How Long Have You Been Photographing Weddings For And How Did You Get Into It?

I started 8 years ago. I first began by writing wedding stories. Then, wanting to delve deeper into the stories of couples, I started photographing weddings.

What Do You Particularly Like About Photographing Weddings?

Weddings are special because they are the result of deep love between two people, and that’s what I like most about them. Additionally, the guests, friends, and relatives make this day more delightful with their laughter, emotions, and jokes.

What Is Your Favorite Part Of The Day?

There are many moments that I like in a wedding, but one of my favorites is the dance of the bride and her father. Most of the time, it is very emotional, and I think it is at that moment that the father realizes he is giving his precious daughter to her husband.

How Would You Describe Your Style And Approach?

My style is reportage but with a touch of elegance. My assistant and I aim to capture every moment of a wedding, emphasizing the elegance and beauty of the day.

Who, Or What Inspires You?

I think about the love between the couple. That’s why I like to get to know them even before the wedding, sometimes through a video call.

In Kenya! I love that place. It’s my origin, and in some way, I feel a bond with this place.

One of the best moments is when, at the end of the day, a couple hugs me and expresses their appreciation for how my staff and I worked on their wedding. Sometimes, we cry tears of happiness together.
