Via CNN.com: While visiting her parents’ homeland of Lebanon, photojournalist Natalie Naccache noticed most families had a maid who assumed many household roles: cook, housekeeper, mother, nurse. She says the maid culture is embedded in the Lebanese way of life, which is why she chose to capture it in her photo essay “No, Madam.” Natalie Naccache is a British-Lebanese photographer based in Beirut. She is currently a Reportage Emerging Talent. See more of her work on the Reportage Web site. Caption: Miles takes dishes back to the kitchen. The 25-year-old Filipina said she is “so happy” working at the family home and feels lucky to have such a job.  (Photo by Natalie Naccache)

Full Video: “God’s Ivory”

This is the full 14-minute version of “God’s Ivory,” a film by Reportage by Getty Images that examines the illegal ivory trade and the religious devotion that fuels it. Filmmaker Andrew Hida collaborated with photographer Brent Stirton and writer Bryan Christy to elaborate on the award-winning report the pair originally made for National Geographic in 2012. See more from this feature in the latest issue of Reportage’s online magazine.

The Russian region of Dagestan has received attention in American media in recent days as the former home of Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the brothers suspected of the Boston marathon bombings. Tamerlan reportedly spent six months in Dagestan’s capital, Makhachkala, in 2012, a trip that is receiving intense scrutiny as investigators try to understand why he and his brother might have carried out the Boston attack. While their motivations remain largely opaque, Dagestan has proved to be fertile ground for a strain of fundamentalist Islam in recent years, according to the photographer Maria Turchenkova, a Reportage Emerging Talent who is working on a photoessay about life in Dagestan. See photos from her series, “Hidden War,” on the Reportage Web site. We’d also like to congratulate Maria on her admission to this year’s Joop Swart Masterclass. UPDATE: Time LightBox published a gallery of Maria’s work yesterday. See it here. (Photo by Maria Turchenkova)

Trailer: “God’s Ivory”

“The ivory trade of today is all about power and elitism,” says Reportage photographer Brent Stirton. Together with filmmaker Andrew Hida, Mr. Stirton and National Geographic contributing writer Bryan Christy examine the institutions that continue to sustain the world ivory trade. A trailer is above and the full 14-minute video can be seen in the latest issue of Reportage’s online magazine.

Mr. Stirton continues:

With the main product, religious icons, being traded for huge sums there’s a lot at stake. And it goes all the way to the top. There’s massive corruption and yet, because it’s a matter of religion, it’s not being challenged.

It seems that some people of religion have placed devotion ahead of decimation. They’re putting vanity ahead of the consequences. And surely that’s against the central tenets of all scripture?

In the summer of 2012 we printed the first Reportage Magazine, which showcased the wonderful and inspiring work of the talented photographers we represent. We have now released the second issue, along with a full multimedia version of “God’s Ivory,” by Brent Stirton.

Reportage Magazine is accompanied by an online version available on the Reportage website. We are proud to pay tribute to the photographers we work with, to recognise their talent, to put a spotlight on them and to tell the stories about the genesis and creation of their work.

All too often the dedication and commitment of these extraordinary people is overlooked and the personal hardship and risks they undertake in order to create their stories is dismissed and taken for granted.

Please join us in celebrating their creativity and passion and congratulating them on their marvelous achievements.

Best Wishes,

Yesterday’s news of a deadly building collapse near Dhaka, Bangladesh, comes five months after a horrific fire at similar facility, which also housed factories making clothing for European and American consumers. The earlier incident, in which over 100 people died in a blaze at Tazreen Fashions Limited, inspired photographer Abir Abdullah to document the dangerous working conditions in Bangladesh’s garment industry. In March, his project, “The Deadly Cost of Cheap Clothing,” was awarded the Alexia Foundation professional grant to help him continue this work.

Read more about Abir’s project on the Alexia Foundation’s Web site.

“Currently one rhinoceros is killed by poachers every 16 hours in South Africa,” writes National Geographic reporter Peter Gwin. Over the last three years, more than a thousand of the animals have been slaughtered. In response, police gunned down 22 poachers and arrested more than 200 last year. At the bloody heart of this conflict is the rhino’s horn, a prized ingredient in traditional Asian medicines. Though black market prices vary widely, as of last fall dealers in Vietnam quoted prices ranging from $33 to $133 a gram, which at the top end is double the price of gold and can exceed the price of cocaine. Today, the Overseas Press Club of America announced that this story, “Rhino Wars,” earned Mr. Gwin and Reportage photographer Brent Stirton the Whitman Bassow award for environmental reporting. Read the full story on the National Geographic Web site and see more of Mr. Stirton’s photos here.

‘I would die for Rangers. I really would die for them. If you told me I could see them win the Champions League, and then I’d have 24 hours to get drunk and enjoy it, but then at the end of that extra day I had to die, I’d do it.’

Supporters of Glasgow Rangers FC display a passion not often seen in the sporting world, but their loyalty was tested last season as the club found itself stuck in Scottish football’s lowest professional division. The demotion, due largely to financial mismanagement, did not deter avid fans, who set new attendance records for the 3rd division.
