  • About

An Aberrant Presence:

An infrared camera is used to mark the positions of military equiptment in a civilian context.

Xinjiang Before The Camps:

In 2008 the Chinese government was starting to cement its hold on the resource rich Xinjiang by suppressing cultural and religious differences in schools and workplaces and by resettling millions of eastern Chinese into the western region.

Modern Miracles:

This personal project, published by National Geographic, is an attempt to see where the spiritual world meets the tactile world.

The Chapels Are Open:

When Las Vegas went into lockdown it shuttered most government services but kept its Marriage License Bureau open. “In a way, Vegas is set up for something like this,” Lynn Marie Goya, the clerk of Clark County, Nev., said of the safety restrictions and other social changes the virus has wrought. 

Syria From Both Sides:

During the Syrian revolution few journalists recieved visas to report on the government side of the conflict. Twice, while working with a Finnish newspaper, I was able to work cross the front lines and photograph the government and rebel sides.

Commissioned Portraits:

Enviromental and studio portraits are a significant part of many assignments. I rely on experience and technical flexibility to create a storytelling portrait in challenging situations.

Fancy Pigeons:

“Pigeons are rats with wings” is a common sentiment in the US but they are an art form for the pigeon fanciers of Cairo.
