Who run the world? Girls. This medicine gal surely will, when the time comes.

One of the greatest, most heartwarming compliments I've gotten was from doing this series. I've never really been the ultimate people person who would be the life of the party, but to hear that I could make someone feel like we're long lost friends the first time we meet is really something. It's always my pleasure to put my muses on ease and make them feel like they could be anything they want to be in front of my camera. I love hearing and sharing stories in between takes and while roaming, and making people smile the fake smile and laughing about it.

Taking photos would always be fun, but how you spend the time around it is much more important. Glad to spend time with this girl.

Celebrating the beauty of black, our sisters and brothers in their natural, earthy color, in light of what's happening in the world today. I know I may not, nor will not fully understand the hatred behind white racism against black because I'm also dark-skinned, or maybe because if I ever go to the US, I'd always be part of the 'minority', but I stick to the truth that I know that skin color does not determine one's mindset, attitude, and way of living.
