Project: Pictures for Life..some background info



In order to generate additional income for the communities which the Centre for Social Development (CSD) works alongside with, I have initated this project which I have named:
Project: Pictures for Life.

The aim of this project is to channel profit or financial support, initiated by these photographs, back to the Grahamstown community, aiding further development projects. My images reflect and explain certain moments in people’s lives and the focuse on the development projects initiated by the Centre for Social Development.

Ultimately, this project is my way of giving something back to the community, in return for providing insight into their lives and the initiatives of which they are a part.

In further collaboration, B&H Photo Digital support the high quality printing of the photographs. Each print is limited to be reproduced 28 times as a 10x15" print.

If you would like to encourage others to support this initiative by ordering photographs, please contact me.
