POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

It is incredibly meaningful to see my work on girls in Uttarakhand, and how the water crisis affects their lives, published in 1843 magazine by @theeconomist, beautifully edited by @krishnasheth. Words by Bathsheba Brook.

I am deeply grateful to see these stories and experiences reach a wider audience, and to contribute to a broader conversation around gender, water, climate change and everyday life in the region.

Just as the distinctive tinny sound of Match of the Day fades out there is one, then three, all of a sudden a crowd. They seem to appear as if by magic. Waiting patiently on the terraced cobbled street they gaze in anticipation at the extensive and inviting menu in the window. What will it be…a 99 perhaps, raspberry sauce, or possibly a solero? LIFE IN THE CANARIES is my latest photo series focusing on a tight knit community in the heart of Deepdale. The area is affectionately known locally as the Canary Islands because the streets are named after birds.

Proof that it takes me a year to post about my work (and that I’m bad at IG).

Last year, I went on one of my favorite assignments: Documenting the return of Syrians to their coastline after the fall of the Assad regime. Nothing says freedom like enjoying a day at the beach or a cold watermelon. As a bonus, I drove from Beirut to Tartous to Lattakia, without leaving the Mediterranean.

Thanks to the amazing team @heidipett_ and @la_vazzz and to @krishnasheth for the trust.

🎙️CatchLight and The Ian Parry Photojournalism Grant Present: When Seeing Might Not Be Believing, truth, trust and the future of visual journalism

Saturday 16th May 2026, 6:30–7:30pm @photolondonfair

A panel conversation with Ari Abelson, Krishna Sheth and Anastasia Taylor-Lind, moderated by Emma Blau FRSA, with an introduction by Erica Garber. The discussion addresses how visual journalism operates under increasing pressure from AI-generated imagery, accelerated news cycles and declining public trust, focusing on the processes of selection, verification and authorship in contemporary editorial practice.

The talk brings together perspectives from photojournalism, picture editing and AI development to consider how authenticity is defined and maintained across global news reporting, alongside the institutional and ethical frameworks shaping the field.

Photographs for @theeconomist accompanying writer Jack Shenker smart analysis of the rise of Reform politics amongst the rich and working class. We spent three days at the Talbot in Blackpool, Britain’s first self-styled Reform pub, to try to understand the point of view of potential voters.

A complex subject and difficult to articulate visually. Minus the teal branding, this club isn’t any different to the working men’s clubs I grew up with or that my parents still frequent. Some decent people, some politics that in no way align with my own.

Images from the edit and some of my favourite outtakes.

Thank you @hb__________

“It’s right here, where the cold, hard practicalities of economic insecurity get tangled up with something fuzzier—nostalgia, resentment and a sense of loss—that Reform’s messaging hits home. In contrast with the pallid, technocratic diagnoses offered by Britain’s main political parties, Reform has articulated people’s grievances with a bluntness that resonates.”

Some more images + outtakes from @theeconomist story with Jack Shenker. Don’t forget to #vote

@adambirkan traveled to Laos to photograph Khamphat Paneboun for @theeconomist feature “The Deported,” written by @timothymclaughlin46 The article examines the deportation of Paneboun, a Texas father of four, and his life after being detained and removed from the United States following a routine immigration check-in.

In Vientiane, Laos, Adam spent a day with Paneboun in his new home and neighborhood on the city’s rural outskirts. Paneboun, a former child refugee whose family resettled in America over 30 years ago, had never left the United States before his deportation to Laos, a country he had never been to.

Adam’s photographs ground the piece in Khamphat Paneboun’s lived reality. Moving through neighborhood streets and quiet interiors, his images reveal the tension of a life caught between two places. With a documentary approach, Adam captures the daily rhythms and place that shape Khamphat’s life away from his family in America.

Part one (portraits) - For the @theeconomist last month - “In May last year, somewhere over the Pacific, Khamphat Paneboun became a man without a country. Paneboun, a 43-year-old from Amarillo, Texas, was an involuntary passenger on a charter flight as it headed westwards from Guam. It was the first time he had been outside America since arriving in Sacramento, California, as a child refugee in 1990. His hands and feet were shackled together. He was about to be dumped in Laos, a country he had never been to.”
