Growing up, the art of cooking always fascinated me as I observed my late grandma and mother prepare hearty meals after school. Thanks to their guidance and hours of watching cooking shows with them, my passion for food grew from a hobby to an aspiration. Specifically, documenting food.
I decided to pursue food photography in 2014 while in university and shared my work, documenting my kitchen and restaurants adventures, online. From this, I started creating with Miss Mandi, an amazing client and cook, and that opened doors for me to work with brands like Jumia Food, Uncle Nene’s, Colosseum Restaurant, Blankets & Wine, Big Square and Mint N’ Salt.
Philosophy:
Food and its power in our lives is as real to me as the air we breathe. Its nurturing, it carries warmth, belonging, community, friendship, it’s about gathering around the simple table at home, away from the chaos, and seemingly growing tension felt in our world. It’s about getting back to the basics about creating a moment in time where for a minute, a few short hours even life is simple.
My services include photography, food styling and prop styling.
