Pivoting in the entrepreneurship world refers to making a fundamental change in the running of business to survive bad times. And Colours and Moments, a photography studio, has had to do just that in a time when no parent wants to let their child, their chief client, wander anywhere but in the safety of home.
But here they are; John Kibuchi and Olive Ngendo, a husband and wife tag teaming through a photoshoot, right in the midst of the pandemic. I’m seated at the back of their studio, watching one of the children’s photoshoots and I soon learn that doing child photography is akin to herding cats. The children are more interested in doing literally anything but actually sitting still for a picture. They share the strategies that they have had to adapt in these times.
