The three best parts of Kuala Lumpur:

1. Watching my family experience a busy Asian market for the first time. They impressed me with their bartering!

2. The Petronus towers at night. Gorgeous!

3. Backhome hostel. Seriously, so cool.

Next up: Bali!

  4. Hi there, stumbled across your blog a few days ago. I live in Kuala Lumpur! How nice for me to see great photos of it from a traveller's point of view, makes us look at our home and city a little differently.

    1. a mix of 24-70mm, 50mm, 85mm, and 35mm. our 35mm unfortunately took quite a beating in indonesia so it's now out of commission for a bit! :(

    2. awesome. ok so the million dollar question. i'm always asking photogs this.

      1. what is your favorite portrait lens? your go to for sessions?
      2. what is your favorite travel lens, all around "do it all" kind of lens but still look sharp and have a nice bokeh?
      3. if you had to shoot on only one lens... what would it be?

      haha. okay and also just out of curiousity, what's your guys favorite? i know that's a mouthful haha... but i REALLY need a new lens and i'm always bouncing between an 85 or a 35 but then i think 85 you have to be sooo far away, and that has its pros and cons... and then a new wide?! ugh i am a mess.
