In celebration of Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month, AAJA recognized a dozen Asian American photojournalists throughout the month of May.
We asked aspiring and award-winning photographers to reflect on their careers and share some of their best work.
Whether they are parachuting into war zones or documenting local communities, check out the stunning photos taken by AAJA photographers from around the world.
