"Ellie and Child" is a portrait of an endangered female Asian Elephant (Elephas maximus) and her calf in the Karen Elephant Serenity sanctuary in Chiang Mai, Thailand.

Mae Kham Suk was rescued from a logging camp where she endured pulling heavy timber on a daily basis. Her daughter, Heng-heng, was already born in the sanctuary and was spared the brutal process called "Phajaan" or "crush", and escaped a lifetime of abuse in the logging, riding, or entertainment industries.

This image was taken in 2019 while I was on assignment in Chiang Mai, investigating the legitimacy of these elephant sanctuaries.
