Welcome to the very first episode of Photo Mama Podcast - conversations on all things motherhood, photography and life. In this episode, we will be having a casual conversation to introduce ourselves as your hosts. This will also give you a glimpse of what you can expect from future episodes.
My name is Iko-Ọjọ Mercy Haruna and I am a documentary photographer and digital media creative focused on motherhood and family stories. I also enjoy watching historical and medical dramas, reading, and listening to autobiographical audiobooks and exploring my current hometown in Kent with my husband and two children.
And I’m Elsie Kibue-Ngare, a photographer and a mom of two. When not photographing portraits or sports, I tend to photograph the mundane or work on personal projects. I am also passionate about travelling, rugby, music and K-drama. So don’t be surprised to hear them mentioned in the podcast.
Together we will be having conversations that include the juggling act that is motherhood and being a photographer, diving into various topics including childcare, mental health, finances and much more.
We will also delve into the creative side of photography, discussing how each photographer we interview finds inspiration for their work and their process. We will share stories about challenges faced before, during and after photo sessions and how they have overcome those challenges.
Photo Mama Podcast aims to bring all these conversations to the forefront to encourage and inspire mothers who happen to be photographers and show them that they are not alone and that we see them, being mothers ourselves.
We hope you enjoy listening to our podcast as much as we enjoy creating it.
