Featured in FRUK Magazine Issue No. 2, an 8 page beauty spread.

This 8 page beauty spread incorporated the use of flowers as head gear. I love working with talented individuals, the creatives involved in this shoot were no exception. The floral head-dresses were created by the hairstylist and the wardrobe stylist to help produce these stand out images. Beauty is definitely one of my favourite styles to shoot, as my work continues to evolve I want to create more dynamic images in regards to concept, lighting and colour so stay tuned.

Shooting Lira for Glam Africa Autumn 2015 Cover and Spread

I had the pleasure of teaming up with GlamAfrica for a cover shoot and spread with South African singer Lira for their Autumn 2015 edition.

I reached out to make up artist Brenda Shonibare of BreelliantMUA who I previously worked with on a shoot with Ezinne CEO dancer and we worked alongside talented Stylist Crystal Deroche and Stylist assistant: Ecleechic for this 6 page spread.

The images were featured alongside an interview with Lira with a Bohemian vibe in styling.

Shooting Mazi Chukz for Blanck Digital Magazine

Mazi Chukz is Nigerian by heritage, British raised and a 'break out' star within the Afrobeats genre.

I had the pleasure of shooting Mazi for the September number 6 issue of Blanck Digital; an online magazine now available in print.

Images taken were featured alongside an interview with Mazi with items from Topman, Zara, Crista Repo and so on used to style Mazi pulled by the awesome stylist Lydia White. The styling direction chosen was fresh whilst ensuring we incorporated elements of his Igbo culture within the final images. Images were taken using a 3 light set up, with the exception of two of the styled looks.

Working with Mazi was great, I loved his humble but confident nature.

With the release of future songs and projects in motion, the future certainly looks superb for Mazi; I am always excited to see young talent blossom and feel happy to have partaken in the journey. Look out for fresh new releases from Mazi Chukz.

GlamAfrica featured 3 images from my port and ran it as a promotion.

The images features quotes from myself. They were:

"Muster the courage, confidence and faith to reach out and grab hold of your dreams, pull them into that place called reality."

"The mind can take you anywhere you want to go; why not make the destination amazing."

This issue of the magazine has also been featured on the BBC website which is absolutely amazing.

I believe this is just the beginning for GlamAfrica, I truly expect great things to come from the publication and look forward to watching GlamAfrica evolve as well as many more features to come.
