A five-year-old Nigerian girl’s photo has gone viral with many called her “the most beautiful girl alive.”

Nigerian photographer Mofe Bamuyiwa shared an image of the gorgeous girl, Jare, last week after setting up a photoshoot with her.

“Oh yes she’s human! She’s also an angel!” Lagos-based Bamuyiwa captioned the photo in which Jare has been praised for her doll-like features.

Oh yes she’s human ! She’s also an angel ! “J A R E “ I want to portray the interception between her childhood and adulthood so both stay timeless ! I could have made her smile and make her laugh out loud but I put her in their natural moments for us to see through their eyes ! Posing them as adults ! Was my trick to create it a timeless portrait !

According to Yahoo Lifestyle, the reaction to Jare’s photo prompted her mother to launch an Instagram page that also showcases her two other daughters Jomi, 7, and Joba, 10. The J3 sisters page has already garnered 58,000 followers, and they are available for modeling opportunities.
