Kisumu is my home. It is where both my father and mother grew up. "Dala" is a Luo term that means home. Every year, my family and I, both extended and nuclear, make it a point to get together and celebrate Christmas in the countryside.
Check out a few of the pictures I was able to capture during my stay.

On this trip, I was shooting with my Olympus OM-1n and Kodak Colorplus ISO 200 Film.


I really wanted to capture pictures that acted as memories to me. I wanted to be able to look back at the picture and have a certain moment in time spark up, but at the same time, I wanted to take pictures that reminded me of the importance of family and the joy that it brings.

These are my cousins Sam, Audrey and Dave. They were so eager to have their picture taken that, they barely noticed when I had clicked the shutter.

Sam really enjoyed the balloons that they blew up on Christmas Eve.

My older cousin J.J really loves the Sunsets in Kisumu.

I really had the best time in Kisumu this year, and definitely cannot wait for the next time!
