About

Born in Manchester, England. I studied ecology at the Universities of Lancaster and Calgary. After traveling around Europe and Australasia I worked as a guide in the Peruvian Amazon. I now live in Okinawa, Japan where I work as a photographer, travel writer, and lecturer. I specialize in capturing iconic images of Japan, from Kyoto’s geisha through to Tokyo’s street racers.

I shoot with the medium format Pentax 67II system. It results in a heavy travel bag, but the huge transparencies are outstanding. I use Fuji Provia and Velvia films for their fantastic color and exceptionally fine grain.

My photographs and travel writing have been used for newspapers, magazines, television, travel guides, internet publications and academic textbooks.

Travel Features and Stock Imagery can be viewed at my website www.travel67.com
Licensing of images is available 24/7 through www.alamy.com

Travel Features and Galleries of Japan

I recently set up the website www.travel67.com where travel editors can quickly view a variety of my articles along with the images that are available to illustrate the text.

I’m interested in getting feedback from fellow photographers about the images and layout of the site, and from travel editors about the concept of licensing articles via the site rather than traditional proposal methods.

Thanks for all your comments

Chris
