Photography wasn’t always in the plan, I was more of a pen artist than shutter Nerd. Back then in my days at the University of Ibadan, I was into comics drawing. One day, a photographer saw my comics and took a shot of it, edited it and sent it to print. The end result was so much more beautiful than the one I drew and immediately, I felt drawn to the art of Photography.
Since then, I have had this unquenching thirst for Photography, it’s been like an unhealthy addiction and the satisfaction I derive from a successful shoot is like no other.
The journey from point then to now has been interesting and inspiring. Photographing brings out a certain good spirit in me whilst enabling me showcase the beauty of mother nature, humans or whatever subject is before my lens.
