You never know when God is going to change your story! Case in point the Agege bread seller in this photo shoot with top selling UK/Nigerian rapper – Tinie Tempah which featured in last Sunday’s This Day Style.

According to celebrated photographer TY Bello who shot the spread, the bread seller just happened to walk on to the set,
She wrote,
Everyone has been asking if this lady is a model. It was just perfect coincidence … She just happened to be walking by while I photographed. It happened so fast. She definitely SHOULD be a model. .. I’m happy to help her build a portfolio if she’s interested.
3 days later she found the bread seller after someone identified her through Facebook. She is Jumoke Sunday, a 27yr old mother of two, who can only speak Yoruba.

After photographer TY found her, she treated her to a photoshoot, with the help of Bimpe Onakoya to do her makeup and Zubby Definition to take care of her hair.

TY wrote,

They were all at the studio within an hour and we had the most amazing shoot with her. I’ve also spoken to a few people about the best way to help move her forward and reunite her with her family . … The process has already begone and I’ll figure out the best way to have anyone who wants to be part of the journey. Meeting and photographing her has inspired us all and we can’t wait for the good that will come to her from all of this to unfold . She doesn’t speak English well but here, she was explaining how she found us . I had sent an assistant , as many of you advised, to leave a message with the people in the area where we photographed her…So here she is.
