Amanda is an internationally acclaimed photographer who has made it her mission to raise awareness by documenting some of the world’s more compelling issues. For over a decade she has combined her anthropology background with photographic and media-making skills to create inspiring media content as a means for powerful communication, storytelling and learning. In her new book, Can I Come with You? she documents how she uses her camera to document and bring awareness to the work of humanitarian relief organizations. Can I Come with You? and her book release event on September 18, 2008 are intended to encourage other photographers, both professional and amateur, to do the same. Can I Come with You? introduces the reader to the work being done at a pre-natal health clinic in the slums of Brazil and an AIDS orphanage in Kenya, and connects the reader with the active minds of Kenyan youth to whom Amanda taught photography. Can I Come with You then follows Amanda on tours of Romania, and Morocco, where she documents the “Moroccan Women’s Music Project: Voices of Women in Islam.”
