Images without Borders

January 30, 2010

By now we have all seen the pictures, we’ve all heard the stories, both extraordinary and heartbreaking, coming out of the earthquake in Haiti on January 12th. Through my own heartache for the plight of the several thousands affected and my own desire to help those who are putting their own lives aside to help strangers in need, I have the honor of joining many amazing photographers in a project called Images without Borders. All the proceeds, minus a small printing fee, for select, limited edition fine art prints will got to Doctors without Borders. Here’s more from the website:

This project emerged because of the crisis in Haiti, but has taken on a larger life. Because of our affiliation with Doctors without Borders, we plan to continue our support as future crises emerge and daily work continues for those who suffer around the world. Buyers receive a stunning art print from a premier world photographer and their contribution goes directly to the places that need it most. Each print is offered from Images without Borders at a limit of ten before being pulled from the collection and returned to the artist. This long-term project aids Doctors without Borders in their efforts on the ground in Haiti and the world.

Below are a selection of photographs I have contributed, that you may purchase right now through the Images without Borders website. I have also contributed several iphoneography photos from my recent Project 365, also shown below. Take a few minutes to check out the IWOB website and view the many AMAZING photographs that have been donated. Remember, though, these are limited edition prints, so you better hurry!!

iPhone Photos

I have started a new photography project: to take and post one photo each day in 2010 taken with my iPhone. I’ve always wanted to do a 365, but the thought of carrying around my big dslr, finding something to shoot, processing, and posting everyday… OH and also working, raising a child, being a wife and all that life in general entails, seemed way too daunting. I do however carry my iPhone with me everywhere and have really enjoyed experimenting with its on board camera and processing. So my first project 365 will be with my iPhone. I am very excited about this project. With each project I do, I always grow and learn so much. I’ll be posting this iphoneography project on my daily photo blog, or you can follow me of twitter, where I’ll be tweeting about them. Business as usual will of course continue concurrent to this new project and I have MANY new plans for 2010 and beyond that I am way excited about! Happy New Year!!

Here is Day 1.
