James de la Cloche Photographer Chiang Mai, Thailand

“I feel like an artist with my camera. I can see amazing moments occurring in front of me and I love to capture true emotion and love. I am best known for my photos and videos of people with rescue elephants. My photos come from the heart and the connection with my subjects is what makes my photos special. No matter who it is I’m photographing, I am able to bring out their best. I guess that is my gift!”

So happy to choose James to be our photography with the elephants. We felt so good and so comfortable and we can felt he loves what he is doing, choose him was the best experience because he has the knowledge about what is he doing and about how to work with animals (persons and elephants).
Pictures are amazing, natural and fun, nothing force, you will forget that the camera is there and you will have the best memories with his pictures. See on Google…

Did pre-wedding with James. The whole experience was great – adventurous, interesting and unique. There were pictures with waterfall, elephant, temple, mountains and paddy fields. Much more than he promised. He really went extra miles (by car ;-) for great shots. We were especially impressed by his ideas with elephant shots. Such a highlight for our trip. See on Google…
