I’m inspired by human interaction, what makes people fall in love, and honest storytelling.

My work is a blend of photojournalism and art.

Situated in northern Thailand, Eden House girl’s home provides a safe, nurturing and peaceful atmosphere for some very special little women. In Thailand, girls from tribal villages without citizenship are considered members of the lowest caste of society. Without documents, it’s difficult for the girls to live a normal life. Documents are necessary for getting a job, going to school and other everyday tasks. They’re left with few options, and the most grim of those include working for the black market sex industry. Eden House provides an alternative.
