 ABOUT ME.
"Hello everyone, my name is Arnold Okoth, and I am thrilled to share with
you my passion for photography. I am a documentary photographer
based in the vibrant city of Nairobi, Kenya. Through my lens, I capture
the world around me, weaving together stories and emotions in every
frame.
Photography has been my lifelong passion, and I find immense joy and
fulfillment in freezing moments that tell powerful narratives. I believe
that every photograph has the potential to convey a message, evoke
emotions, and shed light on different aspects of our society.
Living in Nairobi, a city teeming with diverse cultures, bustling markets,
breathtaking landscapes, and rich history, I am constantly inspired to
explore and capture the essence of this vibrant place. From the bustling
streets of the city center to the serene landscapes of the Maasai Mara,
I strive to depict the beauty, struggles, and resilience of the people and
places I encounter.
Documentary photography, in particular, holds a special place in my
heart. It allows me to tell untold stories, raise awareness about
important issues, and document the human experience in its rawest
form. I believe that photographs have the power to spark
conversations, challenge perceptions, and ultimately drive positive
change.
Whether it's a striking portrait, a breathtaking landscape, or a
captivating moment unfolding on the streets, I am dedicated to
capturing the world around me with authenticity and a keen eye for
detail. Photography is my way of sharing the stories that need to be
heard and preserving moments that might otherwise be forgotten.
I am excited to connect with fellow photography enthusiasts,
collaborate with like-minded individuals, and contribute to the visual
narrative of our world. Together, let us embark on a journey where
images speak louder than words, and where each click of the shutter
tells a story that resonates with the hearts and minds of those who
view it.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know me. I look forward to
sharing my passion for photography and the stories I capture with all of
you. Let's embark on this visual journey together!"

 EDUCATION

Nikon Masterclass in Kenya

2022- 2023 class - Fundamentals of Digital
photography
In the inaugural year of the Nikon School
Masterclass, students were introduced to the
fundamental principles of documentary
photography. Through a series of engaging
lectures and hands-on workshops, renowned
photographers and industry experts shared
their wisdom, techniques, and personal
experiences. Students learned about
composition, lighting, capturing emotion, and
developing a unique visual narrative.

 PORTRAITS
Portraiture is a form of photography
that has always fascinated me. It
allows me to delve into the depth of
human emotions, capture the essence
of a person's character, and tell their
unique story through a single image.
The power of a portrait lies in its ability
to connect people, evoke empathy, and
reveal the beauty and complexity that
exists within each individual.
I believe that every face tells a story—a
story of triumph, struggle, joy, or
resilience. Through my lens, I strive to
reveal the true essence of my
subjects, to capture their spirit and
personality in an authentic and
captivating way. Whether it's a
wrinkled face that reflects a lifetime of
wisdom or a child's innocent gaze filled
with curiosity, I am drawn to the
intricacies and nuances that make
each portrait a work of art.

economy contributing
approximately 33% of Gross Domestic
Product."
From George Odingo.
 "Through my lens, I witness the profound impact of
prioritizing children's health especially physical
education, for it is within these pillar that their dreams
take flight. Every click captures the resilience of
young minds, their potential unleashed when provided
with proper care and nurturing environments.
Investing in their well-being is not only a moral
imperative but also the foundation for a brighter
future. Join me as we shine a light on the
transformative power of empowering children,
ensuring their access to quality healthcare and
unlocking a world of endless possibilities.
