“My best photograph is the one I have yet to create. I measure my craft not by the number of pictures I take, but by the depth of the moments I am able to capture." - Wilson Masaka, +throughMylens

📌 SKILL UP 101 - December 2025

Are you an aspiring photographer ready to elevate your craft? 

This December, I will be offering five hours of complimentary, high-impact training, drawing from my core philosophies in Learn to Learn and the Self-Made Series.

If you are part of a youth group within Nairobi, this is your chance to gain practical insight, sharpen your creative eye, and understand the mindset that fuels sustainable growth in photography. I will be donating these five hours to a maximum of 25 committed young creatives—a gesture of #GivingBack to the community that continues to inspire me.

Whether you’re seeking mentorship, motivation, or a deeper understanding of the art and discipline behind photography, this session is designed to set you on a path toward excellence.

📩 Reach out, if you're  a youth group and let’s create something remarkable together.

📌 Insightful Quote Tag #DigitalEra #DigitalError #DigitalHela

"Our biggest task and challenge as mentors, facilitators or educators is to inspire more youthful generations to become content creators rather than just content consumers. On the other hand, we should aspire to create many platforms for youth to learn and earn a decent wage through the use of technology." - Wilson Masaka, Youth Advocate and Social Entrepreneur.
