This subject was more than happy to take a few practice photos with me.
Hanging out with a long time friend at the mall for a great photo opportunity.
Local clothing shop owner I worked with for great photos to use for her Instagram account.
I took a lot of good shots working with my neighbor during this shoot. He was very professional!
I just happened to walk by seeing him and a friend taking pictures of each other. Asked them if they wanted free photos and they were more than happy to help.
This photo was taken during the evening on a walking trail. We got the angle by her standing on a cement barrier. My vision of portrait photography in Africa is all about natural tones and vibrant colors. When editing portraits for clients I don't want to make anything look unnatural or fake because I see each subject as how they are. Everyone was kind enough to help me practice (and getting free images in return) so I made sure to take my time with each shot. I lack a studio or extra photography equipment but I will always do the best.
