Caught in Nepal is a photography book that documents the daily lives of Tibetan refugees stranded in Nepal. The photographs were taken exclusive by Tibetan refugees. 

The first step of the project began three years ago, when I traveled to the settlement camps and distributed ten inexpensive digital cameras. None of the recipients had ever owned cameras and only three exhibited any knowledge or experience with photographic equipment. Expertise was far less important to me than my volunteers' daily access to the economic, social and spiritual challenges encountered by the Tibetan Diaspora.
