Photojournalist Pieter Ten Hoopen has worked around the world for Le Monde, The New Yorker, The New York Times Magazine and international aid organizations. “When it comes to my documentary projects, I like to do portraits because it gives me a great opportunity — in Nepal or Sudan or Sierra Leone — to have a meeting with people and slow down, to observe the tiny details,” he says.
