#WhyNotMe Photography Series

PROJECT:  #WhyNotMe Photography Series

Role: Creative Director

Project Summary:  #WhyNotMe is a photography campaign created to address the lack of opportunity for women of color in fashion.  We casted diverse black models  to affirm that their beauty should be praised.  The photography series was featured in Essence Magazine; both digital and print.

Excerpt from Essence written by Fashion Director Julee Wilson:  

“It’s no secret that the diversity we see in the world is rarely reflected in the imagery created by the top fashion and beauty brands. And it’s not for lack of beautiful brown faces ready to strike a pose.”
