Read MoreSay It Without Compromise
I've recently finished reading The Art of Photography by the great photographer Bruce Barnbaum. The above quote from the book really resonated with me. Barnbaum went on to say that "Successful communication of your message is the essence of creative photography. Reporting the scene is shirking your responsibility; interpreting the scene is accepting the challenge. Though the scene may or may not be your creation, the photograph always is! So don't just stop with the things you saw; add your comments, feelings, and opinions. Put them all into the photograph. Express your point of view. Argue...
Read MoreKind Stranger
A couple of days ago I was on the train to London for the SWPP convention. I sat not far from a mum and her little boy, who was a little over two years old I would say. From their conversation (yes, little boy was quite a chatterer) I gathered that they were meeting mum's friend in London and were looking forward to a nice day out. The little boy was quite happy to begin with. He was enjoying the train ride, looking out of the windows and commenting on the houses, sheep, cars etc. Then boredom started to kick in. Little whiny noises at first, then gradually becoming louder and louder, until...
Read MoreOn Being a Good Enough Mother
Okay. Let me first warn you that this is a bit of a different post. So far this blog has been a place to show my work, and also to record some of my family life. On the whole it's a happy, sunny place to be. Today I don't feel sunny at all. I am just going to come right out and say it: Some days I feel like I'm a useless mum. And in the last few days, I feel like a very bad mum. There. The trouble is that it's all too easy to compare our insides with other people's outsides. Does that make sense? What I mean is that it's so easy to look around, and get the impression that all the other mums...

Read MoreA Look Back at 2012
What a year 2012 has been! 2012 is nearly over. I honestly don't know where the time has gone. I have this strange feeling that the last time I looked at the calendar it was March! Does that make sense? So, really, where did the year go? 2012 has been a tremendously exciting year for me. I qualified with The Guild of Photographer as well as the Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers. The qualifications were judged on two separate panel of 20 images in all aspects of photography, including technical competence, composition, creativity, impact and story telling. Needless to say I am very...
Read MoreAbout Me | Mui Tsun
I'm addicted to noodles and Kettle Chips. I'm very good at cooking badly. People often ask why I'm so passionate about what I do. Perhaps it is because I only have two pictures from my own childhood that I've made it my mission to photograph children.
