CSR & NGO Documentary Photography in Asia
CSR Photographer for NGOs & development agencies
Specialist CSR photography and NGO documentary work across Asia for over 30 years.

NGO Documentation Photography Across Asia
From clean energy infrastructure reporting to on-the-ground NGO documentation for development agencies, this archive covers 30 years of fieldwork across Nepal, Bangladesh, Laos, Cambodia, and Thailand.
My documentary approach has also shaped my family and school photography work in Hong Kong, where the same principles apply: trust, observation and authentic moments.
This archive also became the foundation of my stock photo backlink method, using documentary images to earn editorial links from universities, major media and contextual blogs.
NGO & CSR Photography for: The New Scientist, UNDP Thailand as well as São Paulo, Aarhus & Oxford Universities
Whether documenting clean energy projects for the Asian Development Bank, food security programs for CARE, the approach never changes, earn trust, stay unobtrusive, wait for the real moment.
