    The Photographer’s Life | My Life

    © 2009 Wazari Wazir | My Wife and My Son | Kuala Lumpur City Centre There is a reason why I don’t do part time photography like some others working photographers do. Photography is my career, I’m a full time working photographer for the Government of Malaysia. Most of my assignment involved official government functions and sometimes it happens during weekends like New Year or even during Eid ul-Fitr where most people celebrate the big days with their family. Unlike other government servant, as a photographer we don’t work only during normal office hour, sometimes we work until midnight like my latest assignment covering Kerdau state by-elections where we work…

    A Moment to Remember

    © 2010 Wazari Wazir | Kirams Village | Kundasang Sabah “A Photograph Never Grows Old. You and I change, people change all through the months and years, but a photograph always remains the same.

That is why I think a photograph can be kind.” ( Albert Einstein ) Tweet news and informationbusiness,health,entertainment,technology automotive,business,crime,health,life,politics,science,technology,travel
