the peace project

What does it mean to be peace, to live your peaceā€¦ everyday? We will explore and document how people from all over the world plant the seeds of peace, joy and healing in their lives.

From Zen monks in Marin County, CA to a farmer in Costa Rica, to a spiritual healer in Bali, a yoga teacher in Brooklyn, a surfer in Australia, a mom in Kansas...

Initially I will photograph people who embody peace in their everyday lives such as Buddhist monks & spiritual teachers. This will be in a natural, documentary style.

Then set forth into the world to discover how a wide variety of people find and live their peace. Perhaps its through their work, their family life, their spiritual life, in nature, in retreat, in the middle of nyc, who knows! But we will find out.

When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace ~ Jimi Hendrix
