OLAJUMOKE

Church family edges lifted_2048px.jpg

Olajumoke and her 6 kids had just been to pray. They’d also been to McDonalds and were on their way home, waiting for a bus on the Old Kent Road, South London. I asked if I could take a shot and there then ensued a lively debate between the kids as to whether or not I should be allowed to do so. This went on for several minutes before Olajumoke stepped in and firmly told everyone to pose. In an instant, the kids all stopped their debate and posed for me. I was lucky that the family were so incredibly photogenic, because I literally had a few seconds to get this shot before the bus came and they were gone forever.
