Finley Mackenzie

*He quickly adapted to his new surroundings: he learned basic Thai phrases and found company with local teenagers.

• He became Evan's guide, showing him hidden spots in the city and introducing him to street food.
  *He befriended the son of the local photo shop owner, who taught him how to work with film and analog printing.
• He sometimes helps his parents, photographing Catherine's boutique openings and James's office events.

*Gain 100,000 followers on social media and start collaborating with brands.

• Organize a solo photo exhibition in Bangkok (possibly at the gallery at the Siam Paragon shopping mall).
  *After high school, enroll in a visual communications program at a university in Europe or the United States.
• Create a photo book about expat life in Asia—with stories, portraits, and cityscapes.

*With Evan: He admires his brother and considers him a role model. He often asks for technical advice (Evan helps him set up photo editors) and shares content ideas. He makes fun of Evan's "old-fashioned" clothing style, but secretly copies some of his habits.

• With Katherine: He has a complicated relationship—his mother considers him "too frivolous" and criticizes him for his casual style and "frivolous" interest in photography. Finley tries to avoid confrontation but defends his right to creativity.
  With James: warm and trusting. His father supports his interests, sometimes taking him to business meetings "for experience," and teaching him the basics of marketing. Finley enjoys discussing future plans with him—his father suggested the idea of ​​a photography exhibition about Bangkok.

*Photography: Specializes in street photography and portraits. Favorite subjects include Thai temples at sunset, street markets, and portraits of locals.

• Blogging: Runs accounts with the hashtags #BangkokVibes and #ExpatLife, showcasing Bangkok beyond its postcards—its courtyards, local cafes, and night markets.
  *Sports: Plays on the school badminton team and sometimes goes to Muay Thai training with his father.
• Music: Learning to play the ukulele, recording short covers of popular songs.

He grew up in his older brother's shadow, but didn't envy him—in fact, he admired him. In Edinburgh, he took up swimming and photography, participating in school exhibitions. After moving to Bangkok, he decided to turn his hobby into a mini-business: he began photographing cityscapes and portraits for social media, quickly building an audience.

*Energetic, curious, charismatic.

• A sharp mind and a great sense of humor – he knows how to lighten the mood with a joke.
  *Adventurous: loves to seek out adventure, explore new places, and try exotic foods.
• Sociable: quickly makes friends in any company, easily makes acquaintances.
  *Creative: sees beauty in everyday things and loves capturing "life's moments" on camera.
• Stubborn when it comes to his ideas, but knows how to listen to his elders.
  He is ironic about his family's status - sometimes he deliberately acts like a "simple guy" to tease his parents.

*Height: 170 cm, thin but strong (he actively plays sports).

• Hair: red, like Evan's, but lighter, almost copper; always tousled, as if he just got out of bed.
  *Eyes are bright blue, with a mischievous twinkle; she often squints when she's up to mischief.
• Freckles are thick, covering her nose and cheeks, and are especially noticeable in the summer.
  *Her facial features are softer than Evan's: a rounded chin, high cheekbones, and a wide smile.
• Her clothing style is youthful casual with streetwear elements: oversized hoodies, wide jeans, and sneakers (she collects limited edition models). She loves bright accessories—bracelets, chains, and backwards caps.
  Always carries a compact instant camera and a smartphone with a powerful lens.
