MY STORY
I came to South Africa to be a volunteer in the marketing & design department of the Ukuphumelela Trust and MDP. I was going to help build the brand. Once I got to Cape Town I quickly noticed a lack of good quality pictures. Almost no footage existed of the former MDP students and the children they worked with. To be fair, most former students where there to help with sports. I suggested to bring my camera to Khayelitsha one day to shoot the social media and website content we needed. And that’s what I did. I loved Khayelitsha so much that I started coming back every week.
