I'm Esther, and I like to eat - but what really draws me in is what food reveals about people. I'm a food writer and photographer, and my work uses food as a way into people's stories - most fully in my series The Non-Conventionnelles, which profiles people whose lives don't follow the status quo.

My Nigerian heritage and UK upbringing surrounded me with recipes, food markets and ingredients that inspired my blog, Essie Eats. I’ve also written for publications including Vogue, Black Ballad and Melan Magazine.

I am based in the UK, but available for assignments worldwide!
