What if you had crossed paths with your soulmate long before you even realised? For Morenikeji and Adetayo, it all began when they were just teenagers in secondary school.

Years later, they reconnected when Adetayo needed a model for his shoot, and the beautiful Morenikeji was the perfect choice. She showed up, and not only did he shoot photos, but he also decided to shoot his shot at love — and thankfully, he didn’t miss! Now, he has captured her heart, and these two are on their way to forever. Their love story is such a sweet reminder that sometimes, the person meant for you may have been right there all along. 😍

Enjoy their pre-wedding shoot and love story below:

Their love story as shared by Morenikeji:

Our love story started in secondary school. We were both art students and would casually say hi to each other—nothing serious at all. After secondary school, we got each other’s numbers through school groups, and one day, Mr Photographer himself asked me to model for him. And I, being a hot girl, said no problem! We did the shoot, and I went home, not knowing that was just the beginning.

One day, he slid into my DM and told me how he felt about me. To be honest, I liked him too, but as a babe, small shakara was necessary. 🤭😂 After some persistence and plenty of conversations, we officially started dating in August 2021. Four years later, he proposed to me on my birthday, with our family and friends all in on the surprise even though I had dreamt about the proposal three times. Of course, I said YES!
