What is an Instameet?
An Instameet is where people gather in a pre-determined place, at a set time, to take photos then upload them to Instagram. Plus, you get to meet your favourite Instagrammers for those attending the Instameet.
You don't need to be a professional photographer to go along to an Instameet.
About the Shujaa Stories Instameet - Warrior Edition
The Shujaa Stories Instameet - Warrior Edition attracted over 80 different content creators (photographers and models).
The event was held at the Nairobi National Museum and photographers were granted permission to photograph within all public spaces inside and outside the museum (this includes the galleries and the botanical gardens).
This Instameet was special as it was themed around the African Warrior. Models came dressed accordingly and the photographers were expected to curate their images based on the theme.
To crown the entire event was Spellcast Media who had 4 amazing performances and among them were one on Mekatilili and Mepoho, and the other on Gor Mahia and Anyango Nyaloka (story coming to the website soon).
