rodin Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Hello, I'm an American photographer with a BA in both Photography and Anthropology, and will be moving to Thailand in the beginning of 2006. I would love to be able to find a job in the industry in some way, and have been looking, but nothing seems to come up. Is there any way a farang can find work in the photography industry - either shooting, in production, galleries, etc? I'm getting a little frustrated, and may have to come in to teach just to get my foot in the door. Any advice would be welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAZZELL Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 (edited) I might be wrong but I thought photography was one of the areas you can't get a work permit in ??? There might be ways round it...ask about. There is an English photographer called Dan White based in Bangkok who knows friends of mine...google and find his site. He might have some info. Good luck. And let me know how you get on...I'm a snapper too!!! Edited November 9, 2005 by RAZZELL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAZZELL Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 I can't find Dan White's website address at the moment but he's represented in the UK by Panos. They might be able to help you get in touch with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodin Posted November 10, 2005 Author Share Posted November 10, 2005 I can't find Dan White's website address at the moment but he's represented in the UK by Panos.They might be able to help you get in touch with him. Thank you for your advice. Ya, I saw that photography is incompassed in the no work permit area, but, because it is such a broad industry, I'm hoping to find a way around it. I found his website at danwhite.org, and he has beautiful, soulful images. With your permission, I'll approach him for some input as well. Thanks again, Rodin <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAZZELL Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Like I said...I don't know him myself, we just know some of the the same people in the UK...I PM'd him about going for a beer in BKK...but as per usual it never happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
