Azhar Mahrof from STAR - The Winner Photographer


Patience and persistence paid off for The Star photographer Azhar Mahfof when he won the first prize in the Best Photo Essay category of the Malaysian Press Institute (MPI) Petronas Malaysian Press Awards.
His winning photo essay titled Amazing Haziq featured the daily routine of a 12-year-old boy, who was born paraplegic.
Azhar said he spent two months persuading Mohammad Haziq’s father to allow him to take photos of his son’s daily life.
“After I got the permission from the father, I spent two days talking to Haziq and his father so that I could portray the true picture of the fiercely independent boy,” he said after receiving the award here last night.
