'This is my carnival face' by Kerron Riley
Kerron Riley is a lifestyle and fashion photographer and entrepreneur. Born in Trinidad spent many years in Bethesda, Maryland USA. The holder of a Photography Degree from The Maryland School of Art, he quickly became known for a unique photographic style that was as complex and as beautiful as his mixed heritage. His early photo documentaries entitled “Ghost Train” and “Blue Angles”, shot him to prominence setting him apart from his contemporaries because of the crisp and poignant use of photography for storytelling. His penchant for photography and knack for business has gained him prolific work for several publications including Profiles 98, Caribbean Bell, TEL, SHE, Mentality, ET&T and Scorch as well as for several high profile meetings such as the Summit of Americas 2010 and the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting 2010. He has been privileged to photograph Queen Elizabeth II and the current President of the United States of America Barack Obama, several world leaders, celebrities and local personalities. His interest in telling Caribbean Stories through photography has landed him a nomination for Caribbean Photographer of the Year 2011. Recently he has spent time exploring the rich flora and fauna of the Caribbean and Latin American Jungles and has documented a sustainability research project on a native tribe of the Amazon rainforest. However one of his main passions is in the discovery and development of new model talent and making ordinary things extraordinary on film.
