Everyday Blackness:

Celebrating Exceptional Women


Everyday Blackness: Celebrating Exceptional Women is my new art documentary photography book, a  series of 25 portraits of  Black women with supporting quotes and text. The women are of  diverse ages and backgrounds, who defy stereotypes, forge unique paths and are exemplars of courage, tenacity, and resilience. Their roles include author, educator, entrepreneur, doctor, attorney – and more. This work dispels any reason to fear the "other” and reminds us that we are all connected on a deeper level, having more in common than not. These photos and stories offer upliftment, insight, and inspiration.
