RIP: Oliver Mtukudzi - photographs from the African Soul Rebels tour 2009

Published on Thu Jan 24, 2019 by

Sad to hear that legendary jazz musician Oliver Mtukudzi has died. Oliver "Tuku" Mtukudzi was a Zimbabwean musician, businessman, philanthropist, human rights activist and UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador for Southern Africa Region. Tuku was considered to have been Zimbabwe's most renowned and internationally recognised cultural icon of all time. These photos are from way back in 2009 when he was on tour with Baaba Maal at the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall, Liverpool, England UK.

Behind The Scenes case study photo shoot at a Dental Surgery Launch

There is something uniquely rewarding about photographing people in spaces where they feel confident, professional, and proud. That’s exactly the atmosphere I stepped into during a recent commission at a newly opened dental surgery — a sleek, modern practice blending cutting-edge care with a warm, welcoming environment..

David is a very creative, imaginative photographer and shows great empathy with his subjects. These qualities certainly show in his work. I am very pleased to endorse him.
