2008 I met Ikem the CEO of Indmix.com, and since then he has been my brother. So when he told me that he had found the one about two years a ago I was exicted for him. This wedding was a movie in the making, with Ikem the super soicalite and Nastassia a sweet but sassy young lady. They made it official August 14, 2016.

Nastassia had her close friends and family with her as she got ready at Hotel ZaZa. The room had signs of a good time the night before but she was up and eager to get ready and "Get Married" as she put it. The crazy thing is that this is the most time I have ever spent with Nastassia and didn't realize she was a jokester. Well her outfit was no joke with Jimmy Choo heels and custom designed dress by Stephen Goudeau and hair & makeup that could kill.

They held the ceremony at the Uh. Chapel. This building is a photographer dream partly because of all the open windows that allow beautiful natural light to illuminate the building. Ikem walked down with swagger and style with his custom made suit by TaliorMe and he saluted his groomsmen one by one. Ikem showed his love for Nas (that's what he calls her) when he saw her for the first time and tears rolled down his cheek. Ikem was more than eager than to get the wedding on as he reached for her before it was time. We also had his and her excellency Dr and Dame Alex I Ekwueme the former Vice President of Nigeria attend the wedding. The mini session we had was awesome and the structure of the building was great to shoot in. When we stepped outside there were two Bentleys waiting on them.

The rain came but the party didn't slow down, plus when you have Alexia of Savvy Events running your event it takes more than rain to cause a hiccup. The reception was held at the Petroleum Club of Houston. The music was great because there was a great mix between Niaja music and Top 40, and trap rap. The two had a great time and when you view the images you will be able to tell the guests did too.

Gerald D. Hines Waterwall and Hermann Park Engagement Photography Session Featuring Salmah & Akil

Gerald D. Hines Waterwall and Hermann Park Engagement Photography Session Featuring Salmah & Akil was a success! Salmah and Akil have an electrical love! I say this because the sparks in Salmah eyes when she looks at the Akil is very evident. Akil’s energy matched Salmah’s, and you could tell because he would sneak a look at his wife to be me every moment he could. His eyes showed how much he adored her, and it was well deserved because Salmah was a pleasure. She laughed at all my bad jokes and gave me very useful information about being vegan and Covid.

Warehouse District of Houston Texas Engagement Session Featuring Tolu and Segun 7-7-18

I had the chance to work with an amazing couple, Tolu and Segun! I’ve known Tolu since our college days at University of Houston ,and ever since then I remember her being this goofy young lady with elegant signature gap in between two front her teeth. You would figure with time some of that goofiness would ware off, well if you figured that you figured wrong. Tolu is still a fun loving young lady, the only thing that has changed is her partner in crime enjoys her antics and sometimes partakes in them. At first Segun was quiet and very reserved, but I would say mid way through the session I finally got to see the REAL Segun. Segun became a fountain of jokes and funny faces. Once he opened up it was apparent why this two had chosen each other. They love to laugh, and they love each other.

If you're looking for sibling goals, look no further than Gloria, Victor and Blessing Oyeniyi- who have all earned the title of Doctor.

As the children of Nigerian immigrants, the trio moved to Texas in 1995 and went on to develop a passion for the field of healthcare. Victor told Jonathan Martin of FOX 26 Houston."They (their parents) wanted and they aspired for us to be doctors, whether it was medical or professional. They just wanted us to have that title, and be the best at anything we chose to be."

Houston Texas Nigerian and Eritrean Engagement Session featuring Osaze and Tirhas 5-16-18

I had never had a completely traditional engagement session before, but Osaze and Tirha gave me a chance to bring their vision to life. These two looked incredible, Osaze and his future wife looked like royalty in their traditional garments. Tirha’s beautiful cheek bones shined through the entire session and Osaze boasted regal style. We shot the first half of the session at Studio 1306, which is conveniently located in downtown Houston. The black background made their outfits and skin tones jump right out at you.
