I have found a new hero. A documentary photographer hero. Not one of the brave ones who go off to photograph wars or the brave ones who photograph demonstrations or the brave ones who photograph natural disasters. This photographer was brave by going back to the places and people where he grew up and telling their story.

ENGAGEMENT: NATHAN AND BEKAH

It was cold. Very cold. Colder than I thought it would be. That was the day Nathan and Bekah got engaged. Nathan asked me to be the hidden photographer when he asked Bekah to marry him.
