Wedding of WeiMeng & Caroline

Congratulations to WeiMeng & Caroline. Some say they are the Vagsg version of Christopher Lee and Fann Wong. ;-)

New Pub Photoshoot

I was called to shoot a new pub by Octopus Group - one of the largest pub chain in Singapore. With very extra ordinary taste of deco and setup, the pub will definetely draw crowds. I cant show the pictures in public as the pub will be officially launched through the media and thus, no pictures from me except a teaser to post in my blog.

Wedding of Simon & Alison

One of my best friends' wedding - Alison & Simon! Its really so heartwarming seeing you & Simon walking down the Church alley and tieing the knots! Congrats to both of you

Fun at Hyatt

This is what I called 'Bo Liao'. 6 of us having so much fun in the hotel room. Just let your imagination run wild, what did we do?! ;-)

Ex-Samling Gathering

It has been awhile we catch up with one another back in 2005. Lynn came out with the idea and I just blast the sms to everyone and here are some of the replies from the other ex colleagues:

Royce: "In Japan"

(which he really was. Forgiven)

Jodie: "Overseas"

(we all very doubtful of that, kekkeke. History proven)

Cyril: "I am busy. I will call you back"

(in the end, he never call back...)

Anyway, we had a GREAT EVENING at Vivocity!

Zaino this baby

Lawrence just got his A170 on Friday and first thing he does was to give his baby a good Zaino coat. So, he came over to my place and got me to give his new car a good spa treatment. ;-)

Simply love the color. Just imagine if thats a Audi S5. Kekekeee..

Michael . Joanne

Just did a wedding shoot for these beautiful couple last weekend. Congrats to Michael & Joanne! You guys are awesome. Hope to catch up with you guys soon and thanks for the lovely lunch!

"If I can start a business, so can you"

I was invited to give a short presentation to some of the graduates from Wealth Academy #13 by Arthur Low. He, too, was graduated from WA #13 and since he is the leader of his group, he would very much want me to share my experiences of how I venture into my business after attending my WA #7 which was 1 year ago in Nov 07.

So, last night at Arthur's function room in his Condo, together with 14 other group members, I presented the 2 passion of my life - Audi/Zaino & Photography. With that, I started Karsoon Photography & Karspa Pte Ltd. If I can start a business, you can too.

Video clip for the TT Gathering

Here is the video clip nicely done up by the organizer, Robert Seah. Do enjoy!

Audi TT & R8 Photoshoot

Sunday morning, more than 20 TTs & R8s were gathering at the Terminal One for a grand gathering, organized by the event guru, Robert Seah. Its his first GTG which he organized in VAGSG but nothing will stop this seasoned event guru for putting all the TTs & R8s in place for a good photoshoot. I was glad that I make it for the event and thanks to Robert, Sharon of Audi Spore for putting it up for all the drivers.

Permas Go Kart

Havent done go karting for a long long time. The last time we did karting was about 3yrs ago at KL track. This time, we have a small group (Audi Cab Club) with Sis and friend, 4 cars drove to Permas to have some fun!

It was rainning quite badly when we reached there but good thing was we had a game of 15mins of karting, with rain coats. How nice! We got all our clothes wet but the fun of karting and drifting just made us wanna do another round. Too bad, the rain was pouring quite badly after our game and in the end, we decided to give up. Poor Eddie (JB) din even have a taste of the kart and we all drove back. The mudding roads will definetely make us think twice of coming back again! ;-)

Liquid Kitchen Photoshoot

I was asked to shoot both outlets of Liquid Kitchen on Monday evening for Bukit Timah & Serangoo Garden (coincidentally we just had our chillout session with the Mickey mouse couple last Saturday). Got to rush home and grap my equipment and then drove down to Bukit Timah at meet the client.

Here are some pictures. The best part is the food photography! Where we got to eat every dish that I shot. Kekeke.. that was my yummy dinner that night.

