THE MAN BEHIND THE LENS
Hi there, I’m Tayo!
I’m a Derby based photographer with years of experience covering weddings all over the UK and abroad. Many clients have trusted me over the years to provide exceptional, high-end photography coverage for their multicultural weddings, corporate events, and social gatherings all over the country.
HOW DID IT ALL START?
My love for photography goes back as far as my childhood. I was absolutely fascinated by the process of converting films to negatives and prints and soon found myself becoming ‘that person’ – you know, the designated photographer for family and friends
Then…I did something ‘crazy’ in 2009 – I used my student loan to purchase my first digital camera whilst studying to become an Aerospace Engineer. With raw passion and curiosity, I quickly deepened my love for digital photography, teaching myself everything I know and practising at every given opportunity. Voila! Suddenly, I was being offered cash by family, friends, and strangers to cover their events.
WHY WEDDINGS?
For me, wedding photography is a unique art. No two weddings are ever the same. Each comes with a powerful cocktail of extraordinary emotions and thrilling moments. The privilege of documenting magical moments from one of the happiest days of my clients’ lives is incredibly fulfilling. My aim is simple: to tell the unique story of your wedding day in beautifully enhanced images that distinctively represent you.
SO, ENGINEERING + PHOTOGRAPHY – WHAT’S THE LINK?
Precision and problem solving. Whether I am building high-quality, intricate parts for the aerospace industry or capturing sublime photographs for clients, I am absolutely obsessed with precision. With a keen eye for detail and meticulous planning, you can be confident that nothing will be left to chance when I cover your wedding. Problem solving is woven into my DNA as an engineer and I transfer the same approach to my photography projects. If a client wants something, I simply figure out how to get it done. I love coming up with creative solutions and taking risks to deliver spectacular results for my clients.
