Born and raised in Italy and based in Uganda, professional photojournalist, Damiano Rossi, travels around Africa, capturing stories from 360 degrees!

He agreed to deviate from his usual subject matter for our Rogo Collection photoshoot inspired by Ggaba fish market. The results were beautiful (if we may say so ourselves). Visit our Facebook page to view the Rogo Collection photos he took and check out our YouTube channel for a behind-the-scenes video from the shoot.

But first, check out a selection of work from Damiano’s travels in Namibia, Uganda, Burundi, South Sudan and Nigeria:
