BackgroundPhotography and art have always been something in the family for many many years. My great grandfather Alphonso Sylvester Lisk-Carew (1887–1969) was active as a photographer in Sierra Leone. He founded his business in 1905 and his brother Arthur Lisk-Carew was his assistant. They focused not just on photography materials but traded in stationery, toys, and fancy goods. They were great businessmen. My great grandparents made trips into the interior of Sierra Leone and also the Gambia in 1912. One of their greatest achievements was in 1910 when they were appointed photographers for the Duke of Connaught and Strathearn.
I have decided to continue the journey of my great grandparents, so please join me as I explore the world and share my work. It is not just a picture, but an expression of art, a unique piece captured through my lens at the right time in the right place. I call this the perfect moment, my art which tells a story. From the blue skies to the angry clouds, the smooth relaxing sea to the rough ocean, the stars, the moon, the plants, the wonderful animals and the lovely people on the planet. Many of you know how much I enjoy taking pictures. Many have asked what do I do with my pictures, etc. Over the past few years, I have been building up a portfolio with plans to use it for a charitable cause. I have been waiting for the right moment. The right moment is now. CharityThe time is now right for me to use my passion for photography for a charitable pursuit. I will like you to join me as we see the world through the lens of my camera and join hands to raise funds and support Oclas Foundation www.oclasfoundation.org a not for profit foundation set up to cater for children from single parent homes.
