“For the nonprofit IntraHealth International, which has worked in more than 100 countries. Christopher Wilson brought me along as a second shooter on the assignment. Our goal was to create dignified, compelling and empathetic portraits of locals who come to the clinics and the other services IntraHealth funds. One of the things we did was set up simple white and black backgrounds for the subjects, which Christopher and I would trade between. This portrait was taken in Ethiopia. We traveled all over Ethiopia and Rwanda, including an adventurous side trip to hike the dense mountain jungle to see the giant silverback gorillas.”
