Before Facebook there was MySpace. Before selfies there were self portraits. As a middle schooler in search of the perfect profile picture, Zinhle placed her hands on a camera. What started as a series of self portraits became one of her most beloved crafts. Her first year at GW, Zinhle’s photography was selected for the FotoWeek DC competition. Zinhle photographs locations and events; but, her favorite subjects to photograph are people. Press the “Contact” tab to inquire about rates and visit Zinhle’s Flickr to see more.
