Throughout the US election campaign, American voters are bombarded with images of the two candidates speaking from podiums, greeting crowds at rallies and descending the steps of airplanes.
Long before they knew what the White House was... Kamala Harris and Donald Trump were photographed around the age of 3, photos published by foreign media.
Democratic presidential candidate Harris spent her early years in Oakland, California, while Republican candidate Trump grew up in New York's Queens borough.
Trump's father, Fred Trump, was the son of German immigrants, and his mother, Mary Anne MacLeod Trump, was born in Scotland. They enrolled him in the New York Military Academy at the age of 13.
Harris spent five years in high school in Montreal, Canada, where her mother began a teaching job at McGill University. She later enrolled at the historically black college, Howard University in Washington DC.
Trump has said that his five years at the academy, which he began in 1959, gave him military training and helped shape his leadership skills. He later left the Vietnam War.
From an early age, Harris was taught by her mother about the importance of the civil rights movement, and she participated in the annual Martin Luther King Jr. Freedom March on Washington in 2004.
After earning a degree from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, Trump was favored to succeed his father at the helm of the family business.
Harris returned to California, where she quickly rose to the top of the state's criminal justice system — landing a job as attorney general — and used that momentum to make a successful run for the U.S. Senate in 2016.
At the same time she entered Congress, Trump was entering the White House for the first time, having stunned the world by defeating Hillary Clinton.
Three years later, Harris ran a weak presidential campaign and the winner of the Democratic race was Joe Biden.
Today, Harris and Trump compete "head to head" in the race for the White House in the US presidential elections.
