In Nigeria, the number of women photographers has drastically increased since the emergence of color photo laboratories and more sophisticated equipment automation. If the profession has considerably feminized itself over the past ten years in the South-West, nothing of the kind has yet happened in the rest of the country. Many young girls are placed by their parents with a studio, due to lack of means to offer them a better education. Whence an over-feminization of apprenticeship, which can but pose problems to professional authorities, who are much concerned about the future of the profession
