"The Katoeys of Nana" is about acceptance and sharing. I was fortunate to be accepted into the katoey gogo clubs at Nana Plaza in Bangkok as an observer, as a photographer by sharing the images with them.

Thailand is the land where the girls are beautiful, and the boys are even more gorgeous, because they work hard at being more beautiful.

This book has 120 pages of photographs.
These are portraits not of Thai ladies, but of Thai Ladyboys,
the Katoeys of Nana Plaza.

Enjoy.
