I like this wedding dress.. The fashion and hair style is following Sarah Jessica Parker in her wedding dress filming on the set of Sex and the City movie. It's classically beautiful with combination of elegantly modern. Phoebe & Kok Siang really got the taste of design. Visit d'ZIGN for you facebook (click under LINKS on the right) to see more photos.
Photographing people has opened my eyes to the world in wonderful ways. It's given me a life so rich, because people have shared their lives with me. This is what I learn from Maggie Steber, national geographic photographer. "As photographers, we ask people to be vulnerable before us, and before the world," she says, "so we should approach with humility and be prepared to be open and vulnerable too." These pictures I took for Evelyn's first month birthday party. What a great honor for me to have the trust from her parents Bensan & Merry, to be transparent as their photographer. They've been a great example of a faithful couple, strong in commitment and loyalty, even in the midst of tough situations. Gave me clues to capture what makes them unique as a new parents with their new born lovely daughter.
Lost my voice, coughing non stop ... oh man ... yet days must go on. My body was so tired, aching, leg pain ... in the midst of tight events and projects schedule today. I had a meeting, Indonesian service, fellowship since morning ... and in the evening preparing for an excited Christmas Dinner & Dance event for ICG6 with my faithful helper, Xiang2. To be honest, with Xiang2 being there this whole day, really lighten my burden a lot lot lot lot. Her action and initiative in serving really excellence and has gone extra miles in details. In times I couldn't speak, she speaks on my behalf. In times of sacrificing, she reward me with my favorite Starbuck's Dark Cherry Mocha. In times of my energy has lost, she walk and ran on behalf of me. In times of my non stop coughing was really disturbing, she ran to get a gelly drink to sooth my throat. In times of phone calls need my attention, she answered on my behalf, took my responsibility and covered me. In times of preparing the best for D&D event, she prepared the excel sheet with solutions in her mind ready for my options. Xiang2, thank you for running together with me, my heart, my burden and responsibility with excellence and willingness attitude. Really touched by your love, servanthood and loyalty. I'm honored and so proud to have a partner and friend like you in serving God together.
Today I had 2 project shooting since morning. What a great blessings and enjoyment to always come out with new creative ideas and ways to serve. But my body was feeling not well. Specially in the evening, vomited three times. Oh my goodness, coughing whole day ... really disturbing specially in times like this when I have a lot of projects to finish and need 100% concentrate with my body, soul and mind. Few hours after vomited, I ate some sweet corn, biscuits and cereal, wanted to have some rest but couldn't sleep. So I decided to sit down, and try to finish one design of SKIN emailer ... Oh la la I couldn't imagine I still can produced this art, "design" has been always amazed me, given me joy and heals me. I guess I could feel the joy of the Lord, specially when He designed me, mold me in special ways even when I couldn't understand. No wonder the joy of the Lord is my strength and make my soul rejoice again... just because of today is another creative day that He has made. 
"Lydia, you're a great inspiration, I'm really blessed to have a leader like you and submit under your leadership. I've never seen a cell group like which you have led. You are a good leader." To be honest, I could not even see myself that way, but Andri has been saying this encouragement words since we were in City Harvest Indonesian Maids ministry together on the year of 2004. He is a man after God's own heart and was one of my most 
faithful, loyal, committed in serving me. Even when I faced many struggles and tough times in my life, instead of criticizing, he choose to still be there trusting me with his heart, supporting me with his energy, praying for me, serving me and the people that were under my leadership. He is not only a great team player in the ministry, not only a good member, but he is also a powerful leader and a friend of mine. Even until now, although Andri has moved to stay in Australia, but with his dearly wife, Rorra, both of them are still loving me, supporting me and trusting me with their heart. Dear Andri & Rorra, all that you've done, means a lot for me. If I could be a healthy person and a better leader right now is also because of your trust, your love, prayer and support in all these years, for the whole of who I am. Thank you for the opportunity to take the photograph of both of you and your beautiful daughter, Elisha. I still remember when Elisha was born, Andri had been always share to everyone, "Elisha is a miracle of God given to us". Elisha dear, through this photos hope you could see that you're truly a miracle and you're sooooooo blessed to have a faithful daddy and a dedicated mom who pray for you fervently and loves you unconditionally.
