This photo series part 1 of 6 is truly my heart & soul. I wanted to showcase the black woman as a strong, blossoming vessel. Too manny times black women have been conveyed and stereotyped as loud, harsh, mean, having too much attitude, overbearing, wild, and the list goes on. These words are hurtful and do not in any way resonate with who we are. We are, and will always be strong, effervescent, nurturing, boundless, spiritually filled magical black women.

I want little black girls and women to always be reminded to love the skin they were blessed with, and never allowing anyone to question your naturally sunkissed skin.