Are you hungry now? ;-)

When xiao didi meet da jiejie!

When my Kab is parked next to a Red Hotz RS4 Cab, you tend to see how $hit my car is. *sigh*

Formula One - The Night Race

For the very first time in GP Racing, Singapore has its honour to host one of the world most spectacular Formula One racing at night and its all happening on 26, 27 and 28 Sept. Being the not so F1 fan, I never bother to finish a single race on TV before but this time, I just wanna be part of the history to experience it live, up close at the tracks!

Thank you, Eddie for inviting both me and Aiai to the qualifying race on Sat night to have a taste of what F1 race is all about! We were sitting at the Bay Grand together with Eddie and his Lenovo colleagues, all of them were holding the portal TV set and we even got 1 for that evening.

It was packed with people all around. We did not even bother to drive and once we got out from City Hall MRT, we already could feel the excitment by hearing all those Vrooming sound by those monster V12 engines.

We had a great night at the Bay and guess what!? I managed to bring my 400mm lens into the park and I passed through the security! Ha!

ESN Carnival 2008

Great job, everyone for making the ESN Carnival a fruitful day for the elderly from various old folks' homes.

Got to meet Edna at one of the Starhub Customer Wine Tasting a few months back and thank Edna for assigning me as her wedding photographer for her Wedding Banquet this Friday. Congrats to both Philip & Edna!

Pictures are all ready!

A bundle of joy!

This September is a good month. Not just my Birthday and the big event Formula 1 in Singapore, but our dear Lydia had also just gave birth to a new baby girl yesterday at Thomson Medical, 2pm. Weighing 1.98kg and yet still as chubby as a sweet little thing. I got to see her first thing I touched down in Singapore from my GuangZhou flight yesterday.




Congrats to Mike & Lydia!

My 37th Birthday!

How time flies, its my birthday again! Thank you so much to my dearest Aiai for planning the dinner for me and yes, I got heaps of Bday wishes, cards & presents from all my beloved friends and families. Thank you everyone and I love you too.

Here is the group pic we took at Jumbo @ Dempsey.

Getting my new Porsche!

Yeah Right! Its a Porsche, alright but not the car, the glasses. Being to serveral visits to my regular spec shops and never got the chance to find the glasses I like. But yesterday, just out of the impromtu visit at Manchester Eyewear at Woodsgrove and Jacky started to carry all the latest eyewear from Porsche Design series. I was like WOW, ok, stepped right in and started to try all the model. Finally, I got these with super slim transition lens. Price? Cheap! Frame $280, Lens $350

Southern Ridges Sunday Walk

Its a group formed by Vagsg / Whitford / Joygathering but spearheaded by CK, our friend but blur tour leader. *LOL* About 20 of us gathered at McDonald's Habourfront and we set of around 830am to the Mt Faber. Those killer steps up Mt Faber already killing me softly and we had people like Aaron, VeronHo who can jumped up the stairs like their muscles were made from KW coilcovers! Hahaha..


We set of together but once we reach the first rest top at the top of Mt Faber, our group split into 2 groups - Convoy A (with high power turbos) and Convoy B (NA cars which takes alot of CC but no power). ;-)

No prize for guessing which group I was in but anyway, I was so into taking pictures using my new prime lens and teaching HUGGS & our new Indian friend on how to take pictures using "M". In the end, we became the Lost Group!


The Henderson Waves was so beautifully structured. We spent quite some time enjoying the senary and finally we arrived at Hort Park, a garden filled with beautiful flowers with green house effect.


A total of 9km (or maybe longer which the ache in my legs can tell) walk, really take a great workout for the day. We all had a great fun day. Thanks to the organizer and thanks to those friends who had came to join in the fun! Good on ya!

