A Business Consultant for Zobighana, Mohammed Abdul Ahmed
has urged photographers to be creative and stop depending on events for money.
The business consultant said photography is one of the
renowned jobs in the country but it seems many of the photographers do not
understand their profession.
Mr. Ahmed said many photographers do not think outside the
box but only interested in taking pictures of events or programs.
He said photography can tell stories of a community or the
country with their pictures but many are rather focusing on events and programs.
Mohamed Abdul believes that taking pictures of communities
will help upcoming generations know the state of their ancestors.
“Taking pictures at events is good but be creative enough to
differentiate yourself from your peers,” he added.
The Business Consultant added many people in the country do
not see the importance of photographers because of how they handle themselves.
Mohammed Abdul Ahmed urged photographers to brand their
selves well to draw recommendations instead of belittling themselves.
Mohammed made this statement in interview with Adom News
during 3 days workshop for Photographers, Makeup Artists and Fashion Designers
organized by Africa Eyes Focus at Nima.
Meanwhile, a U.S base in Ghana Fashion Designer, Neka Malene
also urged Ghanaian fashion designers to be versatile.
According to her, many fashion designers in Ghana only use
Ghanaian textiles instead blending with foreign cloths.
The CEO of Africa Eyes Focus, Ahmed Richard Martey said the
workshop is to sharpen the profession of photographers, makeup artists and
fashion designers in the country.
The workshop that was held for Photographers, Makeup artists
and Fashion Designers paved ways for them to showcase their talent.
