These projects have been revived, and I’m committed to seeing them through. They remain works in progress, with new energy driving their completion through the summer of 2025.

Caregivers: Photo-essay

Photo-essay Hawk Buckman - July 3, 2024

This essay's objective is to produce a story that details the hardships faced by family members who provide care and quality of life for over 90 million Americans who tend to loved ones with chronic conditions, disabilities, diseases, or the challenges of old age. This project will focus on individuals sacrificing their lives to care for those who can no longer care for themselves. Its goal is to trigger a conversation, shedding light on the challenges family caregivers face for the elderly and those with chronic illnesses.

W. Eugene "Gene" Smith, the father of the photo-essay, and a distinguished artist whose photography and storytelling have left an indelible mark on the worlds of documentary photography, photojournalism and art. Gene Smith was not only a master of his craft but also a profound source of inspiration for many, including us.

Robert 'Bob' Capa , the visionary behind the establishment of Magnum Photos, stands as a profound source of inspiration for many in the realm of photography. Renowned for his direct yet impactful shooting style, Capa identified himself as a newspaperman, a testament to his commitment to capturing and conveying the raw essence of real-life moments.

Tragically, Capa's illustrious career came to an untimely end in Vietnam on May 25, 1954, when he stepped on a land mine. His legacy lives on, not only through his iconic photographs but also through the indomitable spirit he exhibited in the face of danger, inspiring generations of photographers to follow in his footsteps.
