Documentary Photography: Teru Kuwayama's Iraq & Afghanistan Photos

submitted by Advancing Your Photography on 08/06/14 1

We're near Stanford University with our guest, Teru Kuwayama, a veteran documentary photographer who frequently finds himself in the war zones of Iraq and Afghanistan. He has carved a nomadic path across Asia and the Middle East, seeking out remote, undeveloped, and conflicted areas. His haunting photos of Iraq and Afghanistan are shot with, as he puts it, "semi functional Polaroids and toy cameras". Teru describes his experiences as an embedded photojournalist and some of his current projects dealing with conflict zones. His photography has been featured in a stream of publications including Outside, Newsweek, Fortune and The National Geographic. Teru's photographs have received numerous awards and citations, including grants from the Alexia Foundation for World Peace, and The New York Foundation for the Arts. He is presently on a John S. Knight Fellowship at Stanford.
