Travel Photography: Faces of 2013


A fisherman going home after a long day on the lake, Inle, Myamnar
These portraits are of just a few of the people I have been lucky enough and photograph on my travels throughout 2013. Once again it has been a fantastic year for ticking destinations off my (ever increasing) list, and I'm proud to share these images with you. I remember each face, each meeting and taking each shot, and I believe these memories are just as important as the photos you see here.

To see more visit my gallery here or see my Behance project here
