Mardi Gras Facebook AU : Equallove

This Mardi Gras Benzane Design had the awesome opportunity to follow and record the preparation and the parade of the amazing Rainbow Kids float from Facebook AU. 

The Rainbow Kids are a LGBTI youth group who use Facebook to connect and share about issues that they relate to in the world. The float consisted of a huge "like" button with the hashtag #equallove. Love was the related theme as it is one of the most used icons on Facebook after the "like" button. The idea being that we are all fighting for #equallove.

The whole day was an amazing celebration with a mixed group of people including sexy dancers, Miss Tina Turnon and the Facebook family.

Photographically my goal was to record the story of this happy day and all the preparation, from the make-up and hair to the super cool marching on the parade, in a photojournalistic reportage, which captured the fun, the laughter and the smiles of all involved showing how proud we are to share our #equallove.
