Young Hamer Woman at the Keske river crossing (Turmi, Ethiopia 2014)

After a long day exploring the Omo Valley, I got back to the camp with a feeling that I hadn’t captured the portrait I was looking for that day. I decided to walk the riverbed from the camp to the Keske crossing, where I knew the Hamer returning from the Turmi market would cross the river on their way back to their villages. The effort paid off as I made what I feel are my favorite portraits from the Omo Valley, such as this one of a young Hamer woman who was accompanying her mother and sister.
