Traveling to Haiti

passport
This time next week, I will be in Port au Prince. I will be there for 5 days with Kids Against Hunger, documenting as they give out food and clean water. This organization has delivered nutritious meals to over 60 countries since it was founded [1999], with over 10 million meals delivered to Haiti since the devastating earthquake. While there we will also visit some of their churches and orphanages. This will be quite an experience, as I have not been out of the country in almost 15 years. Also, Haiti is what's considered an LDC, or Least Developed Country, which ranks it below the standards of the 3rd-world classification. The average native lives on about $50USD per month.

If you would like to donate to a trusted company (tax-deductible), check out the Kids Against Hunger website.

I recently wrapped a Photoshoot with model/dancer Chelsey Fatula. Some may recognize her as "Lil Hood" from VH1's For the Love of Ray J. Super cool to work with and awesome friend!

Photoshoot - Sam Flax/Nelquan's Barbershop

Just to get caught up, one of my favorite shoots last year (last month) was at Nelquan's Barbershop. Not only is it authentic, but the owner is a great guy and used to cut the hair of one of the models parents. The shots were used to establish an Art Director's portfolio for a local client. Above is one of my favorite shots, though I am not sure which images were actually chosen. Nelquan's Barbershop is located at the intersection of Colonial Drive and Hwy 436 in Orlando, FL.
