In this episode of The Darkroom Podcast, we had the pleasure of speaking with Romeo Okwara, a Leica photographer and the starting Defensive End for the Detroit Lions. Growing up in North Carolina and with family in Nigeria, Romeo’s love for travel developed at a young age. His interests in the creative space started with a passion for architecture and design, only growing stronger when he picked up a camera in college. We talk through his development as an artist and how his eye for the beautiful moments in everyday life has led him into his portraiture and lifestyle work, specifically documenting the lives of a group of firemen at FDNY Rescue 2 in Brooklyn over the last 2 years. We get a unique chance to hear how Romeo balances his life as an athlete in the NFL and his aspirations as an artist. Enjoy!
