Long lines during early midterm elections voting in Wake County, North Carolina. Shot for @afpphoto 26 Oct 2026

Dakota West (@dakotacofficial ) is one of the plaintiffs suing Kansas over a new law that forced about 1,700 trans and intersex residents to give up driver’s licenses matching their gender identity, bars them from bathrooms that align with it, and offers a $1,000 bounty to anyone who reports a violation. Dakota, who is intersex, was harassed at work, paused her nursing classes, and eventually moved to Tennessee after the law took effect. Now she’s testifying in court in hopes of getting her license back. Shot for the @washingtonpost 25 Oct 2026

I pitched this story to the AP about the PVC pipe still choking the French Broad River after Hurricane Helene. I shot it over several months and helped report it alongside the wonderful Tammy Webber. Huge thanks to photo editor Alyssa Goodman, whose eye and support made this work so much stronger. Two years after the storm, crews are still pulling hundreds of thousands of PVC pipes out of the river. The pipes washed away from IPEX’s factory in Woodfin, and in some stretches they make up as much as 80% of the debris, tangled in logjams two stories high and breaking down into microplastics. MountainTrue ( @mtntrue ) has spent about 50,000 work-hours and over $1.5 million on pipe removal alone, and IPEX has now agreed to put $500,000 toward the cleanup. Even so, crews say some of that pipe will never come out of the river. 19 Oct 2026

In late September I drove deep into the mountains in Western North Carolina to a vigil along the Toe River, marking two years since Hurricane Helene devastated the region. It was organized by Christy Thrift of @ncoutdooradventures , the third one she’s done. She continues to show up for her community, making sure these anniversaries, and the people they lost, aren’t forgotten. The evening began with a community dinner, followed by the vigil and a small gathering afterward. Brian Gurl, Craig Zeigler and Melissa Truesdale, musicians with ties to Lenny Widawski (whose remains still haven’t been recovered) and to the community, played. There were prayers, candles and tears by the river. Lenny Widawski’s wife, Peggy, and dear friends shared memories and songs about him. and standing by the Toe River while they spoke about him was something I won’t forget. It was a beautiful, heartbreaking, and deeply moving night. Photos Allison Joyce/Getty Images 08 Oct 2026

Two years ago, Hurricane Helene tore through Western North Carolina. Biblical is still the only word I have for what I saw. Homes, roads, communities were swept away. People told me about bodies found in trees. While I was covering the recovery, I noticed a pattern: military veterans from across the country were showing up and having an outsize impact. They were running supplies by ATV and helicopter to cut-off communities, evacuating people, cutting firewood for the winter, and searching for the missing. “This is what we do when we go to war,” Army veteran Mark Elkhill of the Christian Rangers told me. “The only difference is we’re not getting shot at here.” For many veterans, the hardest part of leaving the service is losing the purpose and camaraderie that came with it. In these mountains, a lot of them found pieces of it again. My story on them ran in The Washington Post, but so much didn’t make it in. This post features Steven Santos of @savagefreedomsops .

Scenes from the G20. For @afpphoto 02 Sep 2026

Wesley Potter fishes for shrimp on Jones Bay in North Carolina. Potter, 65, has been fishing since he was 8 years old and is a 3rd generation fisherman. Rising diesel fuel prices in North Carolina are forcing local seafood businesses to cut back on trips, WECT News reports. For @bloomberg 15 Aug 2026

Recent work for the @washingtonpost - a story I pitched and got to work on with the brilliant writer @bradyd13 . At the WNC Repair Cafe in Weaverville, volunteers gather to fix whatever neighbors bring in - sewing machines, clocks, bikes, lawnmowers - keeping items out of landfills while building community. Dan Hettinger started it in the days after Hurricane Helene battered these mountains in 2024, rallying volunteer mechanics, electricians and sewers to help people who’d lost so much, and he’s kept it going ever since On one summer evening, 85 items came through the door, and most went home working again. 26 Jul 2026
