Photographer Victoria Komu, known as Photo Femme, captured Tina in stunning natural landscapes, portraying her as a force of resilience in the face of injustice. Reflecting on the project, Tina shared, “It was nothing short of God’s doing… He made sure He aligned everything back to the original plan.”
Stylist Sally Minoo of iStyle added depth to the visuals with bold outfits and traditional Kamba-inspired accessories. The colors, textures, and designs speak to the beauty, power, and courage of women everywhere.
