about it, now it's our turn. When we first reached the hospital, the doctor estimated that it would take at least another 24 hours for Zoe to come. At first the dilation took quite a while, all the screaming and sweating finally come to this. I was there the whole time, having my hand squeezed by Helen, until we saw Zoe's head...that's it here comes the final push.We can only thank God for Zoe.

It's an awesome experience! The waiting and the pain is all worth it. Now i'm a daddy!! Let's celebrate :)Here comes Kioko Zoe...

Baby max is the youngest son of my pastor, Jeffrey and Angela Rachmat.

If you remember, we took some shots when Max was still in his mother's womb.

He is so adorable and is easy to shoot. With baby Max, I don’t really need to do a lot of work, he just smiles all the time! During the shoot, we realize that Max has his own talent to move around fast in the matter of seconds. Pastor Jeffrey had warned me about his cute behavior before the photo shoot. After a while, not only do we have to attract his attention to be photographed but also to guard him from falling and hurting himself. Max creates a great energy and fun atmosphere during the photo shoot, it was a blast!

Hope you enjoy the pictures! We love you Max! ^_^

Sean is the first baby of our old time friend and client, Donny and Firca (check out their pre-wedding and wedding). My brother, David and I were doing a wedding shoot in Bali, and we managed to squeeze in some time to meet them. We rode on a motorbike (that's a first!) and met up with them at this Japanese restaurant to chat. 

Anyone can tell how much Donny and Firca adore baby Sean. They talk with him every second of every minute, sounding so sweet each time they tease the little baby. I've always heard that they really are one of the sweetest couples we've had in Axioo :)

Sean is about a month old. There's shot of the month-old birthday celebration (of which Axioo had a piece sent to us too!). It was a great photo shoot. Donny and Firca were both hands-on and helpful, changing costumes and poses. Turns out Donny's starting to get into photography as well. And I'll have to say he's not too shabby. He's attempting to send some of his shots for us to fit into the album.

I love shooting for this family. They're always happy. Donny even allocated an entire wall that's prepared for Sean's "Hall of Fame".Complete with frames and lights.

Thanks for the opportunity, guys! 

Another baby session from me, Ivan Mariooo!!! ^_^

Well it's not about me, haha, but baby Nicole! Nicole and her mom Shirley are some of the most wonderful people we've worked with. Absolutely loved the chemistry between mother and daughter. They're from Malaysia (hmm... Axioo's been getting quite a number of Malaysian clients lately), and both bonded pretty quickly with me and my wife, Helen.

Funny moment during the photo shoot. Typically Nicole would be allowed just one piece of pringles a day. But Shirley let her have an entire can just for the photo shoot. And you guessed it. She wouldn't let go of the can!

Nicole's not into sweet food, so when we had donuts all around her, all she did was play with them. Haha!

Enjoy these shots for now. More baby stuff from me, Ivan coming soon! Woohoo!!! ^_^

Hi everyone!!! ^_^

I can't even begin to describe to you how much I love to work with children. This is my first children photo shoot I'm posting on the blog. Really excited to share it with all of you.

Ashley and Aaron are the niece and nephew of our client Agnes Dyke whose wedding I shot a few months back. Their mom is Dyke's sister. And so cool for them both to have an American dad. ^_^

Had so much fun with these cute and talkative kids. It's actually my very first outdoor kids shoot. The whole clan came out to help. Their grandmother, aunt, and mom. The whole bunch.

We spent the day in Dunia Fantasi (Dufan as Indonesians would call it). The kids absolutely adored the place. They got so attached when the mascot was carrying them and didn't want to get down. These kids are also fearless! They weren't afraid of the jet coasters. Ashley even wanted a second go!

Love love love these kids! They're so expressive, love to be photographed. One of my most enjoyable photo experiences.

Can't wait 'till MY baby arrives! ;)

Ivan - out! ^_^

I'm sure you remember adorable baby Winston who we shot a couple of months ago.

Well here're updated shots in anticipation of his upcoming birthday next month on August 2nd. He's now able to crawl. He has teeth. A lot more playful, more interactive and so much more adorable. Just more of baby Winston! :) 

Cute baby Isaac is the first son of Reza and August whose wedding we shot a while back.

He's now seven months old and super adorable! Smiling at every click of the camera. He's one of the most fun baby to shoot! It's no wonder he already has his own Facebook page! His mom has been capturing his every move from the start! :D

Congratulations to the happy parents of Audrey Beatrix Himawan!! None other than our friend Christa & Martin ;) We've been expecting Audrey for a while now, ever since Christa is pregnant we've been guessing boy or girl and who she'll look like. I'm sure she'll have the best of from both parents.

Here's some images of the happy parents just a week before her birth: 

Happy Easter, everyone ... I know it's way too late to post easters moments, but these series are too cute not to blog :)
So here is the famous baby Winston on his first encounter with baby chicks :) for easter inspirations 

Early congratulations to our friend and soon to be parents, Julia & Gilroy. Thanks for coming all the way to our little studio :) We are excited to see a little version of you..

One lovely afternoon, we had a quick stroll with baby Max and his parents Nate & Michelle. We tried snapping some shots before his nap time...this is by far the fastest shooting ever (only 15 minutes). He is so full of expression, making the quick shoot a success. He's so adorable :)

A little baby emperor sitting on his throne.

Winston saying "Gong Xi Fa Cai" to everyone. Ang Paos are welcome to be transferred to his account :) 

Pregnancy is the privilege of experiencing God's miracles on earth.

We had the privilege to capture the joy of pregnancy for Jeffrey & Angela Rachmat, our beloved pastor. Their words of wisdom and encouragement has been such a blessing in our lives. You're the best!

Thanks for allowing us to publish these pics on our blog, let this be an inspiration for all moms-to-be.

Baby Danica is almost one month old. So cute and yet seems so fragile. If you've been following our photos for a while, you'll notice her proud parents are featured in quite a number of our portfolio. It's no surprise where she gets her good looks from.

Baby photography is so addictive! If you haven't get a chance to do it, go grab a baby (beg, borrow or snatch one from your friend's...just kidding). It's so refreshing to see a baby giggles. Yesterday, we had so much fun shooting for baby Winston.

Stepping into Winston's room, reminds us of how fast our boy (Axel) grew, he's now 3 years old. Time flies! For our young parent friends, cherish your time, enjoy every moment with your baby. For our soon to be couples/newlyweds, may these photos of baby Winston inspire you to have your own baby soon :)

I have once walked a path that you are strolling down now. A path so bright with sunshine, and vivid tall blossoms.

A whole different world than what we are used to, a world that offers nothing but the greatest gift God can give.

On Saturday afternoon, David , Axel and me, together we went to the birthday party of our friend's daughter, Ciara. It's a garden party, with a theme of strawberry picking.

Today is the first of our long weekend break with Axel (well, actually not a real long weekend...he started school last Monday, and we miss timed the holiday oops!) So here we are in Singapore, doing all the little things he love.
