Wow, top ten is really someone great. His poster is filled with VVIP and I am sure he had been there, done that. i dont think he is supposed to put these politicians in such badly done advertisement and consider it being a fact that it is an honor to be in front of these politicians. Maybe he really is a pro.

I just read the Sunday Newpaper report about this 'Prof Tan' and I'll tell you guys,he's
100% fake.He was involved in a buy-out dispute over his bridal boutique way back March
this year and recalled reading the news which I think was in ST.

The pictures featured in today's newspaper mainly shows him posing with the celebs,like
the kinda of fan pictures you see in magazines.One was a photoshop picture of him with
celebs in the front page.The organisers all denied that he was their official photog as he
claimed but merely grant him backstage passes as a personal favour.

Can't imagine nowadays people go to such lengths to cheat and perhaps with digital tech
available it enbolden them even further.

Boss of Christian Creation, In Wedding, Vogue Bridal, Mr & Miss Wedding Club.

Very well known in bridal studio industry.

But I have never heard of this person called .....

I have heard of people like Sebastio Selgado, William Eugene Smith (late), Michael Yamashita....

So I guess it is just another nobody pretending and self proclaiming to be Mr. big time.

 

[ckuang]

Geez! This industry gets weirder by the day.

His claims sound rather fishy, especially since the record companies claim that he was not their photographer. Can't think of a reason why the record companies would want to lie about it.

 

[benleong84]

Er, I'm not sure if he understands the criteria to hit before calling himself a professor.

 

[Zeisser]

Maybe the Contax 645 shown in his supposedly portfolio was borrowed too

 

[ahbian]

The kaypoh in me tried to google some of the award names, no hits (except with those linked to the man).

Also, did the President of Russia ever visited Singapore? hmmm...

A few years ago, there was a report about wedding day photographer whom molested a bride by pulling down her gown to photograph her breasts.
I believe he was the owner of Christian Collection mentioned in the newspaper about that incident. Imagine what kind of person he hires as well. :thumbsd::thumbsd:
