Hello Steemians, My name is Shola Oke and i'm new on steemit.
First of all I want to thank for introducing me to the steemit universe, I’m so happy to be here.
I’m 25 years old, I’ve lived in Lagos, Nigeria all my life.
My birth month is august.
Favorite Color- Purple
My Full name is Oluwasolabomi Esther (Try To Pronounce it) it means God has covered me with wealth.
I’m the third of 4 kids, were all girls, I'm so thankful for them.
Here's a picture of us before and after
can you spot me out?
I was told by my mum that while I was in her belly, the two scans she had of me showed that I was a boy, so everyone was surprised when I came out as a girl, seemed like God had a very different plan for me so he changed me at the last minute or the scan machines they used were faulty LOL.
That's my mum and i on my first birthday.
I have two dogs named Lucy and Lucky whom I love so very much.
Me in four words
Passionate- Honest-Adventurous-Curious
What I do for a living
I’m a full time photographer, I’ve been doing that for a year now.
Photography is something I had always wanted to do ever since I got my first camera at the age of 13. Capturing moments to look back on makes me feel fulfilled. I got paid for my first photography job when I was 15. My mum’s friend was having a birthday party and she asked me if I could shoot the whole event, I immediately jumped at the opportunity. After that I had to focus on school and getting a job because my parents wanted me to have a proper 9-5 job because they were afraid of the stability of my income. So yeah, I went to school, graduated with good grades and then worked for 4 years (2 years in an advertising agency and last 2 years in an insurance company). Last year I resigned from the insurance company to focus on photography and ever since then it’s been amazing. Here are some of my works
