However, few tend to be outstanding at what they are doing. To be outstanding, one has to be quite creative, hard working and knows how to handle a camera, have a keen and focused eye for detail.
On this piece, we will focus on the young upcoming visual creators in Kenya. The passion in what they execute is not only visual but transits the viewer to thinking or interpreting the message they are trying to put across.
Different photographers have different niche's they focus on from portraits, events, Afro-futurism, travel, food etc.
As the saying goes 'A picture is worth a thousand words'. I mean we got to give credit where due. Meet them below.
- Osbrone Macharia
I would place him as the King of visual creators. He is a well known commercial photographer and digital artist.
From being a jury member at the One Show / ACD Awards, one of the most prestigious advertising awards in the world, working with Oprah Winefry TV for show Queen Sugar, to being commissioned by Marvel, his work has featured on different international publications; Marie Claire Netherlands, Vogue,to work on Wakanda Art Work which I must say was super impressive.
Together with the super talented stylist Kevo Abbra they have taken Afro futurism culture to a whole other level. He has worked on different major projects, with a reason and message for every project he partakes, Osbrone keeps being an inspiration to many and putting Kenya and Africa at the top of the map in the industry.
