"After school, I help my mum sell oranges. I like going to the field cos I sell a lot there and also watch them play football, sometimes I wish I can play with the other children but I can't leave my market to play. When I grow up I want to be a billionaire so my mum won't sell oranges again." #humansoflagos

This is touching.

Hi guys welcome to The humans of Lagos photography thread, my initial plan was to do this project for nairalanders but I had troubles, first with the pm issue they kept me from sending as much mails as I could and secondly most nairlanders I was able to contact declined due to privacy concerns so I decided to take it up a notch, go out on the streets of Lagos and meet random Lagosians, interact with them, take a portrait and share their story.

Humans of Lagos is a street photography project capturing the lives of everyday Lagosians and sharing their story. Inspired by Brandon Stanton's HONY project. Capturing the heart and soul of everyday Lagosians, telling the Lagos story one shutter at a time.

Welcome on board as we start this interesting journey together and please do follow us on instagram http://instagram.com/thehumansoflagos and like our facebook page http://www.facebook.com/humansoflagosng http://www.facebook.com/TochianiPhotography for latest updates.


Show us ordinary people DOING extraordinary things. These photos are just kack shots , not interesting at all.

AWESOME thread OP.... i think you should create a blog for this, because the comments might get too long and we wouldn't be able to follow your postings... You can create a blog and be running this thread concurrently

Nice one dude, u should have a website for this and also create a facebook account just like Brandon, let me know of d fbk page when u do. coming to click this on nairaland will be too heavy since it's on d same page, so new website it is.

Re: The Humans Of Lagos (Street Photography Project) by Nobody: 10:23am On Jan 16, 2015
Original and creative project.

Impressed by the concept.

No window dressing, no studio make-up artists, no studio lights etc. yet good photos.

Take the shots as you find the subject/person of interest.

NMH in acceptance.
