“Since the start of the new year, I’ve been really thinking about how I can find ways to begin to create for impact. While the brand work, shooting athletes, and musicians is great, I feel like the truly great artists are able to create imagery that affect their communities in a positive way for decades to come. -

With that being said, I present to you the #OurSeat campaign. A lot of people don’t know that individuals that identify as African American only make up 5% of of the advertisement and mass media industry. Over the past 4 weeks, I’ve been traveling to different companies on the east coast capturing portraits of that amazing 5% ; uplifting and illuminating the people that truly make this engine run. -

Stay tuned over the next week to not only see some of the beautiful black faces that I was able to capture, but to also hear about my experience during each stop of the tour. Happy Black History Month! #OurSeat”
