For my second shoot of the trip I’d arranged to meet up again with Alisa Eve. The previous shoot in Bangkok half a year earlier had been so much fun and I was really keen to work with her again. This time we would be in Pattaya and as it was at a hotel I’d stayed in before I was already familiar with the layout and had a good plan for what we’d be capturing – it was the same place I’d first shot with Niki and although that was a bit of a disaster (due to the DSLR breaking) it had given me plenty of ideas for a return!
As before, Eve was a total professional with great pre-shoot communications making life so easy. Not something to be sniffed at when you’re making the initial arrangements several thousand miles away!
We started by the poolside with some simple bikini shots. It did make me laugh as for several days beforehand I’d used the swimming pool regularly and always had the entire place to myself. Of course, the day Eve visits and the pool had other people there! Just typical! Still, Eve didn’t let that put her off one bit.
The second half of the shoot was back in the room with my hope that the setting sun would flood the bedroom with golden light. Sadly … it was a drab sunset and that didn’t happen. The room though still absorbed and reflected plenty of natural light meaning we could easily shoot both a lingerie and nude art set before it set.
This was really one of the best shoots I’ve done on my travels and we took so many photos I was happy with. So much of that credit must go to Eve who really is phenomenal at what she does. She’s really becoming a popular model now in Thailand and I think she really deserves it.
As before, this one was vlogged so please do check out the video on You Tube.
In the real world I’ve just sat down to start editing the images from our third shoot (June 2025) but until I’m ready with those I really hope you’ll enjoy these ones from the summer of 2024!
