44 and Fabulous: Lessons Learned on My Entrepreneurial Journey

my entrepreneurial journey

I woke yesterday morning feeling like I could take on the world. I mean, I’m 44 years old! That’s a pretty big deal. I’ve survived four decades of life and more than 15 years on my entrepreneurial journey managing at The MelRish Studio with my husband, and I’m still here. I’m still standing. I’m still […]

Khloe Turns Three

2013 is coming to an end and all we can say is it has been a very exciting year for us. But before we go into all the details and start raving about how wonderful a year it was, let me tell you that we gladly celebrated Khloe’s 3rd birthday! Yippee! We are wedding photographers […]

Khloe Turns 2

Today is a special day. Our little girl is two – the dreaded “terrible” year. She had terrible spells already a couple of days ago and it was something new for us. If you have any advise for a screaming toddler in public, let us hear it. But then again, she has sweeter tricks under […]

Arish Celebrates At The Top

This is a silly post because this happened way back last July. It was Arish’s birthday and I decided to surprise him with a trip to the tallest building in the world – Burj Khalifa. We have always shot candid moments of other people so it is quite a treat when we get to shoot […]

Dubai Birthday Photography: Siham’s 1st Birthday

We love shooting events and being part of special events in someone’s life. So when Zainab called us to shoot her daughter’s 1st birthday, we gladly accepted. Siham’s parents made sure the party was a blast and it was! The invited kids got excited to see Barney the mascot. They also chased the bubbles and […]

Best Birthday Ever

I am jealous of bloggers who blog about how wonderful their lives are and how everything seems to be sunny and bright. I get addicted reading their posts because their posts make me smile and their anecdotes inspire me. But I then realized that it is not their lives which seem to be picture-perfect but […]

Abu Dhabi Birthday Photography | Usaym’s Jungle Theme Birthday

Remember Usaym or Uzzy? 6 months ago, we had a really fun portrait session with this active baby. He was only 6 months old then. Time really flies so fast and now he is one! It was a pleasant surprise when we reached their home and found our photos 6 months back hanging on their […]

Dubai Children Portrait Photography – Maxene Turns 7

If you think she looks familiar is because you have seen her in our blogpost about Elia’s 1st Birthday. She is Elia’s older sister and she turned 7 last March. Unfortunately, we were already booked when the family asked us to cover her birthday party. 🙁 So we just had a short photo session at […]

Out and About: A New Pizza Place

We have sooo many backlogs we almost forgot to post and this is one of them. 2 months ago (can you believe that it is that long?!), we celebrated a friend’s birthday in Mamma Mia -one of the newest pizza places here in Dubai. Located in Radissons Blu, Dubai Marina, this small quaint Italian restaurant […]

Little Krix turns one

For her first birthday celebration, we got the privilege to photograph this little girl who is close to our hearts, Krix! We have been friends with their parents for years now and it is good to see our daughters growing together. Krix goes Chinese! Babies are the most challenging subjects. You have to get them […]
