]]> A lot has happened since I last uploaded an image onto shutterchance. I got married, stopped doing wedding photography (yes its true), I seem to specialise more with editorial, fashion, beauty and commercial photography. The above image was from one my shoots for a very talented make-up artist Bolanle Okusanya Feyita.

]]> Captured in the lovely town of bath a few weeks ago, heres a picture of my travelling companion who decided to dramatise for me LOL. Anyways next week i've got an exhibition of my work in brick lane in London. I was very honoured that a young lady thought my work worthy appearing in her fashion show. Her name is Saze Osayande who is the creator of Mr King apparel. She will be exhibiting her new collection of art on fashion. My work will be up all day at the venue and off course I will be there. This is exciting and scary, I've never done this kind of thing before, well gotta start sometime. So come down and see some of my work if your not to busy.

]]> Ok I have been away enjoying my motherland (YAHOOZEY!!!) anyways I am back and heres some more art type photography of mine that I enjoy very much. I want to do more shots like this and so I am looking to develop my portfolio with this type of work I was in nigeria shooting a wedding, which was very interesting (in a good way). I will put up some images soon. Doing a nigerian wedding in nigeria ain't easy, ask mr Alakija. I got some good shots so I am sure the bride and groom will be pleased. can anyone think of a better title for this image? was having some technical difficulties putting this image up a few days ago. hope its sorted now

]]> Ok I know this one might not be technically perfect, but I love it cos its a picture of a special someone. GOSH I seem to be devoting my blog to her.......... OK I want new models............. people interested increasing their portfolio. I think I should taking photography seriously, but then will I still enjoy it. Anybody does photography full-time, do u still enjoy it? I am in Nigeria............... where it is hopefully HOT. I want to buy medium format camera, anybody know anyting?

I need models, any volunteers??? I would love to work with some interesting faces, any takers?
