#WCW - RIHANNA FOR HAPER'S BAZAAR ARABIA

I have been quite busy these last couple of weeks. I shot a few luxury stores here in Lagos and worked on other photo shoots with the totally AH!mazing Kelechi Amadi Obi! I learnt so much in the almost seven hours I spent with him and his assistants! He is so energetic it's unbelievable!  Anyway, once all the photos go to print and get released, I will be happy to share them with you.

Let's start with my very first #WCW

There is only one word to describe Robin Fenty in this shoot and that word is S T U N N I N G!!!

 After leaving more than a few jaws unhinged with the sheer floor length Adam Selman creation she wore to the 2014 CFDA awards, it's clear that Rihanna has no respect for fashion boundaries and I love it!

For those of you who thought Rihanna's tailors never have enough material to keep her body covered, feast your eyes on this!

 This time, she poses for Harper's Bazaar Arabia (July issue) in very modest couture pieces and proves that she can slay with or without much fabric on her body. She is photographed by Ruven Afanador in form fitting outfits that cover from head to toe including a cute chanel dress,  a Michael Cinco hooded gown, Balenciaga number and an Atelier Versace gown.

 

When I saw this cover I wanted to put down my ipad, ask my friend to stop the car, get out, stop traffic and ask everyone to  give Riri a round of applause!

 

From the mesh veil complete with the beautiful giant bow at the neck to the beaded head dress and body suit, gold face masks, this entire shoot did not disappoint one bit!

 

 

This photographer did an amazing job capturing Rihanna; this shot makes her look quite mysterious and that turban/headdress and intricately beaded sweater and red lip are the perfect combination!

 

I don't think you can ever go wrong in a chanel gown this amazing

This gown in so detailed, it's crazy. The beading on it if you look real close is magnificent! And I love the hood.

 

This was definitely without a doubt one of my favorite magazine shoots ever and now I can add Ruven Afanador to my list of favorite photographer. He's right up there with Patrick Demarchelier , Mario Testino and many others!
