Nomad Clothing Bangkok Shoot






I got to do a quick half-day shoot while in Bangkok early this month. What fun! It was for Nomad a small boutique selling bohemian style clothing at Amarin Plaza in Bangkok. You can find their page on Facebook by searching Nomad Clothing Bangkok.

Special thanks goes to documentary photographer Patrick Brown for providing the location.

Looking Back: 2006 - First Time on Travel Channel

Almost exactly five years ago, I was contacted by a TV researcher at Tremendous Entertainment, working on the Taiwan segment of the Travel Channel's Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern. Many exchanges went by and rather than getting the gig as a translator, I wound up with an invitation to be an on-camera guest. I was fortunate to work with Tremendous on three more projects after that, a pilot for my own show, Bizarre Foods Holiday Special and Bizarre Foods Bangkok. I'd like to share the video of when it all began.
