Hello. I'm Thomas. And this is what I've seen and heard.

Beautiful work of Jose Mandojana. Fantastic portraits and wonderful back stories. This one is of Lisa Hallett for Runner’s World. Lisa’s husband John and three of his fellow soldiers were killed in Afghanistan in August of 2009 by an IED. He never met his 3 week old girl and left behind two other children. Lisa organizes a group who “run to remember” their fallen loved ones.

Says Jose, “This portrait was made moments after Lisa began to cry as she spoke to me about her husband.”
