What we
photograph

Tell us the occasion and we plan the session around it: the look, the backdrop and the shots you want to keep. In our studio, or wherever your day is happening.

Ask about your date
  1. Weddings & Traditional RitesEngagement shoots, white weddings and traditional rites. We talk through your plans before the day, so the moments that matter to you are all covered.
  2. Portraits & HeadshotsHeadshots for your company profile, your website or a new title, plus clergy, chieftaincy and cultural portraits. Clean light and clear direction, so you look confident and like yourself.
  3. Beauty & GlamYou tied the gele, did the makeup and chose the lace. Close, flattering portraits that show every detail, for brides, celebrants and anyone who dressed for the camera.
  4. Birthdays & CelebrationsBirthday shoots in our studio or at your party. We keep the posed portraits and the laughter between them.
  5. Maternity, Children & FamilyBumps, babies, siblings, parents and grandparents. Unhurried sessions where little ones can settle, and the photograph your mother will want on her wall.
  6. Outdoor SessionsGardens and open spaces around Benin City, for portraits that need more room than a studio wall.

From the vows
to the coral.

You get one wedding day, and it moves fast. Church vows, the coral beads of the traditional rite, the family groups, the friends who travelled and the quiet moments in between: we cover all of it.

Before the day we talk through your plans, your people and the moments you cannot miss. On the day you simply enjoy your wedding, and we make sure it is all kept.
