Celebrity photographers, Twinsdontbeg, has shared insights into the start of their photography journey.
Sharing their inspiring journey on Joy Learning's "The Career Trail" program, Twinsdontbeg recalled that their photography venture began after featuring in a Hollywood movie production dubbed, "The Cursed One."
The film, starring esteemed actors from Ghana and beyond, including Hollywood actor, Oris Erhuero, served as their initial foray into the industry.
As assistant directors and producers, they successfully honed cinematography, videography, and photography skills, despite the rigorous demands of their roles.
“The movie was shot in Koforidua for almost two months. While on set I was assistant to the director, my brother was assistant to the producer, we were serving people, we were doing errands because as an assistant you need to do errands and hold drinks for people”, they narrated.
They said that their dedication on set fostered meaningful connections with the cast and crew, including Oris Erhuero.
“We were able to bond with a lot of people, especially the Hollywood celebrities that came,” they added.
On the final day of production, serendipity struck when one of the directors decided to sell his camera, Twinsdontbeg seized the opportunity but financial constraints hindered their purchase.
Fortunately, Oris Erhuero's generosity facilitated by their rapport enabled them to acquire their first camera.
“One of the directors from the set, didn’t want to take one of his small cameras back to wherever he came from, so we decided to buy it but our money wasn’t enough, so Oris Erhuero added money to buy our first camera”, they stated.
With one camera and unbridled passion, Twinsdontbeg has traversed the globe, immortalising moments with Jamie Foxx, Rihanna and the Second Lady, Samira Bawumia.
