The work of Awol Erizku. My inspiration for most of my attempts at portrait shots. He was first "discovered" by mainstream media when he/Beyonce posted Queen Bee's maturity shots. It was simplistic, the beauty shining through with every little detail involved. For the photo of Beyonce, the flowers stuck out, but then so did her veil and equally, her bump. The portrait of the black female embodying the "black Mary and Jesus" should've been picked up more by social media users as it symbolizes black minorities in the spotlight to worship. It's this urban masterpiece.
