She is facing the camera, with her left hand on her hip and her right arm bent, her hand near her side. She has dark skin, black braided hair with colorful beads at the ends, and is wearing a blue and white striped dress with black puffed sleeves and yellow slide sandals. A patterned messenger bag with geometric shapes in pink, purple, blue, and white is slung over her right shoulder. The background includes a partially constructed building with grey cinder blocks and a metal fence, stacks of grey corrugated metal sheets, and green vegetation with small yellow flowers. Scattered debris, including dry leaves, twigs, and plastic, litters the ground around the girl and in the background. The overall scene depicts an outdoor, somewhat unkempt environment in what appears to be a developing area of the city.

A medium close-up side profile shot shows a young Black male with dark skin and short, curly black hair, facing right. He is wearing a plain white crew-neck t-shirt. A small, round gold stud earring is visible in his left ear. The background suggests an outdoor, possibly rural, setting in Badagry, Nigeria. To the left, palm fronds from a large tree cast shadows. Behind the subject, a concrete wall runs horizontally, with sections appearing weathered and broken.
