Celebrity photographer, TY Bello is forty!

She clocked the milestone yesterday, January 14th and shared her excitement at hitting the landmark age on Instagram by sharing some photos.

The birthday girl moved slightly away from her custom of wearing one solid colour, as she wore a blue cold shoulder dress with white trimmings and embroidery which showed off her feminine side.

Alongside the pictures, she wrote;  “So this girl is 40 ..counting the years and wondering how .. but it’s true ..I was born on the 14th of January 1978 .. UCH , Ibadan . God has made my life so beautiful. I’ve lived passionately in this colorful love -bubble … I’m so excited to be here …full of hopes and dreams .. SooooooooHAPPY !! OOoooo Sooooo grateful #happybirthdaytome“

She also announced that the best gift she got for her fortieth was her new collaboration with Canon, the camera makers.
