I started Photography back then in my final year in Secondary School. My father went out, saw a man opening a store, asked what was happening and when told; signed me up to learn the artful craft.
It’d be a less intriguing story but my father’s words, counseling and “sometimes threat” didn’t make me want to expand my knowledge of the craft. I always felt deep within that there was more to handling the camera. A certain hunger held me at ransom to myself and this yearning landed me in Lagos; the City of hustle and bustle.
Here, I’ve learnt to see everyone and everything as a frame waiting to be captured. I love Portraits, Fashion, Documentary and Events Photography. These inspire me to use angles with the right light to represent the beautiful details and emotions of whatever subject comes my way. To me “Its a journey of adventure so i tagged my images #Edo2Eko”.
I’m happy Photographing, so next time you see me with a camera, You just might be my next point of interest so wear a smile, strike a pose and I bet my camera will roll. No day goes by where I’m not grateful to God and humanity for such wonderful parents
and the opportunity to travel through life multiple frames at a time.
