This photograph was taken at the tabernacle of a small Rastafarian family living in the mountainous area of Wellington, at the extreme top of the hill in Freetown. It is a place most people in the city have never seen. I was there on a Saturday morning, documenting the family as part of ‘The Keepers’, an ongoing documentary photography project that follows their life across seasons.

This photo was shot in Argungu town, Kebbi State, Nigeria during the 61st Argungu International Fishing and Cultural Festival. During the fishing event which lasts for one hour, any fisherman that catches a reasonably large fish immediately comes out of the river with it for scaling because there is a prize for the heaviest fish caught.

This is one of those photos that has many layers to it. It is saying and expressing a lot. From the unknown, faceless man and his body language to where he is pictured. And I loved that partially pictured white car with a touch of pink rims.

I photographed this in Mararaba Market, Nasarawa, Nigeria. I went fabric shopping and after combing through the wooden stalls on muddy ground, I found a father and daughter duo with the variety of fabric I needed. Purchasing a fabric is not something you do in a hurry. So, while I sat on the wooden bench, waiting, I took the picture.

I chose this photograph because it captures a quiet moment of spiritual journey and daily life at Debre Libanos Monastery in the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. What drew me to the scene was the contrast between the vast landscape and the small white figures climbing the mountain early in the morning. I was interested in the feeling of silence, devotion, and movement within the landscape, and I felt this moment expressed that naturally.

The photo was taken in August 2023 along Lake Bosomtwe in the Ashanti region of Ghana. I was holidaying with friends at a resort along the lake. Hours before I took the photo, a fisherman from the community had come by on a wooden raft to harvest fish, young tilapia. Our friend Kelechi and his dogs Whiskey and Simba had also spent time swimming in the water.

This image was taken in Yaba. I captured it during one of my walks. It wasn’t planned as a photo walk. I usually carry my camera with me wherever I go, so I stay open to moments as they come.

I took this photo at Eid Al-Fitr 2025 at the Dolphin Hotel, Mogadishu, designed in a vernacular style to be viewed from the ocean. Somalia has the longest coast in Africa, and Mogadishu has a great share of beautiful beaches, which serve as recreational escapes where residents go to ease their minds.

This photograph was taken in the Draa Valley near Assa town southern Morocco during the February of 2025. Assa is a city in the southeastern Sahara near the Algerian border.
