Phemzy King

About

Two crafts. One point of view.

I'm Phemzy — a UI designer, photographer, and photo editor working from Lagos with clients around the world. I move between Figma and a camera body the same way: with intention, patience, and a love of the small details other people skip past.

My journey started with a camera in 2019 — chasing golden hour, learning light, and photographing weddings across Nigeria. Two years in, I discovered I could bring the same eye for composition and storytelling into digital product design.

Today I run a small studio-of-one that ships UI for fintech, SaaS, and e-commerce companies, while still shooting the events, portraits, and editorials that keep my eye sharp. Every deliverable — interface or image — gets the same finish: intentional, quiet, considered.

Design is composition. Photography is composition. My job is to arrange the elements so the story feels inevitable.
