MMFA Gala Night

So, my sister, Christie and I were invited by Jaz to the Malaysian Models Festival Award aka MMFA last Tuesday. Jaz was nominated as Best Fashion Photographer of the Year! And he has only been in the fashion photography industry for no longer than 2 years! Even though he was not awarded, it is incredibly impressive for him to be in the run for the title alongside other well known photographer like Bonnie Yap! I can only imagine Jaz going above and beyond in the future.

I hope I pulled of my outfit that was put together on a REALLY short notice as I didn't really had the mood to attend the event. I'm so thankful I attended though! It was a glamorous event and I had the opportunity to meet and speak to some influential individuals from the local fashion and modelling industry so it was really awesome. The ones I met like Dato Jimmy Choo, Amber Chia, Benjamin Toong, Wilson Tan, Leng Yein and many more were incredibly down to earth and humble. Who says you need to be mean to be on top? My respect and admiration for them skyrocketed that night.

Jaz, talented photographer right there.

Leng Yein, who was SUPER NICE, I almost cried.

Wilson, who's not only fabulous but also incredibly humble.

Benjamin, glamorous and down to earth. A combo that will not go wrong.

The talented Dennis Lau and Koujee.

Beautiful Jojo.

Looking forward to attending similar events soon  and meeting new people! One of the things that surprised me most from attending events like this is the realization that I actually enjoy meeting new people and I am no longer as awkward as I used to be. Thankful for the change in me. :)
