“Roommates” It was an erotic story I wrote last Spring, When I sat down with Nala and remy the ECCENTRICsoul to plan our shoot, we decided to build a visual concept around my story. We were going to take an artistic interpretation the story with me as a writer toiling away with the story, Nala as my manifested imagination, and Remy behind the lens being the “eyes” of the male character by creating a series of dramatic images.  However, it ended up being more of a celebration of our diverse and natural Black beauty. The contrast of our lovely natural crowns, the shades of our brown...

The other day during this photo shoot, someone told me that not everyone can look at themselves in the mirror naked. Now, please, know that I am not talking about porno, or anything sexual; I am speaking on appreciating the skin that you are in. NO, you may not look like what you see on the cover of the magazines. SHOOT, I DON’T EITHER!!! I see now that we have began to hide our TRUE selves with our clothes and allowing the clothes to speak for us instead of what we truly are! We have become scared of what we are, and allow our clothes to say it, creating a state of not knowing who we are,...
