When it comes to black beauty, past, present, or future, Mario Epanya is Scholar!
This Cameroonian born, Parisian based- MUA turned hair stylist is now at the forefront of luxury black beauty and style by way of photography! Mario is a TRUE artist and continues to work every angle of his shoots. He is not the type of photographer that predetermines his shots; stages the model captures it then moves on. No, not at all! Rather he allows the Model to join him in collaboration while focusing on every area of the styling: the hair, the skin, the eyes, the clothes, the woman.
