Earlier this month one of Ghana’s renowned and talented photography names, Emmanuel Bobbie of Bobpixel photography turned 41. (Happy belated birthday Uncle Bob)

If you asked me I think that’s quite a young age for a man who has accomplished so much in his life as a photographer. In 2005, a young Bobbie moved to Ghana to begin working as lensman after working and living in the United Kingdom for a number of years.

According to him, the passion for photography had always been with him especially during his days as a Graphic and design student at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology where reading a course in photography was not negotiable.

In his 2014 interview with Obed Boafo’s Enewsgh.com, the man who has his works spread across the city, on people’s phones, laptops and the nation as a whole admits that it wasn’t as rosy when he begun shooting despite the few number of professionals in the industry.

“The digital age had just started and there weren’t a lot of people in the industry like there is now. It was late 2005 when I came in and I heard a few names, and these were guys who were into photography for certain people. I didn’t have a place in the industry so I had to start shooting weddings and self-projects and people started seeing my works and it took off from there.” He recalls.

During the past week, she joined her colleagues and some Nigerian stars at the Marche Du Film for the premiere of Potato Pohato as part of the just ended 2017 Cannes Film Festival.

The beautiful damsel during her trip to exotic and luxurious French island showcased Ghanaian in a way that has never been seen. Nikki Samonas promoted Ghana by wearing only Ghanaian designers on and off the red carpet

Sammonas’ initiative is a step in the right direction as it not only pushes Ghanaian designers to the outside world but is also a source of revenue for these brands.

She was spotted in a ready-to-wear mustard piece from She By Bena and later slipped into outfits by Totally Ethnik, Christie Brown, Afromodtrends, and Quophi Akotuah for various which all complimented her stunning figure and glamorous makeup.  By all standards, Nikki Samonas was the best dressed in all these eye-candy local designers and we applaud her.
