Jessica Courtney
Yesterday I received a lot of positive response on Hebers Vega’s multimedia essay. Today I want to highlight one more student, Jessica Courtney with the Preemptive Love Coalition. Jessica, along with her husband Jeremy and other staff work hard to bring life saving surgery to Iraqi children. The story is an amazing one and worth [...]
Heber Vega
Note: There seems to be a bug with the Soundslides Plus player. The first few captions are bleeding past the edge of the screen. If viewed full screen this problem goes away.
To review; I have seen that many NGOs (Non-Government Organizations aka not-for-profit organizations), especially the smaller ones, have less financial resources to be able [...]
Halabja
I have made it back home. Back to my wife and my child and my bed. I am going to take a few days to try to reconnect and get my health better. I had rough case of bronchitis the whole time I was gone. Physically this was one of the hardest I have ever [...]

The Hands of Rat Island
As you know, I’ve been giving myself assignments lately for several reasons. Of course the main reason is just to push myself. But another and just as important reason is to force myself to get out into my community. I travel all over the world, and shoot every imaginable location, but the place I probably [...]
The Bangla Sahib Bungalo Slide Show
It has been a month coming but here is one of the two multi-media slide shows I promised readers. It is a series of images and audio recorded on location at the New Delhi, Bangla Sahib Gurudwara or Sikh Temple. The place is amazing and like all Sikh Gurudwaras they feed the less fortunate daily. [...]
Thaipusam Multi-Media Gallery
This is my first stab at a real multi-media approach to imaging. You can find the link HERE. I used Soundslides Pro and it was easy peasy. I had hoped to use some ambient sounds but there was just not enough caught on my buddies 5D. He was shooting for video and you know those [...]
I shoot for mostly NGOs and nonprofits. I photograph images of the unknown, the forgotten and the helpless. These are often the stories that most people overlook.
