Diamond in the rough! Photographer Kelechi Amadi Obi shares stunning photos of a pillow seller he saw on the street

Few months after former bread seller Olajumoke Orisaguna landed a modelling contract upon walking in to shot during a photo-shoot for pop star Tinie Tempah by ace Nigerian photographer TY Bello, another renowned photographer have discovered yet another diamond in the rough.

Kelechi Amadi-Obi shared photos of a young pillow seller he saw on Broad street, Lagos during a shoot with Jidenna.

"This is Bukola . Some weeks back I was shooting @jidenna on Broad street Lagos and in between takes I saw her across the street selling pillows . Had to call her and give my number. " if you're interested in modeling please give me a call" I said. Well she came to the studio and I called my number one MUA @bimpeonakoya and this is what we came up with. I think she will make a great model. What do you think?"

What do we think? She will make a fantastic model!

      She has very subtle features. In the modelling world, it's referred to as "Universal Appeal", meaning her aesthetics transcend racial characteristics identified with a particular race.

    This is more like it, a natural not that olajumoke nonsense.this one will go far oh. My take is that they should have helped olajmoke with some money to get her established doing business not forcing modelling on her.

    Bukola is prettier than Olajumoke though Olajumoke isnt bad either. Poverty has caused many to waste their talents.
