Desola Adeniyi's Wedding

So few days after I covered Yemi's Wedding on the Outskirt of Lagos Nigeria, i also got another call from a friend to come cover her Sister's wedding (talk about reaching out "wink").

Not as the main photographer, but as a backup photographer and it was a lifetime experience.

The main photographer Mr Fredricks is an amazing pro wedding photographer and i learnt so much from him.

And the family.....WoW.. so friendly and wonderful family.

Yemi Shittu's Wedding

So few days later i got this call from an old friend of mine telling me he will be getting married soon and would want me covering his wedding....... Talk of Luck.

So we negotiated a fair price and set out to do what we do.

I really do respect the couple a lot for the respect and co-operation not minding the pressure from the family which i noticed is typical with the Yoruba Tribe in Nigeria.
