Nigerian-Jamaican photographer, Nadine Ijewere whose work depicts diversity and recognizes all kinds of beauty focuses her camera lens on pop icon Rihanna for Allure Magazine’s Best Of Beauty Issue.
Nadine’s portfolio spans across several big names in the fashion industry including doing an editorial for Stella Mcartney for the second installment of #StellaBy, where the fashion house collaborated with creative talents all over the world and now one of the biggest fashion and beauty icons on the planet, Rihanna
