About Me

Asther Lau

Hello!

I am a Malaysian female photographer based in Kuala Lumpur/Selangor that loves any kind of photography listing from nature to skyscrapers, especially portraitures for newborn babies, toddlers, pregnant families, couples & families as well as weddings & events.

I am also an avid scuba diver which enables me to capture amazing underwater images from all around the world.

This blog follows both my professional life (as well as) some of my personal life, featuring MOMENTS from the maternity & newborn sessions, weddings & beautiful people I managed to capture with my lens, the places I travel and the friends and family members that mean so much to me.

This blog will also serve as my photography website, featuring my work & information of available services from yours truly. :)

It also contains random information source for my current and potential clients as I’ll (from time to time) provide some useful links of wedding tips & what-nots for your ”surfing” pleasures. I hope this blog will also be a source of inspiration and education for other photographers.

This site is a little more informal and I just want to give everyone a sense of who I am, and what I am all about. Do feel absolutely free to leave comments or post questions. You can also contact me for other booking enquiries. Thank you for visiting and REMEMBER to stay updated with Asther Lau Photography’s Blog by subscribing to our RSS feed!

Travel: Earth Hour 2010

Event, Other Useful Links, Project 365 (Year 2010) | 27 March 2010

We were at Pangkor Laut Resort during Earth Hour this year. The resort manager, Jeff Mong, told me they’re participating once again this year in hope to help create awareness amongst everyone on the issue of climate change that is currently affecting our dear Mother Earth.

Here are a few moments I help documented during Earth Hour at one of their dining location, The Feast Village. We had our bountiful buffet dinner with candle lights that night. Romantic!

Here I’d like to quote what Jeff told me that day,

“Our effort may seem small, but it’s the awareness that will spread in hope to encourage environmental conservation effort among us. Especially so the younger generations may still enjoy what we have now.”

while pointing at the beautiful beach scenery in-front of us.

So, let’s strife for a better tomorrow. Every little thing counts!

ALP’s Birthday Contest – Voting Begins!

Announcement, Poll | 19 March 2010

Voting is now closed & will be announcing the winner soon! But you already know that! ;)

Hello everyone! :D

Sorry for the lack of postings lately. Had been really busy with several deadlines before I went for my eye epi-lasik surgery on recent Monday. Since the surgery, I’ve been resting my eyes for a few days to encourage the healing process. It’s now Day 5 and I just had the protective contact lens removed few hours ago. My vision is still blurry at times and extremely sensitive to light source, and YES, writing this post is actually quite a challenge at the moment. ;)

Now back to the Asther Lau Photography’s Birthday Specials Contest! :D

This contest nearly turned into a flop, really! Cos there was no entry what-so-ever for many days at the initial stage. Finally, upon the closing of deadline, we finally received three (yup… ONLY THREE) submissions for the contest. Hahaha… I was originally pretty disappointed with the response but upon talking it out with a fellow friend (who’s also a judge for this contest), we came to a few conclusions.

1. My blog readers/fans (in majority) do not like to write! :P

2. We intend to continue the contest to honor those who’ve submitted their entries because they’ve sacrificed their time & effort to write their own entry. Since the title for this year’s contest is “To Sacrifice, To Love”, these contestants have sacrificed for the love of ALP’s work! So ALP want to thank them with some love back! :D Hehehe…

3. Since there are only three contestants,, each WILL WIN something from ALP as promised.

Okay… enough chitty-chatter about. Here’s the second stage of the contest whereby we’ll need YOUR vote to decide on who’s the ultimate winner for ALP’s FREE photo session. The person who gets the highest number of votes will be announced as the winner for the FREE photo session with ALP after voting is closed on the 26th March 2010. FYI, this date is my birthday together with my little girl, Haley. ;) The remaining two contestants will automatically win ALP’s e-voucher worth RM100 each.

Here are the links to the three submissions. Would you be kind enough to go over & read them and then cast in your vote, please?

Thank you so much for your vote & do stay tuned for the winner announcement on our birthday! :D Meanwhile, I’ll try to post more cutie pictures in between the voting period. ;)
