Writivism Portraits

My good friend Brian Bwesigye runs a project called Writivism  under the Center For African Cultural Excellence (CACE) where he  identifies, trains and engages readers and writers in public discourse through literature. He asked me to take some portraits of the Writivism participants and this is what I came up with.

Portraits

Someday I want to be so good at Portraits that the photos I take will not need captions to tell their stories. I love smiles and I love telling a different story about Africa. I tell stories of poverty and pain but i also tell stories of Joy, happiness and hope. Now those are stories I want to keep telling and I think this is a start for me.
