The power of images in creating memory is undisputed. Through image and video, the experiences of events are captured and maintained for posterity. A Chinese proverb also states that a picture is worth a thousand words. To obtain success in photography and video of your event, one needs to be careful with choices that they make.
At MB IMAGE WORLD they live up to this task with exceptional efficiency. They are an image service provider specializing in high end wedding photography and Video.
This afternoon we spoke to Mr. Johnbosco Bahati who is one of the Directors of the company. We met him at his well organized, plush and neat office at Ntinda Complex in Kampala. His sense of style and quality set the tone for the interview.
Mr Bahati gave us insight into how they operate and what makes them different.
We bring you the interview here;
Mable Karungi: What exactly does MB IMAGE WORLD do as a business?
Mr. Johnbosco Bahati: MB IMAGE WORLD is a company dealing in wedding photography and video with a team of highly trained and dedicated people combined with high Tech equipment to offer high end, superior quality and timeless images and videos. We only do people photography. We major in weddings although on a small scale we can do birthdays, graduations, baby showers and many more. Our main focus is weddings to give people getting married the best experience.
Of late we are doing pre-wedding, wedding, and post-wedding photos and video.
We are doing concepts, experiential concepts to make each wedding different from the other. We have observed the evolution of weddings in Uganda and see a monotony of what goes on. People wake up, dress up, go to the Salon, head to the religious center, go and take photos, head to the reception, and close the day. But at MB IMAGE WORLD, we offer more than that for our clients.
Mable Karungi: What do you mean when you say high end, superior quality and timeless images?
Mr. Johnbosco Bahati: Images that stand the test of time and products far beyond the ordinary.
Mable Karungi: Your slogan is Experience the Difference, what does it mean?
Mr. Johnbosco Bahati: The difference we are talking about is felt and touched. We understand that organizing a wedding or any function is not easy and in most cases there is a whole lot of pressure on the couple. When we take on your wedding, we give you a personal touch, it ceases to be a client company relationship, we work with you all through to make your day memorable.
Mable Karungi: Speaking about difference, how different are you from other service providers?
Mr. Johnbosco Bahati: Our difference is still related to our approach and output. It’s also about how we relate with our clients. To us it’s not the job that counts, it’s the client. Our aim is to give nothing but the very best to the client, therefore our prices match with the quality of service that we give.
Secondly we do not target everyone. We target people who understand the value of photography for their event, people who attach a quality tag and not a price tag on their function. That is very important.
The type of people we hope for are those who will call and say “which day are you free so that we schedule our wedding for you to cover.” We get many of those and they form the largest component of our clientele.
Mable Karungi: This is wonderful. Now we see many service providers doing multiple events in a day, how many events can you manage to do in a single day?
Johnbosco Bahati: While it may be good to take on more than a wedding a day,it is better to focus on one to achieve results and perfection. We deliberately prefer to render our capacity to one wedding a day. This enables us to focus all our attention and resources to our client to give them the best experience.
Mable Karungi: What does MB mean in full?
Johnbosco Bahati: MB stands for Margaret, Bahati. Margaret is my beautiful and gorgeous wife, and Bahati is me.
Mable Karungi: How long have you been in business?
Johnbosco Bahati: Personally I have been into photography since my high school but I went professional in 2014.
Mable Karungi: How far can you go? If someone in Tunisia wanted to book you to cover their wedding would you go there?
Johnbosco Bahati: Oh yes! We do destination weddings. We can go anywhere as long as we agree on the terms of service.
Mable Karungi: What are your working days and hours?
Johnbosco Bahati: We respond to our clients throughout the day and week but most of the time we are available at our office from 9:00AM to 7:00PM.
Mable Karungi: Where are you located?
