Meet Matt and Emily. They were one of the many amazing couples I had the privilege of meeting during my time in Malawi, Africa.
Matt has been serving in Africa for the past 8 years. Then came along Emily. And Matt was very happy.

It was such a joy to capture their joy.

This morning we witnessed the most interesting and beautiful rainfall sunrise.
It was glorious.

2012 is going to be a most wonderful year for weddings.

Although I am not a photojournalist, I am an artist. This is a personal photographic journal of a month spent amongst the beautiful people of Malawi.

I had the honor of building friendship with the folks at the Iris Ministries Base in Bangula, Malawi. This was a personal time of rest and relationship. I informally taught photography and music, and participated with aid work in the surrounding villages.

I have the utmost of admiration and respect for the folks I met along this journey. Iris is more of a family than an organization, and the work they do is amazing.

This is not a documentary of the work of Iris, however, as the warm light of an African sunrise cannot help but fill the valleys with it’s golden rays; the kindness of a good God working through the hands of Iris, cannot help but permeate these photographs. These are the faces, the places, and moments that linger in my heart and mind… Enjoy.
