And I was good at it too, which meant I played small to make others feel comfortable. And it was suffocating, miserable, and boring.<\/p>\n<p>I was born in Uganda, grew up in Harare, Zimbabwe, moved to Birmingham, AL with my sister and mother when I was 10 years old and since then, I\u2019ve lived around the world.\u00a0 I\u2019ve always been fascinated by culture and how it impacts a person\u2019s lifestyle. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When I was younger, it was easier to assimilate and act like I was just like everyone else. I didn\u2019t want to stand out. I didn\u2019t want to be different because in Birmingham, AL, it made people very uncomfortable and upset. So I rarely told people my last name, dressed and talked a certain way, and excelled in school just to prove to everyone that I was just like them. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It wasn\u2019t until a good mentor called me out that the walls came down and I started to see the beauty in celebrating who I am, my cultural upbringing and the fact that, I am multicultural. If you\u2019re familiar with Ugandan culture, American culture or Southern American culture; you\u2019ll see bits and pieces of these cultures come out in me: whether it\u2019s in my accent, how I respond to elders in a disagreement, why I drink so much tea, the music I listen to or the clothes and accessories I wear.<\/p>\n<p>Now as a wedding photographer, I specialize in helping multicultural couples celebrate their love in a modern way; it makes me come alive!!! I LOVE my clients, I love their stories, I get their struggles and I understand how important it is for people to see all of who they are, especially on their wedding day.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12824\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12824\" style=\"width: 2174px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12824\" src=\"https:\/\/hbbadmin.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Jewish_Nigerian_Muslim_wedding_Chelsea_Piers_Petronella_Photography_430-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2174\" height=\"3268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Jewish_Nigerian_Muslim_wedding_Chelsea_Piers_Petronella_Photography_430-1.jpg 1362w, https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Jewish_Nigerian_Muslim_wedding_Chelsea_Piers_Petronella_Photography_430-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Jewish_Nigerian_Muslim_wedding_Chelsea_Piers_Petronella_Photography_430-1-681x1024.jpg 681w, https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Jewish_Nigerian_Muslim_wedding_Chelsea_Piers_Petronella_Photography_430-1-768x1155.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hbb.dev.reliablepenguin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Jewish_Nigerian_Muslim_wedding_Chelsea_Piers_Petronella_Photography_430-1-1022x1536.jpg 1022w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2174px) 100vw, 2174px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12824\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rebecca + Remi&#8217;s multicultural Jewish Nigerian Muslim wedding at Chelsea Piers Photo credit: \u00a9 Petronella Photography https:\/\/bypetronella.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I recently launched a podcast called I Am Multicultural <a href=\"https:\/\/bypetronella.com\/podcast\/\">Podcast<\/a> as a way to delve deeper in the multicultural experience.
