As mentioned in the previous post,  part 2 of Black Photographers Exist, is my list of several dope Black photographers. Also with the release of Beyonce's film, Black is King, this is a great  time to acknowledge Black creatives that have been working independently and behind the scenes to captures the stories of BIPOC.

This was my first time doing a full portrait shoot in over a month. I’ve been so caught up in shooting shows and other events that I haven’t been able to enjoy a portrait session. That’s why this time I wanted to do some things differently: 1. When shooting portraits I normally stick with an F stop of 1.8/2.8, but I remember reading photo tips by @jasminekerbel when she explained trying different f stops to get more of the model’s face in focus so I practiced that in this shoot. 2: Instead of editing my photos to be vibrant and saturated, I went with a more natural look. Thank you Knyves for trusting me to photograph you. What do you all think?
