This was one of the most exhilarating photo experiences of my life! Running around barefoot (long story) through the ancient ruins of Ta Prohm, dodging crowds and smiling at congratulatory remarks from Japanese tourists.
Angkor Cambodia is a UNESCO World Heritage site comprised of over 1,000 ancient temples of the Khmer empire.
Ta Prohm was the location of choice for this shoot. You may recognize it from the movie Laura Croft Tomb Raider. It was built in the 12th and 13th century as a monastery and university. It’s one of the Angkor sites left at it’s original found state – large trees growing into the ruins, piles of pillars and foundation scattered everywhere.
There is an interesting back-story to this shoot, which I will share with you sometime this week. For now, I give you the portraits:
Next up, a very exciting announcement about a project that begins Sunday!!
