As a traveler, you may want to take photos from time to time that could be considered ethically questionable. Do we ever stop and think about why we want to take a photo? Are we really doing anything wrong by taking photos of the less fortunate?
Christine’s guest knows the impacts ethical photography can have on local communities around the world.
Amina Mohamed has always had a passion for photography. She spent fifteen years exploring this passion while working in film and television as a producer and production manager on numerous movies and documentaries.
In 2018, she started a for-profit travel business, Triple F Photo Tours and an initiative called Cameras For Girls, which was granted charity status in 2021. Through Triple F, Amina brings her travelers on culturally immersive photography tours and helps them improve their photography on every excursion.
