“While
pursuing a career in ethnobotany - living and working with some
of South East Asia's most remote and traditional societies - Aroon
began to document and photograph endangered cultures. Her work
with the Moken sea gypsies of Thailand led her to complete an
MSc and gave Aroon an opportunity to publish her images of the
last nomadic hunter gatherers in the region with GEO Magazine,
The British Library, LIFESTYLE+TRAVEL and many other publications.
Since then Aroon has been shooting travel features, coronations
and killer waves for various magazines and her agency On Asia
Images Photography (www.onasia.com). Right now, Aroon is putting
together a collection of images for a book on Thailand's hilltribes.”
