2011
2011 was an amazing year. I survived my first year living in New York City and actually made a living doing what I love. I picked up some great clients and finished off the year traveling to Egypt (which has been a lifelong dream of mine), Jordan, Malta, and Italy. Here are some of my favorite images and projects from 2011:
In early 2011, Egypt underwent a revolution, which resulted in the ousting of President Hosni Mubarak after nearly 30 years in power.
Protesters on Talaat Harb street in Cairo. The coffins represent people that have been killed during the protests.
The Great Pyramid of Giza is the oldest and largest of the three pyramids in the Giza Necropolis. It is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one to remain largely intact. Initially at 146.5 metres (480.6 ft), the Great Pyramid was the tallest man-made structure in the world for over 3,800 years.
Petra, Jordan
Bdoul Mofleh, one of the last residents of Petra. Asked why he didn’t leave when the rest of his family were relocated to Umm Sayhoun, he replied, ‘Why would I? This is my home; I’ve always lived here.’ I had the honor of having tea at his home on my birthday and he told me that he was born in one of the caves near his home.

Egypt, Jordan, Malta, and Italy
It has been one of my lifelong dreams to visit Egypt and I have finally done it. This was hands down one of the best trips of my life.
In early 2011, Egypt underwent a revolution, which resulted in the ousting of President Hosni Mubarak after nearly 30 years in power.

The ancient city of Petra, Jordan, one of the 7 Wonders of the World. UNESCO has described it as "one of the most precious cultural properties of man's cultural heritage". Petra was chosen by the BBC as one of "the 40 places you have to see before you die". It is famous for its rock cut architecture and water conduits system.