Moving to Mac World

I remember when I was 8, my first mac computer was AppleII. That was my first computer which OwMa bought for me. I was then so addicted to the games (Galaxy? shooting spacecrafts) and I still remember those text based and acsi codes but after 30years, I am going to buy my first Mac, iMac. Amazing how many people had convinced me to get a Mac and took me that long to get a Mac. Should I also get an iPhone to go witht it? See, its a chain reaction! Ha!

I had placed my payment and just counting down on the days for it to arrive. Hopefully I will be able to get my hands on this beautiful Mac before my Birthday. Take it a treat for myself then! ;-)

Thanks Buddy Jonz for all the help!

IRC Mega Gathering (10yr Anniversary)

IRC Mega Gathering

After 10 long years, I decided to hold a mega gathering like what I often used to get everyone to dine at the Victoria Street, Water Chicken (WC, we called it). The idea was generated when both myself and Capricorn were having our dinner at Causeway Point and suddenly we though of having everyone to come and make merry. Too bad, the co-organizer, Cap, due to her company event, she couldnt make it but hey, look at the crowd that turn up.

Dinner at Sketches, Bugis Junction

Sitted (L - R): Warm / Dolphines / Meekat / Sweetsmile

Standing (L - R): Dorlee / Lady in red (with baby) / Aquarius (with baby) / Mushu / Beannies / Snoop

Standing Far (L - R): LIR's Partner / Drywit / GI Joe & Partner

Missing in the photo: Karsoon & AndyWee

Audi A4 Cabriolet Night Out

Everyone turned up for our cozy little dinner gathering last night, including Deck & Monique, Macd and our new friend, Jean (Daniel's partner).

Kids are kids

Spent my last weekend at JB. My nephew, Glenn, loves fishes so much and keep pastering me and Aiai to bring him out to catch some guppies at the drainage nearby.

Being the nice uncle and aunt, of couse, we took him out and at the same time, to take some pictures.

Here is one I like.

Fun with Photoshoot

Just one of those boring Mondays......

Fire up, Korea!

It was a wet wet evening and yet, thousands of people still dont mind getting themselve wet at the Marina Bay to watch this once a yearly event - Singapore Fireworks Festival. Thanks to Tien An whom helped me to get 100 tickets (50 for my colleagues and 50 for my VAGSG friends).

6ish, Aaron, mei and myself already there but we did not sit at our numbered seats. Instead, we went all the way up to the highest ground where the spotlights were, grap a good spot and watched the pre-fireworks performances (Yawnn...zzzzz). Only till the last performance, I was still deciding to withdraw my tripod out from the bag. Only took 2 mins to setup my tripod and my remote cable and attached it to the camera and waiting for the first fireup.

The whole show took about 20mins but nothing compare to the China fireworks which we watched last year. Aiai, you din miss much lah! ;-)

Didnt bother to take much due to the rain and the smoke. So, one picture to show ;-)
Till then, we see you next year!

New S4 Brakes

When I say STOP, you better STOP!

Silra Home - Getai 2008

Another big 3 cheers to Joygathering for the successful event turnout last weekend - Getai. More than 8 performances by Silra home volunteers, nurses, Bright Hill & All Siants, we managed to make the old folks good memories which they will not forget. Not forgetting all the food food, prizes bidding, games & the balloons. Its tough job for everyone but its all worth it.

Premium Automobiles officially moved from their interim showroom back to Leng Kee Road and this time, its twice the times (2 stories) bigger than the previous one. With Mark & Hadi did the Ribbon Cutting ceremony in the early afternoon, followed by VIP invitation together with the press and media, we also had the chance to walk down the red carpet to witness this grand opening!

Congrats to Audi Singapore & Premium Automobiles!

A little pat on my shoudler

This may sound like a small deal to many but this is definetely a GREAT deal to me. Its my first cheque which I received from my first coporate event photoshoot after I had setup "Karsoon Photography' about a month ago.

Its time to have a pat on my own shoulder and work towards a great venture out there! Soon, it will be my next few thousands and who knows, it will be $2,000,000!

*Can someone clap me?! Stop dreaming, Jason!*
