Anselm Plummer: Freelance photojournalist, landscape and nature photographer originally from the UK but currently based in Davao City, Philippines. My early interest in photography coincided with my decision to leave the UK in 2013. I'd always had a great interest in the cultures and people of the world and so photography seemed the perfect way of documenting this - but at first I was much more of
a writer than a photographer as I developed my trade. I bought my first DSLR in March 2014 (a secondhand Nikon D40 from a pawnshop) and worked from there. I moved to Darwin in May 2014 which proved a major catalyst for my interest and career in photography, landscape and wildlife photography especially. Blessed with great sunsets, excellent light and the sheer diversity of nature around me, I quickly became accustomed to the photographic world, interest from local tourism agencies following. Leaving Darwin in November 2015 gave me new subjects, new perspectives, and new challenges; the isolation of the desert followed by the far more urbanised east coast. Moving on to southeast Asia in early 2016, I quickly developed an affinity with the Philippines and in March decided to relocate there for some time. I am currently based in Davao and exploring the widely unexplored southern island of Mindanao. I produce photographic art for print and online purposes, and also to accompany articles that I may write. HELP ME TELL YOUR STORY:
I also work on marketing projects, do event shoots, and can help you with your business or personal needs to aid development - contact me through my website for more details! I shoot with a Nikon D7100 mostly using the Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 wide angle lens for landscapes, the Nikkor 70-300m f/4-5.6 for telephoto work and my latest addition, the 35mm f/1.8 fixed lens for a range of work. Discovering the world slowly; currently exploring Mindanao in depth.
