30 JORDANIANS WHO ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE



I haven't had a moment to myself since returning from Ethiopia. Al-Sijill magazine is celebrating 30 Jordanians who are making a difference in this months issue. I'm shooting all 30! It almost seems like some sort of photographic game show. I am dropped off in front of a building, am told the first name of the person I am to shoot, and then I have 30 minutes to find them, select a location, set up lights, and take the portrait. It is mentally and physically exhausting working at a rate of about five per day. These are a few of my favorites; an activist dentist, a police radio dj, and the owner of a small theatre. The cover will be a collage of all 30. Coming soon.
