Year 2019

First and foremost, let me start off wrapping up my year 2019, starting with this 2019 best nine from my Instagram. For 2020, I just let my Instagram be my happy go lucky sharing account, not curating to chase likes, follower numbers, style, pattern, trends or only post photos shot from the digital cameras. Thank you to those who have supported and encouraged me on my photography journeys!

For year 2019, my third year in my sole proprietorship photography business, basically for the first three years, it’s all about building up the foundation from 2017 to 2019, I was “schooled” all over again on running my own business by the society and economy. What I can say about year 2019 is accumulating my life lessons, experiences, dealing with trolls and competitors, learning from many setbacks, disappointments and hurt, handling people who look down on me. There are some good things that happened in year 2019, expanding networks and working relationships.

I have 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 fourth year and beyond, let’s go!

Last Decade (2010 to 2019)

On the subject of my reflecting on the last decade for my photography, this was a period of growth in my photography, honing my photography skills, knowledge and experiences. At the present moment and future, I am still learning and improving in my photography, a lifelong philosophy that I adopt on both professional and personal basis.

I shall let my photography collections do the talking
