Kenya’s Afrobeat

I am a photographer based in the Atlanta area. I am a self-taught photographer, but I do not like that term because I have learned so much from other photographers and I like giving credit where credit is due. There are three people that I have to give credit to for helping me in learning so much about photography and they are Michelle Hudddleston, Vincent Christie and Marc Turnley. Thank you guys for everything.

The models featured are earthSistas SimoneMonet and Namün. They are two of the most talented and professional models I have ever worked with. The concept of the images of SimoneMonet was of an African Queen. I gave her the red scarf and she did the rest. I was able to capture what I had visualized and so much more because she just took embodied that role as an African Queen. The concept behind Namün’s images was to show strength and balance. She has so much body control that she transitioned in and out of poses with ease. Thank you ladies for the great shoot. I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as I did shooting them.
