Nine bodies of work — encountered while travelling, made on the side, returned to over years.
Tom D. Morgan is a London-born commercial photographer based in Marseille. Botanicum is his ongoing lifelong personal project — a continuous study of plant life, the gardens that hold it, and the people who care for it, made since 2018.
The work is made wherever the commercial commissions take him. A list of commissions is also a list of botanical gardens, forests and parks: Costa Rica, France, Italy, Spain, Mexico, Ethiopia, South Africa, the United States — and, most often, Japan, where four of the nine series so far are set: Seijaku in Hokkaidō, Mitsumata in Kyoto in spring, Shades of Momiji at the Imperial Palace Gardens in autumn, and the in-progress Daisugi in the Kitayama hills.

Limited-edition archival prints in three sizes.
Botanicum is currently held privately and through a small number of editions. The studio is open to representation conversations with galleries — particularly those working with photography, contemporary botanical art, or the broader Asia–Europe axis the project sits on.
A bilingual press kit (EN / 日本語) is available on request, with each series presented under its three names — common, vernacular, and botanical Latin.
Four routed inboxes. Choose the one that fits — replies usually within 24 hours, in English or Japanese.
