Of my gorgeous kids, of my suave hubby, of the awe-inspiring scenery, of the nostalgic architecture, of the bits and pieces of life that make us who we are. Photos are a great way to freeze time and come decades down the road, they will remain as precious memories kept in that little drawer in your bedroom and in your heart as well.
When I was offered an opportunity to have my first family-of-four photo shoot with Tomato Photo, I was rapturous and delighted.

Having a choice between studio or outdoor shoot, we prefer the latter simply because it is more us. While studio shoots might be great for newborn or family portraits, it lacks the adventure and spontaneity of outdoor shoots. Since we love the sun, sand and sea, East Coast Park was the fitting venue for our shoot.



For the rest of the shoot, we let loose and just be ourselves, playing what we would play at the beach - hide and seek, police and thief, sandcastle building, stone throwing and so on.





With kids, how can you miss out on kissing shots? Hart remarked that Angel was very cooperative when it came to asking her to kiss her baby sister, the hubby or myself. What can I say? She is well trained in that aspect and smooching is just her way of showing her love.




Attesting to Tomato Photo's professionalism, we were able to view all our images on its online gallery within two weeks from our shoot. I was elated to see that Hart had taken some really gorgeous pictures of my girls and captured the looks of pure joy on their faces.


Even though I agree that soft copies are more commonly used, I believe that photo albums are worth keeping and one day when I become a grandmother and reminisce these fond moments of being a mum, they are sure to bring a smile onto my wrinkled face.
