                           by mtan2 no comments It was not too long ago that I was shooting Mingjing & Champ’s pre-wedding. And now, we are looking at a couple, about to become a family. Congratulations to the both of you, and thank you, for allowing me to grow with your lives.

 Too many people don’t know what photographers do with their time, or why they take o long to edit the images. The truth is, most of us are stacked with folders and folders of images waiting to be sorted end edited. It’s easy to say to the photog, “take a shot of me”, “send it to this email address”.. . and… ‘why are you taking so long?’ let me just say.. the process is arduous, it is not professional and not in line with the branding to send an ugly pic, and adds on to the list of 101 other people he/she has to remember to send their pictures to, and the 100 other small task on hand to complete. If we constantly do these ‘favours’, we would be eating grass..seriously. I remember my days in a daily newspaper, when a reporter’s weekly target was to have 3 stories published. On top of that, I was also assigned to write one or two columns, plus other things like… doing translations, attending meetings.. etc etc. source of piechart: aphotoeditor.com by mtan2 no comments Holy Matrimony: Church of St Teresa Banquet: Four Seasons Hotel                                                by mtan2 no comments I learnt during the wedding that Edalene & Gerald’s favourite phrase is ‘awesome’. So forget about depending on a photo booth company to provide live feeds of guest pics on screen. The lovebirds, who both in the advertising industry, got their friends to twitter/facebook pics of their wedding, like live updates, and projected it on screen. All they needed was an internet connection! Wedding Gown: Bridal Veil by Michelle Huimin

I am grateful to you, my clients, for trusting and letting me wholeheartedly into your lives, for keeping in touch and bringing our relationships beyond business level – cooking dinner, planning a hike! And for the assignments that took me on wonderful adventures around the world. And the editor who makes me feel like I’ve won a ticket to Charlie’s Chocolate factory. Please, I couldn’t have asked for more. Two great weddings, a wonderful husband and new family. I’m not the best with such expressions. But those of you know, and thank you for the journey  by mtan2 no comments |
