What I See vs What I Shot #whatisee @africa #streetphotography

The scene behind the scene - Im not usually one to post photos of myself, but I'm truly grateful to @jared_mattfeld for taking these shots (He was the videographer of the team!) - the scenarios are from some of my core memories in @africa - watching

Another street portrait in @Africa - Our "home base" for most of the trip was outside of the capital city of Lusaka. This was a construction site for a church that is being built - and currently the "pews" are rows of cinder block

I took SOOOO many photos while in @Africa (over 17,000), so I'm back to posting them...

Tree of Life Village near Lusaka at least has a deep well with clean water (now) - many villages don't. These w

Fashion campaign for @avirex_us by photographer @adamweiss.studio in maybe 2005 and retouched by me #fashionadvertising #fashion @methodmanofficial

@pieter_m_van_hattem photo that I retouched for him for Spin Magazine in 2003 #magazinecover #shotonfilm

Still shot on film in 2002, shot by @jeanbernardvillareal and retouched by me for Vogue en Español magazine #shotonfilm #retouching #fashion #magazinecover #fashionphotography

this is the very first magazine cover I retouched for - @archimagazine in 1999 (I worked for Shoot Digital NYC - I'm sorry I don't know who the photographer is but will update if I find out). Learned a lot since then! #shotonfilm #portrait #throwbac

This week is about some of the photographers that I've had the privilege to #retouch for - props to @cheshirepictures for his cover and story for Noi.se Magazine, around 2003 I think. #shotonfilm #fashion #fashionphotography

free range chicken - village outside of Lusaka, Zambia (not on a safari, this is more like #streetphotography and the villages just have them running around. Not sure if for food, pets, eggs??) #chickens #chickensofzambia @africa #goldenhourphotograp

Street Photos - These guys were playing around- or wrestling. But still all smiles. Village near Lusaka, Zambia #streetportrait #streetphotography #streetphoto #portrait @africa

Street Portrait - I could take photos of the kids there ALL DAY, they were so much fun! Village near Lusaka, Zambia #streetportrait #streetphotography #streetphoto #portrait @Africa

Street scene from a commune in Lusaka, Zambia, Africa. This seemed to be a fairly typical scene with kids looking after kids. @africa #lusaka #streetphotography #wanderlust #travelphotography

traditional ways of carrying water - before AND after the well. But at least after the clean well is ready, it will be a shorter walk AND won't potentially cause illness #cleanwater #africa #chibombo @living_water @africa @liquidchurch

with Living Water in the Chibombo region - until you are somewhere that doesn't have running water its hard to imagine the experience - the village on had a small well that was hand dug and is generally unsafe to drink - @living_water helps dig clea

in Chibombo this little girl was really curious, and hovered around watching us all for quite a while (and the drill isn't a totally exact science, it took a while to hit clean water) #cleanwater #drilling #africa #chibombo @africa @liquidchurch @liv
