Barnaby Aldrick Wedding Photography – Blog

Note: This is one of a series of blogs I’m posting about my recent trip to Africa for a month’s charity photography for Link International, documenting their projects around Uganda Another shanty town we visited in Kampala was called Kisenyi.  It doesn’t get much more shanty than this. This is a brewery, distilling their own ghetto beer.  They’re drying millet and grain & roll it out in old oil drums.  Mmmm. They must sell it hear, cos I hear it’s delicious. The Hosanna school is in the middle of this heavily Somali area, and has been supported by Link to...

Note: This is one of a series of blogs I’m posting about my recent trip to Africa for a month’s charity photography for Link International, documenting their projects around Uganda One of the many interesting projects run by Link International around Kampala (The Ugandan Capital) is in what they call the ‘beads community’.

I’ve decided to make the ‘web-ready’ (ie. blog/emailable/facebook size) images available for all (team or otherwise) to download here from my blog, to share and spread around. You probably won’t be surprised to hear that there are loads of images, so I’ve split the sets into 2 major links: 1. The Kenya Drive (376 Images: 38 Megs) 2. Uganda 2010 (731 images: 80 Megs) Remember they are large files and may take...

When they saw their likeness on my camera LCD they’d loose their minds, pulling, tugging & for some strange reason, licking, my camera! I like this little story teller. This is the 2nd link project we visited, the Maternity unit...
