“Not me forgetting that other countries don’t write dates like we do 🤣🤣🤣”

@juniorwaldorf advised:

“Beautiful cover, but it’s missing the title/your name. It’s important for your brand to be prominently displayed. This can be done without compromising the beauty of the image. Many photographers are leading teams to believe that graphic design is outdated, but they are wrong.”

@rudeBearrr gushed:

“Thank you, Tyla, for saving the summer 🥹”

@Bigbardisett said:

“Let’s normalise putting the month first😭😭😭playing with us.”

@Mencast92 replied:

“I'm waiting for the collaboration with Queen Shakira.”

@Tylastana

“I just hope you don't pull that move again, mother 😕”
