Alright folks, sorry again for the lack of updates, been busy amongst other things, preparing for print competitions as well as the 4th quarter of AGWPJA and WPJA. In the meantime, do drop by Lyrical Moments’ facebook page , I do post there quite regularly these days š
2009 had been a great and blessed year for Lyrical Moments and this slideshow is dedicated to all of you here, who have in someway or another contributed to part of our success. We’ve bagged 20 international awards for 2009 and to all my couples whose wedding images have won, thank you so much for being part of this legacy! š

Greetings from UK! Ā I’m actually on a train traveling towards Central London – they actually have wifi onboard their National Express!
This is going to be one of the shortest trips ever, after spending 17 hours getting my butt to Newcastle from Sg yesterday, I’m spending 8 hours in Central London doing some shopping and meeting clients there, hopefully grab some funky toys from Hamleys for the boys.
Had one of the worst oil dripping fish and chips in Newcastle yesterday, but well…that gave me enough energy to take some photos around Newcastle upon Tyne)

Been a week since I got back from photoshoot in Melbourne and weather was really fine, though some of the days were pretty chilly, but it got really warm, especially on the day that returned to Singapore.
Some of my favourites from the Melbourne series, more to come later, I promise š

MPA and WPPI, these are the two organisers of the toughest photography competitions for wedding and portrait photographers, and looking at the previous winners from the different category, photographers like myself will probably spend days hammering out the prints, send them to USA or UK, and hope for the best.
Just received a congratulatory email from Master Photographer Association in London (MPA) that one of my images has made it to the finals for the Overseas Wedding Photographer of the Year Award!
That came together with an invitation to the awards ceremony in London come Oct 2009.
However, much as I would love to attend the awards ceremony, as well as see the other finalists and winner’s print next to mine, plus the chance to mingle with some of the veterans in this biz, I happened to have an assignment overseas. Ā The biggest irony is, both the clients happened to be based in London, but their wedding will be held in their hometown back in Asia.
Good news and bad news come in a pair, usually.
I receive approximately 20-30 spams daily on my blog and there we have, this chap who caught my attention, and he obviously bothered to copy the same spam and post it 3 times in a month, after I deleted each of them.
Oh yes, the emails that this chapĀ used areĀ jacktob30@yahoo.com and jacktob191@yahoo.com , both of which are non-existent. Ā So that makes me wonder whatĀ his/her real name is.Ā
But one thing remains the same,Ā the IP address 203.126.56.6Ā that brings us to National Cancer Centre Singapore;Ā Ā managed to pull some strings in one of the forums and viola,Ā some fella who calls himself /herself a healthcare professional happens to share the same IPĀ address. Healthcare professional and National Cancer Centre Singapore might be coincidental, of course the IP address, well…. š
So here’s to Jackson Tobias, jack tob or jack fruit or whatever fruit you wanna call yourself, I don’t know what you have against wedding photographers, but just let you know that your words means nothing, since you’re as good as a ghost, nothing.Ā Call theĀ Clubsnap Live @Sam workshop a joke or aĀ waste of your time for all I care,Ā thereĀ are dozens ofĀ otherĀ appreciative attendeesĀ who haveĀ emailed or sent me notes to express their thanks.
Yet another classic exampleĀ of nameless individuals, hiding behind their computer screens and ranting off, which is why the spam queue is the only placeĀ such posts will go to.
