This is a portrait of Lefah Ibrahim Ballo who moved to Ireland from Segou in Southern Mali in 2012. He is married to Catriona and they have a beautiful young daughter. He has worked as a bartender and a barista and now works in construction near his home in Churchtown, Co. Dublin. This photo is one of a number that I’ve been taking of workers in the booming building industry, who aren’t from Ireland originally.
