After leaving Chiang Mai it was a trip down south for the relaxing portion of the trip and a week and a half in Pattaya. Although I do love Phuket, the ease of Pattaya (and the price) won me over, especially as it's a lot easier to arrange a photoshoot there. Although the main aim … Continue reading The Sanctuary Of Truth
Apart from the chance to re-visit Chiang Mai, the second reason for arranging this part of the trip was to finally take the opportunity to meet Jantira (Ya) from 'Boudoir by Ya' ... someone who I'd spoken with for many years over a mutual love of photography. After a few years abroad Ya had moved … Continue reading Onpreeya & The Nowhere Art Cafe
I'd been to Chiang Mai once before back in 2015 on my first real trip to Thailand. I'd only stayed a few days though and had jam-packed my time with tours and sightseeing. I knew I'd not given myself enough time there and promised myself I'd get back at some point in the future. The … Continue reading Back in Chiang Mai
As the end of August approached yet another opportunity arose that was impossible to turn down. Yohoi, a Chinese model who'd been living in England for a couple of years got in touch to tell me she was visiting Devon for the first time and staying in Exeter for a few days. As I mentioned … Continue reading Yohoi
At this point in the summer of 2022 I'd gone from almost no backlog of photos to work through, to suddenly an awful lot following the Thailand trip and shoots with Fernie, Sara and latterly Ava. I now had enough editing to keep me busy for some time and I really didn't need to take … Continue reading Savannah Came To Visit
2022 was a great year for holiday. Having accrued a lot of leave in the bank during the previous couple of Covid affected years, 2022 was the year I had to use it, or lose it. And so in early July, only a month after I'd gotten back from Thailand I found myself with another week free … Continue reading Bristol With Ava Grey
Wow, it's been ages since I last sat down to write on here! For those of you who do like to check in, my apologies it's been so long. The past few months has been truly hectic at work, plus throw in a couple of weeks in November back in Thailand (again!) and I barely … Continue reading A Pattaya Reconnection
After Bangkok and seeing Fernie, I hopped onto a mini-bus and headed down to Pattaya. When coming back to Thailand I'd initially thought about visiting both Chang Mai and Phuket, but with so much uncertainty at the time of booking and how much of Thailand would even be open I plumped for the safe bet … Continue reading Escape To Pattaya
The final shoot of my last visit to Thailand in 2019 was with Fernie Warisa and so it seemed fitting that on my return in a world post lockdown and travel restrictions that I should shoot with her first. I'd say it was poetic or fate, but actually I've only just realised that's the case … Continue reading Bangkok With Fernie Warisa
After the flurry of shoots in the latter part of 2021 (Savannah, Sim and Ava) I unintendedly put away my camera and it would be several months before I pulled it back out. Throughout 2020 and 2021 I'd sorely been missing my Thailand trips and a part of me had wondered just when the world … Continue reading A Post-Covid Return To Bangkok
