Jude Lartey is a self taught image-maker from Ghana, who at age 23, creates portraits that carry a sensibility far beyond his age.
Also moonlighting as an art director and fashion stylist for brands, magazines and artists, Lartey’s cinematic scenes are illustrations of new identities of his generation; dreams, fashions and evolutions.
Both his documentary as well as his fashion rooted photography showcase an interwoven reality where harsh everyday life is in subtle or stark contrast to the confident and joyful energy that oozes from Accra’s booming creative and international community. A young mirror to an era and culture.
Lartey has worked with brands such as Adidas, Converse, Burberry, Tommy Hilfiger, Palmwine IceCream, etc. He has also worked with publications & magazines in the likes of NPR, The Guardian, Dazed, GQ, Vogue, etc.
