Falomo Bridge, Lagos Nigeria

TFKE — 2011-12-16

These horses belong to The Polo Club in Lagos and you can often see them being ridden around The Island of the city (it occurred to me I've never bothered to find out why just always guessed exercise or something hmm) Anyway they've become so common place coz I grew up seeing them around that I never thought to photograph them until about 2 weeks ago. I just found out it so interesting that they joined in the traffic rather then trotting along the sides like they usually do. It was also hilarious to see a car try to chance* them like any other vehicle in an attempt to get ahead! Typical considering every driver in Lagos (irrespective of the mode of transport evidently) believes his/her destination is more important than the next's! *chance - A term used to describe the aggressive attempt by a driver to get ahead of another in the next lane (usually used when such an attempt was successful)

This is turning into an "unedited" series lol but I'm really happy that I'm relying less and less on Photoshop. It's taken a while to understand why photographers are often anti-photoshop but I'm starting to get it. I still think it's an amazing tool but it does kind of cheapen the art so I'm gonna keep trying to get the best possible results on-camera and then consider touching up after :) x

Love this because it's 100% unedited (except of course the title!) straight off the camera, always the most satisfying shots :)

TFKE — 2011-09-16

(Continuation, see previous) ... And so he disappeared, and she knew it was her conscience She shook it off, heart still racing as she'd felt defenceless. Little wonder though, what was waiting round the corner He kept his promise to ensure she'd always remember... _________________ Face mask created by Modé Artist Photography: Toyosi Faridah Kekere-Ekun

So I got to do an actual shoot with Diana (a popular subject of mine as you'll discover going through my archive) which of course was amazing! This is one of my favourite shots so far.. Not done with the collection but I just had to share this. I think she looks so beautiful and regal! ♥♥♥ Dress by Zebra Living

Modé - Artist

TFKE — 2011-07-03

This is a photograph of my cousin Modé, an amazing artist and writer (Check out her paintings here and follow her on Twitter for regular updates) We went to check out the location for a photo shoot I have coming up and she was my substitute model for the test shots. I tried to give this one a bit of an arty twist - for obvious reasons - so I toyed with the exposure and contrast to create the half-masked effect on her face & right arm, as well as the slight shadow to light gradient across the whole image :) PS. Turn the brightness up high on your screen to really see this shot
