African Ethno-Pop Photography

Based in Kenya, Nairobi, K63 delivers modern and funky African ethno-pop photography.

 The contemporary fashion forward images are captured with the beautiful celebration of African culture as a core theme.

Defined, bold, colorful and unabashedly a celebration of traditions is delivered by the photographer. From vintage, jazz, to the uber modern avant garde fashion, even landscape and portraits, K63 journeys to the far flung reaches of his imagination and continent to interpret the language of his land. His evolving styles and variant techniques indicate a hunger and curiosity to explore more within the realm of photography and the subtle accents of pop culture dominate his work.
