Tran Tuan Viet: Bringing Vietnam closer to the world

The 2017 Vietnam Excellence Photographer of the Year takes a humanist approach when capturing his images and photo stories to offer a positive, beautiful, and benevolent gaze of his motherland. From an amateur, Viet has grown to become an award-winning visual storyteller as he captures candid shots of life in Vietnam, contrasting its imposing landscape with its unassuming people.

The profound simplicity of Vietnamese daily life can be witnessed through moments of innocence, intimacy and freshness that mark his photo stories of Vietnam. Today, his work featuring Vietnam’s people, landscape, and traditional culture, is commissioned by international clients, and has also been published widely by renowned worldwide media.
