Join me at 12:00 EST on Tuesday, February 7th for a free virtual talk presented by The Photo Society. I'll be telling the story of my ten-year journey from fine-art photography into documentary and conservation, and sharing photos from the projects I've photographed along the way – many for National Geographic. Thanks to the folks at Epson, I'll also be giving away a signed print!

The talk is free and open to the public. Click here to register, and see you next Tuesday!
