Francisco De Souza

I was born and raised in a small community in the beautiful African landscape of Zimbabwe where it was easy for me to engage with photography and people from an early age. From the age of eleven, armed with my Dad's Minolta camera, I explored my community, making local friends, and capturing photographs of my Shona tribal neighbours. It was this humanitarian grounding in photography that gave me my life-long passion for capturing people and their stories on film.

In the intervening years, displaced from my Zimbabwean home, I have actively travelled through and lived in many developing countries in Africa, the Indian Subcontinent, and South East Asia.
