If you have read my Key Updates December 2025, you would read about my past few months had been really stressful and pressurising for me. December 2025 is mainly consolidation, reorganisation on family matters first, before other areas. I haven’t really been out taking Christmas light up or festive photos, or even my own personal photography. Thus I am reposting my Hokkaido Christmas Tree photo (taken in 2016) again.

I would take some time off to let my personal visual storytelling play the role of photography therapy as I seek to let my writing, photography and publishing zines to guide me through this tough period.     

I know today 25th December 2025 is Christmas Day, here’s my festive gift shopping wish list if any of my kind-hearted friends are thinking/planning to get some gifts for me, it can be a 2-in-1 gift combo: Christmas (December 2025) and Birthday (January 2026) gift combo!

• DJI Neo 2 
• Smart Watch 
• Toy camera (Kodak Charmera) 
• Canon RF lenses
• Compact sized APS-C camera

Thank you very much for the support and encouragement that some of you folks had showered upon me in my recent update. Wishing all a Merry Christmas 2025 and Happy Holidays with your family, loved ones and friends!

I would also like to take this opportunity to say a big Thank You to various camera, travel companies, travel community partners, technology brands, pr and media agencies, organisations and fellow photographer friends, filmmakers, creatives and supporters for this great working relationships, friendships and support for my photography and travel portal/blog during this Year 2022 as the world accelerated the reopening and recovery of the economy. 

I probably wrote too much in previous editions of Merry Christmas posts, therefore I decided that I would leave that for my year end reflection post instead. Here’s wishing all of you a Merry Christmas 2022, hope you have a great time with your family, loved ones and friends over food, drinks, gatherings, warmth, care, hope and love.  

Thank you for your belief, support and encouragement in Year 2022!

Sending my best wishes to all with my iconic Christmas tree that I shot in Biei, Hokkaido, Japan, during my Hokkaido autumn travel photography adventure in October 2016. Hope everyone of you would have a good time with your family, loved ones and friends during this festive season.

Thank you for all your support and encouragement for my photography and travel portal/blog during this year 2019 as well as my commercial photography business too!

Moving forward into the new year 2020, I would be using the last week of 2019 to review, plan, discuss and strategise changes for my photography and travel portal/blog in the year 2020 – http://blog.photojournalist-tgh.tv/

Current topics for consideration and planning
– Regular content creation and sharing
– Changes to backend/hosting
– Getting SSL to make it https
– Change to a new template

On the area of my commercial photography business, I had recently renewed my photography business registration for 3 years, FY2020 to 2022. For the first three years, it had been very difficult, very steep learning curves, received some harsh life and business lessons, judged, criticised and trolled. To my 4th year and beyond, let’s go!

Follow me, as I continue to grow on my TGH Photography x Canon EOS RP Explorer Series Production in the year 2020.

This is the iconic Christmas tree located in Biei, Hokkaido, Japan!

I do not have a lot of gatherings, parties, feasting, gifts exchanges etc during Christmas period, I don’t even show much pics too. Nevertheless, I am grateful for the small gifts, Christmas cards and private family gatherings. As I take time during this Christmas festive season to rest, recharge and wrap up year 2018, I would also like to take this time to send my appreciation and big thanks to family, relatives, friends and supporters for all the belief, support and encouragement.

Wishing everybody a Merry Christmas, happy holidays and have a good time with your family, relatives, loved ones and friends!
