Soup ad

After long hours and hardship in the studio shooting my 4X5 soup ad finally on the third atempt I did and this is how its going to look.

We are of the same

WE ARE OF THE SAME

Just because I speak different language from yours

smell different senses,aromas

have a darker skin tone

More tolerant and appreciative

raised from a different childhood

walk my own unique walk

I know what I want

I know why I am here

I am no different from you

NO i have no limited level of thinking;

I lived in the past

tried to drag myself to the present

I failed to live in the future

in the future because;

I am in such misery ;I don't see open doors to my future

you are not different from me

we all have red blood,

we both have eyes and ears

a brain to think ,to analyze and to understand

we both have same features

Yes we may eat food that is not of the same,

but yes we are equal,have feelings ,strengths and weaknesses:

You are so selfish and self-full

so stubborn you don't even want to know me.

you are so mean and bitter

you judge me by the tone of my voice

you judge me by the darkness of my beautifully dark skin

I am not here because it was my dream ,

but it is my life now ;so why don't you accept it

because we are both human beings

a percular nation

created by one God

JESUS CHRIST !!!

ONE OF MY FAVORATE VERSES

You know when you have one of those days where yo feel so down and broken .Well this is one of the bible verses that pick me up and give hope that everything is going to be ok.

THE WAY EYE CEE THE WORD

One may not have one way of seeing things around them ,I have tried to depict ideas or things that I see in the world in one image .The cracks and storms in the image for me represent all the negativity around me .The kiwi fruit in the iris shows that irregardless of all the storms and pitfalls life may throw at you but there is still positivity in that storm .

Tacky eye

 I did not know what to do with this eye .I was not thinking when I did it but somewhere along the process of doing it I thought of playing around with colors and this was the final product .I call it tacky because it has a lot of colors .

MY FIRST FASHIO ON LOCATION

Here are some of the shots I did in first year .Have a look and tell me what do you think and please bear in mind that it was my first time attempting fashion on location.

My type of photography is documentary photography and fashion on location .I have decided to specialize in these two because I love being outdoors and photographing things the way they are with no photoshop enhancement .I do not like to tell people what to do especially in documentary , it is about telling the story of every day lives of disadvantaged people .I want them to know that there is someone who cares about them even if they are poor,sick whatever the circumstances they have and that person is God .I feel that they need someone whom they can trust or put their hopes on.

fashion on location I believe is a way of showing my artistic side where i can get a chance to do weird things ,like putting a lot of make up on a model and dressing them in a unique and agey way at a not so familiar location .
