We’re having a fantastic time in Siem Reap! Marco Ryan, Gavin Gough, Matt Brandon and I are here with 14 participants for the first annual Angkor Photo Workshop, I’m so busy I have absolutely no time to blog it. I’ll just post this one image and say… we wish you were here.
Philippines: Portraits from Bohol
Hi everyone. My ability to blog during this trip has been limited, mostly because this is my first official photo tour here. Although I scouted this trip two times, I still feel a responsibility to double and triple check things, to ensure that everything goes smoothly. I find myself spending an inordinate amount of time […]
Historic Vigan, a UNESCO World Heritage City
We’ve now arrived in Vigan, an amazing, UNESCO World Heritage city. Established in the 16th century, Vigan is the best-preserved example of a planned Spanish colonial town in Asia. Its architecture reflects the coming together of cultural elements from elsewhere in the Philippines, from China and from Europe, resulting in a culture and townscape that […]
Sagada: Hanging Coffins & the Road to Cervantes
Sagada is a small, seldom visited town nestled in the mountains, about 6 hours drive, north of Baguio. The highway leading to Sagada is one of the most scenic stretches of road in the Philippines. Sagada is inaccessible by large buses due to the narrow winding road. It was slow-going most of the way but […]
Manila to Baguio to Sagada an amazing road trip
Leaving Manila after a few days of some amazing street photography we headed out in our private bus, north towards Baguio, the summer capital of Luzon. I’ll drop in two final portraits from the streets of Manila, just because I want you all to know that the Philippines is such a great place to meet […]

North Vietnam: Hanoi to Halong City and Cat Ba Island
Our photo tour took us from Hanoi to Halong city to catch our private Chinese Junk to Cat Ba Island. Along the road from Hanoi to Halong City we took the opportunity to stop and photograph the farms and farmers who work the land along the road. The above image by tour participant Glenn Bacon […]
Hanoi, Vietnam: Perhaps the “panning” Capital of Asia
We’re in Hanoi now, but leaving for Halong Bay in the morning. It has been an amazing 2 days here. Hanoi is one of my favorite places for street shooting and for panning. By now everyone in the group has tried it, and today with the overcast skies and even lighting, we had great conditions […]
Can Tho to Hội An, Vietnam
After one final day shooting the sights of Can Tho, we headed back to Saigon for our flight to Da Nang, and the short ride by road to the UNESCO World Heritage town of Hội An…
