Description
Many articles have been written about perceived negative aspects of what’s known as ‘Hill Tribe Tourism’. Taking a hill tribe tour in Chiang Mai is not uncommon, although some people tend to consider it unethical. Usually because they have been ill informed by lopsided media coverage.
But should you miss out on a potentially awesome experience because you're worried about something you’ve read?
During the years I have spent living in the north of Thailand, I have had amazing opportunities to photograph and make video in hill tribe villages. I'll talk about the cultural experience that could change the way you see the world and share with you some wonderful portraits.

Great talk from KL. He's obviously very experienced after all his years in Thailand, and gave good advice on how to get the photographs you want, without being rude or offensive to the local people and their beliefs - or at least how to minimise any accidental cultural insensitivity! A very useful talk, with lovely accompanying images.
