Praia  Portraits illustrates a snapshot of life in Cape Verde's capital city, Praia.

In June of 2023, I dedicated a week to documenting the colourful and vibrant lifestyles of West African islanders.  Through a series of candid portraits, I aimed to capture the joy and simplicity found in their everyday moments, inviting viewers to marvel at their captivating sense of community.
