Steve Barrett photographed these orphans in 1992 on a trip to Bucharest, Romania where he taught photography in an orphanage filled to capacity. His objective was to empower these "charming, troubled, attention-starved children and show the world through their eyes." This August, Steve will travel to Mozambique to teach photography to orphans with AIDS who are raising their younger siblings. He’ll be better equipped this time around–his 12 year old son, Max will be with him. Read about the children Steve and Max will visit.

An outtake from one of George’s calendar shoots.

George Contorakes–NPN photographer based in Miami, Florida–is now one of our clients. Thanks to his entrepreneurial spirit, George’s client got the best of all worlds. One of his long-standing calendar projects for an industrial equipment client expanded into a global endeavor and in order to meet his client’s needs, George contacted NPN. "The client had to shoot many locations with several shoots going on at the same time. I knew that time and budget wouldn’t allow me to travel to Russia, China and India while I was shooting at locations throughout the US, Mexico and Canada. Working with other NPN photographers, I was able to get the job done, manage the creative cohesiveness and deliver a solid group of images." Click here to see more of George’s industrial work.
