After 2017's epic trip I was raring to go with another adventure to the land of smiles. Another 3 weeks ahead of me and I had dreams of beautiful Thai food every day, beaches, sunshine, late night partying and plenty of photo opportunities. My trip was planned in the same way as the previous year; … Continue reading Sickness in Siam
Finally on 2017's trip I made it to Promthep Cape, the most southerly point on the island of Phuket. A perfect spot for breathtaking sunsets over the Andaman Sea and somewhere you almost feel obligated to see when you travel here. I'd missed out in 2015 and 2016 (as mostly, I couldn't really be bothered!). … Continue reading Promthep Cape and those Phuket Sunsets
Earlier this year I wrote a post about my second trip back to Phuket and now, only a few months on I'm penning another post for my third visit, 12 months after that one! It starts off badly, but does finish a bit better I promise, so bear with me! I'd talked in that previous … Continue reading Wats of Phuket
As you'll have seen by the limited posts since the previous Thailand story, I didn't do an awful lot of photography related adventures for much of 2017. For the most part I spent the year working hard and saving away so that I could get back to Thailand for a third time and in November, … Continue reading Temple of Dawn
For the final few days of my trip I found myself heading back to Pattaya on the eastern Gulf coast. I'd been to Pattaya the year previous and although it wasn't my most favourite of places, for just a couple of nights it's an ideal place to party, drink and dance. A good send off … Continue reading The Pattaya Blues
As I write this I've just finished binge watching After Life by Ricky Gervais on Netflix. If you haven't watched it, I thoroughly recommend it. Hilarious and sad at the same time. A heads up however that it might affect the tone of this post! After my shoot with Dia in Bangkok, the next day … Continue reading Return to Phuket
So, day one in Thailand had been pretty exhausting. I'd visited Ayutthaya and I'd also done a night shoot with Tegoshi Miwa. I wasn't done yet though as for day two in Bangkok I had a second portrait shoot booked in! I thought I'd start things off a little easier though and after a lie … Continue reading Dia
Whilst I'd been having a great time exploring Ayutthaya, as the day wore on my thoughts increasingly turned toward my evening plans. Over the past 12 months I'd been exploring portrait photography more and more and the opportunity to shoot a model whilst I was in Thailand had worked its way into my head. 'Nelly' … Continue reading Tegoshi Miwa
November 2016 arrived and with it was my planned return to Thailand. I'd had so much fun the previous year that I was determined to return and see some of the things I'd missed 12 months earlier. Top of the list for my first few days after arrival was to visit the ancient city of … Continue reading Adventures in Ayutthaya
Here it is, the final of my posts from 2015's trip to Thailand. Expect some posts from 2016's trip in a few months time, but I think it's likely I'm going to move off travelling for a while and post the results of the portrait shoots I've also been working on. Phuket ... Patong especially, … Continue reading Land of Smiles
