JUST JOKING with Walé Gates

Last weekend UK bank holiday saw Funny-man, Compere, Master of Ceremony (MC) and Comedian, British Born- Nigerian stand-up comic: Mr WALE GATES, brought the house down at the historic Catford Broadway Theatre, Catford London, with his unique style of stand-up comedy. It was his maiden London Live Show Tagged: JUST JOKING With WALE GATES.

I must apologize, for my lateness, (I was an hour late for the show) this was due to circumstances beyond my control, but l did eventually make to the sell-out show. I have met Wale on countless wedding ceremonies which he compered and l must confess this gentleman can sure make you reel in laughter till your lungs sore.

Wale was ably supported on this show by some seasoned comics who flew in from Nigeria: Julius Agwu, Basorge Tariah, Jedi, Teju Babyface, and Koffi

The show also featured rising rnb star Michael Word who performed some of his songs.

A host of UK based comedians also got the audience in laughter fits – Obonjo, Akpos, Sam Wakabout, Funny Ade and Snatcher.
Saxophonist Wale Great set the mood right with his jazzy tunes and DJ’s on the night were: Bigyem, Davy Diamond, Whateva and Archyra who rocked the house during intervals.

“I was pleasantly surprised to see a packed house and I’m immensely grateful to my fans and comedian friends who came out to support me. I can’t wait for next years edition.” said an excited Wale Gates.

I’d like to say a Big Thank you to my very good friend DJ Abass of DJA Media who flew in straight from Nigeria on the night, for letting me be part of this show.

Here are some photos from the show and Please do feel free to share and leave a comment:

Shamila & Olawalé

Love they say Knows NO Boundaries, So, when SHAMILA and OLAWALE said “I DO” recently at their wedding in London, it was a day to behold.

A ‘Transnational Marriage’ between two lovely couple from different heritage yet very similar in cultures and all aspects.

Shamila originally from Uganda and Olawale from Nigeria were pronounced man and wife at the Marriott Hotel in London. It was witnessed by families and very close friends. Both couple were looking stunning. The groom and his men were kitted out by my very good friend and designer Maze; of MAZE COUTURE who was also part of the groom’s men. Both couple were very emotional when they were declared Man & Wife by the registrar.
Guest later converged at the Best Western Palms Hotel in Hendon for the reception and party. The food was fantastic and the entire atmosphere was beautiful and colorful.

I had an awesome time with Shamila amd Olawale and am wishing them a very HAPPY MARRIED LIFE.

Here are some photos from the wedding. Please feel free to leave a comment and share.

TITI & GBENGA.

TITI & GBENGA were introduce to me through a very good friend of mine, they have been seeking a photog to document their wedding.
So, the very first time I met TITI & GBENGA in person was during their pre-wedding shoot, but prior to that we’ve had series of telephone chat wanting to know what sort of photography they want for their special day, and when we eventually did, l knew instantly these couple were every photographer’s dream.

There are so many different things that affects wedding photography; The weather, choice of venue and the type of people present, all makes a difference and contribute to the final output of any wedding ceremony.

Then, every now and again you have a wedding where everything just falls into place and you’re in sync with the couple. TITI & GBENGA’s was one of such.

I started off from the couple’s hotel (Days Hotel, Just off The M1).

TITI was looking stunning in her gown when she stepped out, after been made up by an amazing make-up artist (Ms.Kemi King) before we all drove off, for the business of the day.
The venue was the GREENVUE, Mill Hill London, Located on an 8 acres of green belt land. The service was held in a lovely tent, short and sweet, and we spent a little time on the lawn for photos before guest were ushered into the main hall for the reception.

The whole day went without a hitch and everyone was especially lovely to be around, I stayed until the evening as usual and I have some new friends in TITI & GBENGA.

It was such a great day!

Wishing TITI & GBENGA a very HAPPY MARRIED LIFE!!!

Here are some of my favorite photos:

Tunmisé (Baby Christening)

A few months ago Ngozi and Yomi added a new member to their lovely family: Master Tunmisé Akinfenwa.
So when it was time for Tunmisé to be christened and dedicated, Ngozi called me to arrange for the photos on the day. I arrived early at their Chadwell St. Mary’s home in Essex, and started taking shots of Tunmisé’s preparation before we drove to the church in Tilbury for the christening/dedication ceremony. Friends and families were later entertained at their home, there was plenty to eat and drink. Everyone had a nice time especially the kids who had an entertainer/magician who kept them happy all day long.

There were plenty of opportunities for family shots, portraits of the children and documentary photographs as everyone enjoyed themselves.

I do hope you like these pix:
