Photographer's Bio
Jose Tan is an International Fashion, Advertising, Portraits and
Wedding Photographer currently located in Bangkok, Thailand.
Heavily influenced by photography icons such as portrait photographer
Richard Avedon and Peter Lindbergh as well as fashion and fine art
photographers Patrick Demarchelier, Kristian Schuller, Jose Villa and
Zhang Jingna, Jose is most passionate about the process of watching
his work unfold: from brainstorming to concept, collaborating with other
creatives to the ultimate unveiling of the final product.
Being nominated for Best Fashion Photographer in Asia by TiC Style
Awards in 2009 opened international doors for Jose, and since then
he has enjoyed successful working relationships with clients from
Europe, Asia, Africa, United Arab Emirates and the United States.
One of his greatest passions is sharing his knowledge and experience with
others via his popular photography workshops, which he conducts out of
his studio in Bangkok. Teaching everything from lighting techniques to
photo editing, Jose is a great motivator whose enthusiasm for photography
has instilled confidence and elevated the technique and expertise
of hundreds of students over the years. One only needs to browse his
testimonials to see that his deep love for what he does is practically infectious!
Jose enjoys cooking Thai food, running, reading and audio books in his
spare time, and finds inspiration each day in the love of his two children,
Tyra and Tyrone. A native of the Philippines and currently located in Bangkok,
Jose envisions a potential future living in New York City. Having conquered
so many horizons on his home turf as well as abroad, it would be the apogee of
all his hard work, as well as a personal dream come true.
