"Meeting Omotola Ekeinde” a photographer's perspective.

It was a Monday morning on a 25th of February 2019, my phone rang, I picked it up “Hello good morning” a response “Hello morning, My name is Omotola Ekeinde, I need a creative photographer” I frizzed for a minute, “Somebody recommended you, and we need you to create an idea for a PR promotion shoot but the snag is, we need the service a day after tomorrow”

I hesitated “a day after tomorrow” “is there a problem” she said “No, not at all, we would do our best” "Good! I would send you my personal assistants' number, he would send you a part payment and communicating with you going forward" that's good, we look forward to the project.

Like the superhero in my child hood carton, my thought traveled around the world as if the twelve dragons and the cave in Zulu were in crisis mood to set my thought free, finally I got an Idea.

I jumped up and pulled my pen like a sword as though a demon possessed, I wrote furiously at my note pad like stabbing an enemies’ stomach, for the next three minuets I scribbling my thought. "I got it" I said "the idea is aliv."

I immediately opened my search engine and surf the web to fine those linking puzzle of my imagination; stylist, makeup artist, location and most importantly the mood board.

I had worked for almost twenty four hours continually without blinking and mental fatigue start jacking in but I told myself "I would push until am done with my search".

I called my collaborators but there phone rang to the limit and time was an essence, so I jumped on a Go Kada to Lekki peninsula where we meet and concluded the plan.

All done we’re ready to ride. I meet my contact and chat. "Bamisebi Richard, I’m the perception architect”. “Charles, Omotola's PA”. "Graet" we shook hands.

We need to have a recce with Omotola before the shoot commence Charles agreed, immediately he called Omotola and she also agreed, we went straight to har room at the hotel were the shoot is scheduled.

Eventually I meet Omotola Ekeinde I was surprise it wasn't Omotola Jalade Ekeinde, although she was also as stunning as the Omotola Jelade my recce was concluded time to shoot.

It took the hole day to shoot at the end it was worth it. The next day we immediately began the post production, that took another day in the studio editing
