I have been re-studying the work of Sebastiao Salgado for weeks now, the beauty he creates, the human stories he tells, the importance of the work, all hit me face on every time I open his books.
My hope in the coming 20+ years is that I can tell a fraction of those stories and communicate a bit of that humanity as compared to Mr. Salgado. I so hope to be up to the task and up to the opportunities I am given. I owe such a debt to all those that allow me into their lives to make pictures, I hope I am worthy of that trust and hope I can communicate the important messages.
