Yup, its been a year now. A long year might i add. One that went with alot of trials and tribulations for us, but equally, of good fond memories as well. So after a year, how’re we doing you say? I’d pretty much say Great! Though Rafie and i are not sure how popular we are out there in the real world, the stats do seem to be quite high these days. That i thank the readers ; ) I do hear the odd stories though of how people know us outside from time to time. I know photographers are shy people, hey, we’re shy as well, thats why we’re on the net! But seriously guys, if you happen to meet us, anywhere, Malaysia or UK, just come up to us and say hye. We’d be hyped to see you guys. Not just because you know us, but because like you, we’re just passionate photographers as well.

Going through the photos of past Lensa’s website, its pretty amazing to see the changes the sites been through. Rafie’s great at doing that. When you pay him to do your site, you dont just pay for good design, you pay for his professionalism. The whole package. To me thats rare and far in between nowadays with the overflow of designers out there. But Lensa was a friends collaboration, a side project from our usual daily life routine. Something we could look afford to doing, and we’d have total creative direction of the site.

Lensa’s evolution

If you happened to notice, there are a lot of good photography teaching sites out there. Amazing sites with amazing, detailed content. But totally uninspiring in terms of site layout and design. To us photography will always go side by side with design. Both of them related to the visual arts. Thus Lensa was born. Out of the need to actually enjoy looking at nice design and photos as much as reading quality articles.

Lensa has alot planned up for its future. More podcasts, but this time with guest photographers on board. We may even change the face of Lensa once again, making it more magazine like. More photo editing tutorials, with Rafie posting more of his quick and concise Photoshop vids, and me of using Aperture 2.0 and Viveza. Are there any photo contests coming up??? Haha, well not in the near future, but we will definitely do one later on. I don’t see Lensa fading out any time soon ; p . Hopfully by then we’ll have awesome kick ass prizes to give away. So stay tune for that. Owh yea, and we’re still developing the iphone app ; ) .

Desicion to include film photography on Lensa

Before we end this Birthday Article, i would love to thank our readers for continuing to support Lensa, and in time we’d like to improve the quality of our articles. We don’t want to be like alot of other sites out there, just posting alot of stuff from other sites. Our main aim is to provide quality articles, thats readable and understandable even to the beginner. In the upcoming year, we hope that u guys would drop us more feedback on our site and give ideas for articles that you may want to know about. Afterall, sharing is caring ; )
