Here's some background quoted from the site:
For eight years,
Daniel Epstein, a Marketing Director at one of the world’s largest
corporations, Procter & Gamble, has been travelling the world for business
and for faith. Motivated by his own search to fill the "God-sized
hole" in his life, he did not know where it would lead. He felt that if he
did not develop some type of spiritual faith he would die. Born and raised a
Jew, Daniel’s challenges with relationships, work, and "life" forced
him at age 36 to get on his knees and pray to a God he did not know, a higher
power not specific to either his own Judaism or any religion, and ask for help.
In order to keep his new found sense of faith alive and to gain from the
experience of others, Daniel created a spiritual exercise out of interviewing
people around the world about the role of faith in their lives. As a
photographer, Daniel also captured a moment with each person in a black and
white portrait meant to evoke their true spirit.
Portraits in Faith
is not about religion. It is about documenting the role of spiritual experience
inside and outside of formal religion, expected and unexpected, told in
people’s own words, and brought to life with video and photography. The message
of Portraits In Faith is that despite all the negative press on faith in the
world today, faith is a powerful healer, transformer, and changer of lives. The
overriding message is that however one calls God (Jesus, Buddha, Allah, Higher
Power, The Divine, Creative Intelligence…) there is a greater force that
connects us all and it is good for each person to find a path that leads to a
faith that works for them.
