CHIANG MAI PHOTOGRAPHY
by James de la Cloche


“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!”

My husband and I are beyond thrilled to express our deepest gratitude for the breathtakingly beautiful photographs James @ DLC photo services captured during our recent trip to Chai Lai. From the moment we saw the stunning images, we were transported back to those precious moments of joy and love we experienced during our trip.  See on Google…

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…

I am not only a lover of elephants but also, I love to support the indigenous children and women. We stand fierce with our beautiful friends from Daughters Rising. They empower at-risk girls to end trafficking in their communities & break the cycle of inter-generational poverty. Chai Lai Orchid exists to provide training and employment for these girls and funding for Daughters Rising. Thanks to everyone booking photoshoots with me, I am able to donate THB 15,000 each month!

Discover how to visit only ethical places.

Today I was reflecting about KINDNESS and I want to share with you this tip. It’s very important to be kind to YOURSELF . When you are kind to yourself you can be kind to others and learn to love the community. ALSO, when you love yourself, you might make a mistake in life. Well, that’s fine. We all do!  Just acknowledge the mistake, learn from the mistake and move on from the mistake.

Follow the PHILOSOPHY and you will feel much happier within yourself. Love you all!

I feel blessed because thanks to the shootings each month I can donate 15kBhat to the foundation @daughtersrisingthailand 
This month the money was used for workshops like this one to the kids. I’m so happy seeing as the money is used to support them mentally through meditation and pranayama classes.
