Harry Bradley is a clinical psychologist and photographer from St. Louis. “My images in this display are a collection of events and people photographed during a two-week wedding celebration in and around Bukoba, Tanzania, on the western shore of Lake Victoria,” Bradley says. “As the father of the groom, I had the unique opportunity to be hosted by tribes and the bride’s family during visits to their villages.”
