SpelHouse Homecoming Portraits!

SpelHouse Homecoming Portraits!

I’ll be making portraits of Spelman and Morehouse alumni and students during Homecoming week, celebrating the legacy and pride that live in this community.

This project is personal for me — so this space and its stories mean a lot.

The portraits will be made in studio Oct 16-17 and are part of an ongoing body of work documenting Black life and culture across Atlanta. They may later be used for a self-funded exhibition and included in my portfolio for reviews and publication opportunities (think The New York Times, Smithsonian Magazine, etc.). This project is personal for me and I’m it treating with a special amount of care, I was born and raised in Atlanta, and my grandmother lived and raised my father and his siblings across the street from Spelman/Morehouse campuses. My daughter graduated from Spelman in 2024 and I was born and raised in Atlanta.

If you’re a alum or current student attending Homecoming and would like to participate, I’d love to include you.

Thinking about opening up the project to all HBCU alumni attending SpelHouse Homecoming.. if you’re interested sign a note below.
