Adriel’s 1st Birthday was held at home in Putra Heights. There is nothing quite like having a children’s party to fill you with joy. In Malaysia it is a long accepted custom to put up marquees onto the street when having a wedding, birthday or wake. All races do it and drivers respect the practice. One of the problems at night is lighting them sufficiently for photography. Sharp eyed people will notice the use of off camera flash in these photos. In fact I do point out in one of the last images of this post to take note of them. This is a technique I have used at almost every shoot I have done for well over a decade. It really makes the colour POP!
Thank you bags

Time to cut the cake
The joy of having a nephew
Note how using remote flashes enabled lighting up the inside of the marquee
Goodnight!
