Underwater Photography – Maternity Photography, Children Photography and Family Photography

Posted in Underwater Photography

Hello all,

There are a lot of changes coming to Tomato Photo as I will be going full steam to create different things that I always wanted but wasn’t ready as I wanted to spend more time with my mother who passed away in November. I never regretted the decision to hold back and it is probably the best decision that I have done in my life….

Back in the high school days, I used to swim competitively and to some extreme, I swim 7 days a week… I know I am a little extreme, I love the weightless and the freedom that water give you. So gentle and so calming…

In Tropical weather in Singapore, what not to like about jumping in the pool to cool down….

After some soul searching, a lot of preparation and trial and error, I am finally ready for the underwater photography… I love it…

You may have notice that I have added the new category in my website call “Underwater” and it will feature some of the images that I love….

Here are some images to wet your appetite….

If you are keen to have your photos taken underwater, do contact me for more details…
Regards,
Hart

Family_Photography_Singapore – Hannah

Posted in Photography

Hannah was a shy little girl when she walk in the studio with her parents.

Generally, the challenge in capturing images for children is to observe and come out with some ideas of how a child will behave during the session. Each child require different handling methods to ensure you can capture who they are. Some are shy, some are introvert and some are very outgoing and some are  just very very active.

It is always feel great to know that you have capture the person from the inside. It is easy to take a nice photograph of a child, but to photograph the personality require very close observation to the child and continue to experiment in engaging the child in different activity.

The shoot was done on 31 March and the selection and I receive an email from Theresa on the 11 April…

Dear Hart

I’ve just received the album and CD this evening.  I just want to thank you for the excellent photographs taken.  We really enjoyed the session and we are impressed with your professional service.  We have received very good feedback and comments from our family members and friends on the photograph taken.  You have indeed captured Hannah’s playfulness, innocence and happiness during our photography shoot.

Thank you very much and God bless you and your family!

Theresa

I love how close Hannah is to her parents and her cheeky personality is always fun to have during the session.

Regards,

Hart

Family_Photography_Singapore – The Morris

Posted in Children, Family, Newborn, Photography, Testimonial

As a portrait photographer, I would like to think a good image is a reflection of mutual understanding and trust between photographer and subject, so it is a privilege to be able to record and preserve memories of a child as they grow.

I am very fortunate to have clients who are coming back year after year for the same reason… preserving memories as a family and as the child grow…

I recently receive a testimonial from Kavita (Elijah’s mom) and I know these are kind words which makes every late nights spend working on images for clients feels easier and enjoyable:

Hart has done an amazing job of capturing our family photographs over the past few years.  We first worked with Hart for our maternity shots, and since then he has captured newborn photos, birthday parties and toddler pictures for our family.  He truly is a master at capturing the emotion and the beauty of the images in a way no other photographer that we have worked with is able to.   His calmness and kind personality also makes him a hit with not only us, but with my son.  The entire photoshoot process and selecting pictures is hassle and stress-free, as well.  We are so grateful to have a collection of beautiful photos- to not only share with our family and friends back in the US- but to also to look at with such joy.   Thanks Hart, you’re the best! – Kavita & Jason Morris

Here is the very small collection of images of Elijah since the newborn shoot some 2+ years ago…

Take care and good nite.

 

Regards,

Hart Tan

Family Portrait Photography – Ashley, Vincent and Charlotte

Posted in Children, Family, Photography, Testimonial

Hello all,

March was a very busy month and I have an opportunity to capture some images for a gorgeous family of 3…

Charlotte arrive as a shy little girl who hides behind mommy… after a good 15 minutes of warming up, her smile is simply make my day.

The shoot was relatively short and only lasted 30-40 minutes but there are so many shots that I love, I will feature just some of them here…

It is always nice to hear from clients on their experience in using Tomato Photo’s service… and here is the email I receive from Ashley…

Hi Hart,

You have captured the sweetest moment of us especially Charlotte. These are the moment which will be never repeated but you’ve managed to capture and make it the best memories for us.

Simply love the way you photographed because we feel there is a meaning behind every photo, a story to tell everyone.

Your photos are indeed the best present we can give our girl as her 1st birthday present, a memory that were never fade away.

A BIG Thank You for the beautiful memories.

Best Regards,

Vincent & Ashley

Regards,

Hart
