Well done Akorede. Everyone has been commending the photographs you took of my husband and I. Someone who is also a photographer said it was very very professional!!! Thank you so much for the photoshoot! I wasn’t expecting such a great team of styling and lighting artists. I thought it would simply be a one-man job [that’s what I’ve been used to] but you were well prepared and executed a good job. All my friends want me to refer you to them. Thank you so much for the lovely pictures. I look forward to another… You certainly are going places

Akorede is such a delight. Thank you for the skillfulness and great professionality. This one guy I would recommend again and again! Cheers to many more sessions in the future.

It was the celebrity treatment for me. What?! I saw a review and thought to myself “This is what I want!” Honestly, I don’t regret my decision. How defined and organized the process was, how everyone worked together patiently to create amazingness. Thank you sir. Thanks to everyone on the team. We should do this again sometime.

Akorede, it’s such a lovely effort you’re putting into your photography. The photo session you did for myself and my husband was really lovely and creative. Your relationship with client is really good, and the delivery of the portraits is timely. Please keep that up.

I heard about Akorede Portraits from a friend so I went to their Instagram page to check out some of their work... I loved what I saw; the clarity of the pictures, unique styles and the beautiful creation literally cut my heart. I had to choose them for my portrait and I wasn't disappointed when my work came out 😘✌🏽

The first time I saw your work was on a relative’s phone last year and he told me you were expensive, I made up my mind to book you at all cost for my next portrait. Omo, you are good, I don’t know how you do it, but every of your work is beautiful
In 2015, four students of Architecture at Obafemi Awolowo University decided to start a media business that would include photography and videography services. It Didn’t work out, and after few years, the business was shut down and all partners went separate ways.
But it was already too late, Akorede had fallen in love with photography and in the months and years that followed … he buried himself in books and research on the art of portrait photography … attended workshops … learnt under masters … had extra years in school … went back into research … burnt midnight candles …
And after what felt like a lifetime to him, he mastered the wizardry of creating portrait photography and a one-of-a-kind experience for people who could afford it.
