I teamed up with Leyelesi to help re-brand their image. The owner and founder, Aghogho Ogunlesi is brilliant. She is full of creative ideas and I am proud to be the photographer to bring them to life.

Aghogho was able to source these amazing outfits from Florence and Fifth for the shoot.

LeyeLesi is a sustainable and ethical luxury brand, that specialises in handbags, footwear and jewellery. African craftsmanship, heritage, creativity and sustainability are at the core of everything Leyelesi does.

Our handbags and footwear infuse luxurious textures of locally sourced, sustainable leathers and indigenous Adire fabrics, made in Nigeria.
Our jewellery is handcrafted in Ghana and Senegal using traditional African techniques native to local artisans; the lost wax casting technique that has been used for centuries by the Asante people of Ghana is one process used to create LeyeLesi jewellery.

As a brand, LeyeLesi aims to pay our local artisans a liveable wage and preserve aspects of traditional African craftmanship and heritage with each design.
