Brendan Bannon, a photojournalist from Buffalo, N.Y., traveled to the Zaatari refugee camp situated north of Jordan to teach of all things, photography.

His students ranged from age 10 to 20 but they all brought a unique view of the life of a refugee today.

They were aged beyond their years, carrying with them the memories and sometimes the emblems of past lives.
