Full disclosure, I was pretty nervous when I knew there was going to be a prize ceremony for the Entrepreneur 100 Award I was awarded. It was going to be a full red carpet event at the prestige Marina Bay Sand! Receiving the award was truly an honour and it reinforced my passion for being a family photographer.
“Being recognized as one of the top 100 Entrepreneurs in any industry is a remarkable achievement, and we are immensely proud to have been among those honoured.”
A quick run-through of what went down that evening, I had my hair & makeup done. Couldn’t say I enjoyed it, as it’s not really my thing. My pillar of support, my soulmate was with me every step of the way, as always. The night was pretty fun with lots of networking opportunities and meeting many other driven entrepreneurs, which was very inspiring. (And also people-watching. Everyone was so glamourous!)

A photographer’s job is so much more than simply photography. Juggling enquires, culling photos, retouching, marketing, scheduling etc, every single step is crucial in maintaining Good Customer Service.
“I once read a quote that goes along the line of “Be the mama your child brags about“, and that is what drives me every day.”
