"Photography, the best way to halt lives. To capture hidden moments that can't be appreciated through naked eyes, to immortalize an ordinary seconds of life that would have easily passed unnoticed."

About Jason

Some say most left-handed are totally into arts and are very creative. Absolutely right! Instead of dribbling the ball to put my 189cm height into good use, I chose to nurture and hone my innate (at least that's what i think) skills in design. My name is Jason Tan, an amateur photographer who never complains about my 10kg camera bag and bulky tripod while wandering around cities under the scorching heat of the sun. I am a perfectionist who is never satisfied with what he has and is always seeking advancement.

 

It all started with self-portrait photography. Flipping over pages in magazines, inspiration caught me in and poof! I started trying different poses in front of the little compact camera. I never left my creaking chair until I finish editing in photoshop. Positive feedbacks inspired me take a step further and fueled me to continue my unrelenting pursuit for more unique and interesting subjects.

 

From a Panasonic Lumix to D60, I upgraded to D300. In each change of camera, in each angle taken with different lens, valuable experiences were gained. And of course, it won't stop here. Photo-walking has became my habit nowadays. My interest and curiosity brought my feet to different countries and places where I wandered around aimlessly, where I got lost in a maze of disorganized streets, and more importantly, where I explored every single detail of the life as lived by people of diverse cultures and values.

 

What is photography ?

Photography is a passion, a relief from the daily stress and pressures of existence. I'm a guy who loves sitting at the corner unmindful of whether its on the roadside, on a train station or in a coffee shop.I silently observe people at different moments of their lives, individuals who may be on the same monotonous routine for at least a decade or so that they neglect most details of their lives, and seldom appreciate things that happen around them daily. Children running around searching for playmates and creating new games, fighting couples that end up hugging each other a after a long argument, narcissistic teenage girls who check out their makeups endlessly from the reflection of the glass door.

 

I always believe photography is the best way to put someone's busy life to a momentary stop, to capture moments that you never see through your naked eyes, to immortalize an ordinary second of your life that would have easily passed unnoticed . Feel free to browse through my inspiration. If any photos that caught your eyes, don't hesitate to share as e-card to friends/family or you could have them printed with various sizes. Constructive comments are most welcome. Sit back and enjoy!
