T-R-I-B-U-T-E

Gloomy feelings sorounds.. In less than 24 hours, we will officially say farewell to our good friend, advisor, student and senior photographer Azizi Ahmad.. Azizi will be migrating to Libya as an expat..

Azizi Ahmad is a very talented photographer.. He sees things differently from other and he has his own unique way to capture images.. In a way, I would say that he is quite original in his photographic approach.. The most amazing part is that he takes amazing images all using only his eyes with minimal camera knowledge.. He captures images full of emotions and moods.. He started out as a junior photographer for Shutterbugz less than a year ago and climbed his way to seniorship within just a few months.. He is the kind of person who took challenges and takes no as an option.. Even with just sufficient camera control, his weaknesses never stops him from producing amazing images.. Too bad that he couldn't be with us longer to further his knowledge with us.. But knowing him, I am sure he will never stop learning and becomes a great photographer on his own..

Before Azizi, another great fellow of Shutterbugz had left too.. Aidil left us on 15th of December 09.. He left us to pursue his dreams of becoming an architect.. He received an offer to further his studies in architecture in a local university.. Aidil was my sidekick.. He was my PA and assistant.. I doubt that I would ever find one hell of a cool sidekick ever again.. Wishing Aidil the best of luck on his studies..



Well, Azizi and Aidil aren't the only people who contributes and the only members of Shutterbugz.. We have the brilliant 19 years old photographer Shafeeq who also takes astounding shots.. No one could guess that his images comes from a person of such a young age.. He had started taking photos for the past 3-4 years and to make things even more impressive is that he started out photography with film.. It is true passion to him taking photographs of weddings.. Salut~



Our junior photographer Shereen also has been an amazing sport.. She was persistent when applying to join us as an apprentice.. She sent me her resume and portfolio twice and she went all the way to bug me.. Emails, SMSes and asked other fellows of Shutterbugz to inform me of her existrence.. Well, she deserves to be in the team.. I admire this kind of effort in people..  She is now making real progress.. Tungguuu~



The most important person in the company must be the owner.. Yanty is my wife, my soulmate.. She is the founder of Shutterbugz Studio and she had been there with me through thick and thin.. She is an amazing photographer herself.. For now, she stops taking photos for a while due to pregnancy.. She is now the head designer for our albums.. What I can tell you is that she designs albums so great that some of our clients actually had tears running down their cheeks.. Yanty could orchestrate an album beautifully.. The arrangements and the melody.. The peaks and the lows.. The best album designer ever.. Thank you very much dear.. Shutterbugz would be nothing, non existence, yadda2 without you.. Thank you for being by my side all this while.. U RAWK!!!



To Azizi.. Remember us as your friends.. Have a nice and safe journey.. Have a good life abroad.. We are very proud to have a friend, a collegue and a PHOTOGRPAHER like you.. You will always remain as a Shutterbugz member.. Bon Voyage~

This was the first time that I've met Azizi when he tagged me to a wedding in KL Tower..
