My Local Newsstand

San Salvador, El Salvador - The idea of this project was to document how El Salvador was covering the Honduran coup chaos. 

My intention was to walk to the neighborhood newsstand every morning and take a picture of the front page.  Because I was unable to do this every day it became more of an A-1 project.

For your reading pleasure I took the liberty to translate the lead headline.

Spa Ixchel

Copan Ruinas, Honduras - My wife and I were asked to help promote Spa Ixchel.  The spa is smack dab in the heart of an organic coffee farm. 

One picture was even picked up by Central America’s version of Women’s Health.

The Future of the World Cup

Copan Ruinas, Honduras - I have always wanted to do this:  to go to some remote barrio and take soccer portraits.  I wish I could take every team's photo.
