Ggaba Fish Market: the Inspiration behind the Rogo Collection Shoot

Posted by Mary Bosibori on

The Rogo Collection photos you’ve seen were inspired by Ggaba fish market, a vibrant and colourful part of Kampala that Adèle loves and insists is a must-see when in town. The market is located on the northern shores of Lake Victoria, at the southern tip of Kampala city.

Adèle reconstructed the firewood heaps in her garden for the shoot and injected a rough, natural, used, warm feel by adding old used sacks.
