Joseph Kinyua
The People of Mathare
I am Joseph Kinyua.
I am a 13 years old boy and there are three of us in our family. I go to school at Kiboro Primary School - that’s at the side of Mathare slum. I like taking photos and playing football. I started photography in the year 2004 with the help of Julius Mwelu who I had been seeing taking photos in the slum. That’s how I started to dream of being a photographer one day. And that’s way I like taking photos of Mathare slum and one day I will be a professional photography like Julius Mwelu.
