Raising a Family Behind Bars: Inmates Families Move Into Prison After Typhoon Haiyan
A New York-based photographer journeyed to the Philippines to meet families who were forced to relocate to prison after Typhoon Yolanda left them homeless.
Lawrence Sumulong went to the Leyte Provincial Jail in April this year, to document the unusual situation where a large number of displaced families have been forced to move in with their incarcerated relatives.
At the Leyte Provincial Jail, women and children walk freely among inmates.
While most inmates claim to be serving time for petty crimes such as theft or drug trafficking, their photo releases reveal many more are actually serving time for more serious crimes.
Lawrence shot the moving series in one day, and assembled the photos in a moving photo series titled Raising a Family Behind Bars.
Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) cut across nine regions in the central Philippines on November 8, 2013, leaving behind a wide swath of destruction.
The storm was a category five, with wind gusts up to 235 miles per hour, causing massive landslides and flooding.
Over 14 million people were affected, including five million who saw their homes damaged or destroyed, while over 6000 people lost their lives.
Lawrence wanted to investigate what had happened to the people who were left with nothing after the typhoon, and in particular those who had no choice but to take refuge in prison.
"My assignment was to verify whether families of the inmates were continuing to live inside the destroyed jail, which was a story that journalist, Aya Lowe had originally broken.
"Leading up to my trip, there was news that access to the jail was restricted and the families had long since relocated."
Lawrence, who currently works as a photo editor at Jazz in the Lincoln Centre, explains: ...

ELVIS FAN TRAVELS THE WORLD
The ultimate Elvis Presley fan has spent the last nine months hip-shaking his way around the world dressed as his idol.
Matt Hale, 38, is wearing an Elvis-style white jumpsuit, bouffant wig and shades throughout his year-long trip around the globe to pay homage to the King.
Throughout his travels the radio producer from Welwyn Garden City in Hertfordshire has partied at Brazil's Carnaval, posed next to the Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro and trekked to the lost Inca city of Machu Picchu in Peru.
He has even gatecrashed Australia's biggest Elvis festival, where he came last in both the lookalike and soundalike contests.
"I love Elvis and when I saw the suit in a bargain shop I just had to buy it," said Matt.
"I thought wearing it round the world would be a good way to honour the King of Rock and Roll and it seems to have worked as I've attracted loads of attention."
But not everyone, it would seem, is an Elvis fan.
Matt has been thrown out of the Louvre in Paris for wearing the wrong dress code; asked to leave the lost Inca city of Machu Picchu after spending four days trekking there; and booted out of Evita's cemetery in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
"The security guards at the Louvre threw me out because I was wearing the Elvis suit and they said it wasn't suitable for the art gallery," he said.
"It seemed a bit unfair as I didn't see anything on the ticket about a dress code. They must have had Suspicious Minds."
Matt, who started his travels in January, has also been left All Shook Up on a number of occasions after being pick pocketed, having his credit cards stolen and finding an alligator o...
