Kiddie Photolab
3 Jan
Recently Dealmates.com had this awesome Kiddie photoshoot deal that only cost RM47 that was too good to resist so I bought it and redemeed it on Christmas day. That was the only day they were available anyway 
We only had all of 1 hour for this shoot so we promptly got to The Strand before her 12pm session and had a nice chat with Priscilla who is the photographer’s wife. She explained how the shoot will be done and asked us what sort of concept we prefer eg: natural / sporty / seasonal / studio shots and we naturally picked natural and studio shots (as per the photos below obviously). They also wanted to know the baby’s background and reaction to the camera, new surrounding etc which is all important to the photographer to capture that perfect moment.
And being Sairah personal slave stylist, naturally I brought our OWN outfit
We started off with the natural pose, to capture natural moments and lighting. Helps that they have this cute lil playground indoor.
Look ma, am on a swing!
Dress from Amy Coe from US. I personally LOVE this black peace tutu dress. It’s awesome, bold and unique, it’s not always about the pinks yo.
Can I have a ball pls?
At ease with her photographer.
Oh yea, photographing a child is indeed a passion!! You require TONS of patient. This is what the behind-the-scene really looks like – you have a child minder trying hard to make the kid smile and laugh, while the parents stand in front of the child giving her the ultimate support you would except out of a parent 
The natural concept took all of 10 minutes (though it felt much longer). A quick biscuit break as Bryan sets the studio for my little star.
He suggested we use this bumble bee outfit for the little one , buzz buzz!
We later changed into this gorgeous can can dress Wylane sent allll the way from UK! And topped it up with their retro headband.
Oh hi ma, don’t I look sooo pwetttie?
It’s not always easy trying to get a toddler to sit in one spot, after a few attempts of ‘trying’ to run away, she finally sat put and did her thing for the camera!
Up above the world so high….
What REALLY goes on behind the scene! See told you, photographing a kid isn’t the easiest task.
Next up was this dress I got from Mudpie from the US. I swear it’s a gorgeous little number with its bright color blocking. Topped it up with a pink headband, and cute props and wala:
Clap clap clap
Prepping her to pose
And she NAILED it, cue *American’t next top model theme song* So much intensity in her look! Tyra Banks would approve!
Her daddy and mommy were sooooooo proud of her! Can’t you tell the proud look the father is giving? That plus he was super tired from all that cheering around
Calling for the bill, hahahaha. Baby completely knocked out after a quick lunch. Literally SLEPT the minute the car moved.
And because she did such a great job (actually cheat one la, already ordered this drawing board weeks ago!), we got her a little gift. In view of the New Year.
Though she can’t sit or reach the board yet, can’t wait to see her little scribbles on it.
And to Kiddie Photolab, thank you for the wonderful photoshoot experience. I can’t give them enough praises. Though we just paid a mere RM47, we received TOP CLASS service. Why? Because there is soooo much passion from them to capture that perfect child’s special moment. They sang nursery rhymes, they made funny faces, they did all they could just to break a toddler to give them the BIGGEST smile of their life. I dont know how they do it. We got tired, sooo tired after that one hour, so I can’t imagine them doing all that for every session. It boils down to passion!
And that’s the sort of photographer you need to capture your child’s moments. Can’t wait to check out all the final photos!
For more info, you may contact them via their FB page.
Highly highly recommended! And I’m hoping Dealmates.com will bring this AWESOME deal back again soon.
Cool, Sairah looks like a natural. U should hone her modeling skills more
BTW RM47 is a STEAL!!!! Been wanting to do some professional photoshoot for my boy but keep putting it off cos he is rather “shy” when the camera is in his face… But anyways if u see any good deals like this one, do share wt me ya. Wouldn’t mind giving it a try
Thanks! The child minder did a GREAT job. Haha yea, gonna take her in for some casting later this month. Yes it’s a steal but I”m sure by the time we add up the other photos (coz this deal entitles us to only 4 printed photos) it will cost a bit but nevertheless RM47 is still very cheap. Nah, I think he just needs to practice more and the more you expose him to the camera, he’ll be comfie with it eventually. Will let you know if I come across any good deals again
Wow… kids photography is sure a tough task. Good thing Sairah has real talent. They won’t have much work to do. LOL.
I like the bee top and also the dress from Mudpie. She looks so sweet wearing them :o)
Yes it is, MUCH easier photographing adults wei. Well she was uncomfortable at first but slowlyyyy got into the mood.
Ya the bee top damn cute, very popular prop too so god knows how many kids have worn it, lol. But I really like your dress, made her look like a gypsy/dancer
Happy New Year!!!
Oh wow, what a start to a day in office! First thing I read this post, and it just melted my heart! Sairah looks gorgeous in all the photos! Oh, and I just had to laugh at the caption “Calling for the bill”! You are too good la babe!
Happy New Year to you too!
Ah you’ve settled down in the office then? I still feel like I’m in 2011, lol. Aww thanks, she looks so grown up though. Hahaha yea, I actually told her to call the aunty for the bill and her lil hands went up, she seems to be extra chatty and friendly with waiters and waitress for some strange reason.
