A British-Kenyan photojournalist, artist, and artist in the early 90’s is one of the reasons Ia so drawn to photography. He was killed in Somalia while working as a photojournalist for Reuters, but accomplished much more than many can say in their career in his 23 years. Not only did he produce impactful images, but he left behind a series of journals from his life and travels that were beautifully designed and are more than journals but art. His mother ended up creating a legacy for her son and his story through the movie The Journey is the Destination which depicted his life and I can say in confidence, changed my life. Not only did he risk his life to share the story of others, but he lost it and that makes his images and work that much more impactful.
