What does it mean to be seen? To feel seen. To see your own beauty? To see the beauty in others? To see our collective humanity? It takes a level of vulnerability that isn’t easily accessible. But it is very necessary. Especially as photographers. It’s a part of the job that we learn on the job. Our guest today believes that growth and vulnerability form the foundation of her work. Her work is her protest, her rebellion, her chance to strengthen and control the Black narrative that has been washed, overlooked, and undervalued. In summary, she wants the people she photographs to see their truest selves, in their own image because they are beautiful, their stories are beautiful and Black is beautiful.
