Faces of the Philippines 2012

It was back in November 2009 that I first visited the Philippines and started my journey into humanitarian photography. Since then I’ve clocked up over 100,000 miles, documenting work in Haiti, Guatemala, Zambia, Malawi, Nicaragua, Bolivia and Sri Lanka.

Faces of Nicaragua

Continuing with the ‘Faces of….’ posts, here’s a small selection of shots from my recent assignment in Nicaragua.

I’ve just returned back home this week from my trip to the Philippines, feeling a little tired and jet lagged but still buzzing from the experience I had over there. Photographically, I think I captured the shots I was assigned to do from Outreach International, but it was great to be able to capture the [...]
