ON A HIATUS
Psst! Just a whisper to let you know I won’t be posting here for a while until I’ve cleared the massive backlog of recent wedding, commercial and event shoots. Occasionally, freelancing takes its toll and you discover you’re all alone because when it comes to artistic rendering, it’s a personal business—and no one can lend a helping hand. Instead, you can find some of my recent work at JAN SHIM PHOTOGRAPHY on Facebook or FOLLOW ME on Twitter for the oh-so-occasional updates.
The “GA” motif spells GAP in full not Giorgio Armani ![]()
Photo by Gavin at Lexus shoot in Jerudong, Brunei Darussalam

Very nice photo by G. The black and white shot actually matches your serious mood.

Yeah G spells potential !
Seriously exhausted mood to be precise having been on my feet since 9 am that day under the burning sun and shooting hand-held all day!

You should be a model for GAP.

Not a bad idea at all. GAP clothing is one of my favourite casual / work wear just too bad there isn’t a single boutique in Brunei and the nearest outlet I get mine at is Singapore.

I’ve been in this run-and-gun mode for one and a half months now juggling everything that’s in my path. Everyday is Manic Thursday

Photography and artistry aside, the look of you calls for a `gap’! Wise decision to take a break!

Well Violette, life is no Kit Kat for me yet. I have about 5,000 images (rounded off to nearest thousand) to look at. It’s not that I’m actually editing that many photos but as long they’re in the folder, I’ve got to eye ball them all before they eventually go to print.

Well Jan, Manic thursday is bad idea. God created the world in 7 days and he commended His people to observe the day of rest on Sunday. Hope you are not too busy to go for your favourite fried kua-tiaw at Soi Heng on Sunday

Well, Stephen Covey published the “7″ Habits and then followed by the 8th Habit: From Effectiveness to Greatness. Canon is certainly not going to stop at the EOS “7″D. I think we folks in Belait are blessed with days that are less manic compared to our friends in BSB where it’s manic everyday!

Awesome 50’s style b&w-excellent on part of Gavin. I like it when I’ve got a back log- it gets the juices flowing. Get post processing! Hope to see some of the goodness when you finish.

The B/W effect is one of my signature work. Credit goes to G for the great composition without which there would be no basis to post process. Thanks for visiting.
