Photographer: Emmanuel Muleya I’m a portraiture photographer, I take pictures of people, capturing that moment that is gone forever. My name is Emmanuel Muleya, born on 3rd of June 1998. Born in Bulawayo, grew up in Hillbrow Johannesburg, South Africa. Primarily attended at Gauteng college until grade 7.

Attended high school at Academy Business School from grade 8 until I completed matric level. In 2018 did my course in Business management 1 and currently doing my degree in Supply Chain Management at Regent Business School. My interest in media began when I was in primary, when I wanted to be a movie star especially action movie to an extent that I ended doing martial arts at the age of 9 until 17 years of age, until my childhood friend DK introduced me to Khomba Music Production working in hand in hand with Chris Light Films in 2016, by that time I was in Grade 10. Chris Light Films is a film company whereby it specialize in shooting music videos and films. That is where I met Christian Bofwa who is the CEO of CLF, I told him about my big interest in media and he took me in and he taught me everything about shooting films and images but I fell in love with taking images more than shooting videos. I enjoyed capturing the emotion of my subjects through my lens. The first camera I used was a Fujifilm x100 when we go shoot music most of the time I would shoot behind the scenes. My goal now is to show the beauty, grace, strength and enthusiasm of people of which I called it THE RICH REALITY OF STORIES shown through images. I focus on models and place regular in an exaggerated situations that highlight an aspect of who they are. I look for a sense of defiance and fortitude in my work. I’m based in Midrand but travel for projects around Southern Africa. As well as a assistant director at Chris Light Films in Joburg, I shoot a lot of portraits as well as behind the scenes images during music videos shoots, and others including celebrity portraits. fb: Emmanuel Muleya Instagram: Chief zyamutala Whatsapp: 062 765 3811 Telephone: 078 756 1359

To be clear these were feeling I had back then and I put them on paper back then.

I am in a Serious relationship With My Precious Palesa, the only reason I am sharing this Now is because art is meant to be shared. ~Monate

She loves me, She loves me not.

What is Love?

Love is Friendship and Friendship is Love.

Love is a kiss, A kiss is love Friends kiss.

Biography The duo soul & rnb djs are passionate about music, soul & Rnb, funk & blues and smooth jazz to the exact. Our career path started in early 2017 through compiling old school blues and sharing it with family and friends at weddings, baby showers and social gatherings. Being the youngest Soul & Rnb duo djs around ekurhuleni inspired us to do more than just collect music as a hobby.

Upon our self-drive, we opted for other options and pursued a resident dj spot later that year at one of the local lounges in Tembisa, Si-Andy Lounge, formerly known as Calliber Lounge. For six months we committed ourselves in hosting soul sessions every last Sunday of every month, featuring some of the best local, talented djs. With the help of God we have been at it ever since till present.

Model focus: Dean Masola I've loved fashion since I was young, so falling in love with modeling was purely natural. Coming from a home where they don't relate to the fashion industry I could only starting exploring my modelling skills after high school. I've done a couple shoots with different photographers and it made me realize this is something I was born for.

I'm a very ambitious person, who's been in love with art since a young age. I've always loved the idea of being on TV, walking on runways and being on magazine covers. I had my first theatre experience in 2013, when i was only 14 years old, that experience was a confidence booster, hence it helped me become an actor, writer, poet and a YouTuber. I'm currently working on a few documentaries for my YouTube channel.

Music to me is food, not just any food, but food of the soul , hence I can touch and inspire people with my music Who in the South African music industry would you like to collaborate with and why?

I would like to collaborate with many, but I'll name two. Cassper nyovest, because he's so original to his work. A Reece, he's more like Me and he raps about life experiences When hip hop started it was all about the message now with trap we can hardly hear anything, what is your opinion about trap?

I feel like trap has changed the game totally, music has changed a lot, so trap is for turn ups and not all about the message

What do you rap about?

I rap about my own life experiences because I know someone might be going through the same so with my music I'll help them to overcome everything In your own opinion Why do you think the is this stigma that everyone who made it joined the Illuminati?

Because we've seen international rappers do satanic ritual in music videos so everyone thinks when a musician get their big break it means they are under illumination Where can people see you performing live?

I

'm Blessing Zonke 'Kuno Fresh" Mawela. The co-founder & manager of an agency called Mirra Model Management Pty. Ltd, brand ambassador of a clothing brand RASBTEES and B.ed student at the University of Johannesburg (UJ). I was born & raised in Mpumalanga in a trust called eDwaleni in the Mbombela City (Kabokweni). Arts and education is what drives my spirit and life.

As a manager at Mirra Model my duties are organising of events, pageants, photo shoots & recruiting of models. I also work as a freelancing sales man for various clothing brands amongst those are Catwalk, OneTime, Love Birds Clothing & UJ clothing I remember when I fell in love with arts it was the year 2008 during in my primary (grade 6) school years when I joined a group called Room13 which exposed me to the world of arts & I also got the opportunity to work experienced individuals such as Maurice Tivane, Vusi Mhlunge & Zimbabwean talented painter & poet Ishmael Moyo. As I was at ROOM13 I got the opportunity to do theatre, music, visual arts & acting. I left ROOM13 when I did my grade 11 in 2013 when I had to focusing on my school work. I went on in 2014 after finishing my grade 12 and opened an arts & music group called SAYDO (South African Youth Development Organisation- Kabokweni Branch) in my community which lasted 7 months before I went to Johannesburg to start with my Education studies in 2016. In 2017, I met a friend of mine (Bongane Mahlombe) which introduced me to business & clothing. I worked with Bongane at RASBTEES at Maboneng store in the MOAD from 2017 to this day where the shop had grown to operate at End Street Mall. Rasbtees the brand is co- ambassadored by Zimbabwean Comedian @Chik_Aljoy In 2018, with a team of people (Bongane Mahlombe, Suprise Zwane, Mbongiseni Siyenga, Sunnyboy Mlombo, Mhlengi Dlamini & myself) Mirra Model Management Pty Ltd was formed and to this day the company has miraculously done so much.

Success & what you want is not determined by people but yourself. It all starts when an individual has removed fear AND In order for any individual to do it, they have to be optimistic about life, focus on what they want, put in the work & build viable legit connections & results will manifest.
