Ife and Fola | African Traditional wedding

Ife and Fola tied the knot last weekend in a Nigerian traditional engagement wedding. The wedding was filled with joy, happiness and love as they prepare for their white wedding the next day.  Back in February 2009, I shot a beautiful couple session with the couple. You can see the highlights from the session here.

I had so much fun shooting this wedding and was able to capture the key moments as the event unfolds.   Below are some of my favorites images from the wedding.
