Nairobi

By ctaylorphoto | Published: December 17, 2011
This was my third trip to the African continent in 6 months. I had spent a scant 30 hours in Cairo and an all too brief 10 days in Cape Town earlier in the year, but those places were not the Africa I had envisioned as a child. Sitting on the front porch of Jane [...]

My final BA flight

By ctaylorphoto | Published: March 13, 2011

  • About Me


    I am a photographer living in Westchester county, NY. I have been shooting commercial advertising for the past 20 years. I recently received a small business grant from British Airways. I won 10 business class flights to any 4 destinations that BA flies. It was a contest based on a series of essays that I wrote explaining how face to face travel could change my business and help it take a more photo journalistic path. My essays talked about the fact that I am a survivor of ovarian and endometrial cancers, and that since I have been sick, I have been looking for an opportunity to travel around the world documenting photographically how women with cancer are intrinsically connected. I would like to show how our struggles, hopes, joys, and concerns have no borders. That we share a common bond, regardless of where we live around the globe. This blog is hopefully going to document this journey over the next year.
