Professional Info :

Born in Chaiyaphum, Thailand and educated at Phukhieo School and received a bachelor degree in Communication Arts from the Rajabhat Institute of Nakhonratchasima where he studied in Photography along with undergraduate study. In 1999 he began to work for wildlife conservation in Phukhieo Wildlife Sanctuary, where he paid serious attention in taking photographs of wildlife, tropical rainforest, and people in rural and remote places.

In 2000, he moved to Bangkok to work for WWF Thailand with “Wildlife Trade Campaign Project” and traveled across the country to do survey on the illegal wildlife trade activities in Thailand and its border areas. By this work and experience, he has reorganized the crisis of wildlife loss in this region of Greater Mekong and found himself occupied with improving his ability to advance the wildlife photography for nature conservation.

He left the WWF organization to become a freelance photographer in 2005. His first feature is the forest fire disaster in the “National Geographic” magazine ( Thai edition) and fourteen features in Thai, one in Swedish, and one in Russian language have been already published in National Geographic. In addition, some photographs are described in other publishing in Thailand.
