Wow!!!! What you are about to see is Barbie & Ken's Nigerian traditional wedding, Barbie, her friends and family are all geared up in traditional wear for the ceremony. Nigerian photographer, Obi Nwokedi no doubt put in so much work to this, and his attention to details can't go unrecognised.
What inspired this, well he explained;
"So I got bored sometime last December, and then came across French Photographer Beatrice's Barbie and Ken's Wedding shoot, and with some inspiration from the black barbie shoot on Italian Vogue, I decided to create a Nigerian Traditional Wedding shoot with Barbie and Ken … it started off as a pretty simple shoot that would have taken about a week or so, and ended up taking up to 5 months. I had to enlist my wife to help out with the outfits, as well as searching the internet for all the little accessories. Anyway, I'm glad its now done, and glad I can get rid of the dolls … I was beginning to get weird looks from my son whenever I came home with a barbie and he's asking if it was for me or his baby sister …
Anyway I hope you ike the shoot".
