Goodbye Quito

I’m at the Quito airport, about to head back to NYC, but I thought I would post the unedited final images from my story with Veronica De La Cruz.  I really have to say that it was a special experience to be let in on some intimate family moments all in the course of only 4 days of shooting.  The other treat in Quito was being teamed with Alejandro Reinoso, a photojournalist.  He is an amazing photographer.  I plan to share his work from the last week; a great story that he chose about the parallels of adoption.  And as soon as I edit it, I will post the interview I conducted with Alejandro and his fiancée, Soledad, a fashion photographer.

I’ll be posting Alejandro’s work and some other things from Quito soon!
