A Thai Wedding Shoot
A friend asked me to shoot wedding pictures around the old wall in Chiang Mai, so we went for a tour, rode in the tuk-tuk, then did some evening stuff before ending the following day with a morning at the elephant farm outside of town. Let me know what you think.

May 12, 2009Man, you need to get into the “destination wedding” photography business! Care to share some behind-the-scenes details about your use of off-camera flash for some of these photos?
Also, I really like the Flash-based image gallery you are using. Nice and simple.

May 12, 2009Actually, I like that people in the background do not seem to notice much. It would be hard to catch a shot without everybody just staring. I love the walking through the market shot: it feels very casual formal, very Chiangmai.
That shot, the tuk-tuk shot, and the elephants (multiple elephants, that is) shot are my favorites. They are fun, have an interesting perspective, and reveal that side of the couple.

May 19, 2009Wow, I know them. I didn’t realize they got married here. Those are amazing photos! I took a couple classes with Rowan and Will last year, and have a Canon Rebel Xti. I live in Chiangmai.

September 3, 2009Stumbled upon your website reviewing wordpress themes. This is really good! The elephant shots are so cool and the walking through the market one – as Cooper said, very casual formal, excellent! The bride’s portrait in front of the oriental architecture is very juicy and well lit. Congratulations on this shoot!
